As a California transplant, I didn't think I would be able to find authentic Southeast Asian food in MN. Peninsula has a boisterous atmosphere and excellent Indian/Malay/Chinese food--comparable to Malaysian/Singaporean-Chinese haunts in Los Angeles.
Noodles are great. Char Quay Tiao is as good as I had in Singapore.
The mango chicken is a popular pick with the local MN's--but a little too Westernized for me.
This is a great place to meet up with friends or to take a date for some tasty Southeast Asian food. Highly recommended.
The only drawback seems to be the lack of parking in the area.
Pros: authentic Southeast Asian Food; fun atmosphere
Cons: parking
