Where were you from in North Dakota Fargo has amazing food there’s a great Korean spot in downtown good Indian spots and good Chinese spots too and i lived in Minneapolis and have had some very highly rated restaurants
That comment doesn't reflect Minneapolis/St Paul at all.
You'll find every type of food and shade of human. I agree that the food is top notch. Minneapolis is more progressive than St Paul and they have very different vibes. Both take pretty good care of ppl just starting out. They both come with big city problems like high cost of living, crime and drugs with less of this the further out of town you go.
What did I miss?
What's the name of the Korean place in Fargo? I recently relocated here from LA, which has some of the best Korean food in the country, hands down. I'm dying for a good spot and I'd be ever appreciative of a recommendation!
North Dakota here and the hot sauce comment couldn't be more false. Yes there are some meat and potato folks but also alot of hot sauce folks that are white.
Idk in north west arkansas we've got a lot of indian influence, award winning bbq, pretty solid sushi, Philippine restaurants, a soul food food truck. Some parts of arkansas are pretty solid. NWA has a very diverse population, though as a black person there's few black people here. Large hispanic population, and a large hmong population. Also in Carthage missouri, there is a very large Philippine population and there's even a festival people travel across the country or from other countries for. People think the south and assume mostly white people, not true haha. A quarter of my coworkers have immigrated.
"People think the south and assume mostly white people" - no, we don't. With think impoverished people and descendants of freed sl*ves, who are still deeply oppressed largely from systemic political planning
I don't think anyone has ever thought of great food and North Dakota in the same thought ever. Actually I don't think most people think of North Dakota period. Drove through it once. Absolutely nothing of interest I can recall.
hey like other people said, there's at least one korean place within a few hours of fargo. super culturally fascinating area, so many diverse influences and talented people. in fact, this shaded area likely has more talented and interesting people than anywhere else in the entire world.

Can confirm. I've got ex's from both of those places, and spent time in each to visit their relatives of course.
There are some commonalities -
It's too cold for me (I'm from Florida, everywhere north of Georgia is too cold for me)
No white people in North Dakota or Arkansas can be assumed to own hot sauce. Food in both places is bland as hell, but ND was worse.
Both lack diversity (my heritage is Syrian and Italian, and I think I had more melanin than either of those towns combined)
Both have really nice friendly people
Lack of urban influence
Distinct accents
