We’ve got ways to win the cutthroat home buying game in MN. Plus we’re taking you inside the best places in the Twin Cities for Vietnamese food and the old-school fabric warehouse that’s an extravaganza of sewing supplies for DIY fashionistas. Our expert on going out also brings you a couple of fun, only-in-Minnesota things you can do exclusively this weekend – find out what they are before it’s too late.

Read more about the fabric store Minnesotans are flocking to, trends in housing and the local Vietnamese food we talked about in this episode.

This week our guests are Features Reporter Rachel Hutton, Real Estate Reporter Jim Buchta, Assistant Food Editor Nancy Ngo and Food and Culture Digital Producer Abby Sliva.
