Anybody from the Grand Forks, ND area? I'll be there next week, just wanted to get a taste for the place....points of interest, good places to eat, good watering holes..etc.

Gonna move this to ''meeting place'', as more appropriate. Hopefully some folks will tune in to help.

Not sure if this reply comes to late, but I'll give it a shot as I went to school there. For places to eat check out Whitey's in East Grand Forks, it's a local icon. They were completely wiped out in the '97 flood and rebuilt. There is also a Cabela's in EGF in the same area as Whitey's. There is also a good place in downtown Grand Forks called Joe DiMaggio's, they have pretty good burgers from what I remember. Not sure of the hours but if you get a chance, take a walk through UND's hockey arena...it rivals many of today's NHL rinks. Hope that helps, it's been a few years since I was there so I'm not up to date on the latest bars and any new resturants that may have popped up.
