Shafer MN Eichten's Bistro Update

[loki]

Eichten's Bistro was highly recommended to me a few months ago. It's located near Shafer MN about 50 miles from the Twin Cities.

But the website seems to say that they are closed. Anybody know more about it. Is it just changing hands? Is the chef working somewhere else? Stories about it from the past.

Here is the website: http://www.eichtensbistro.com/index.php

I want to take my parents to a place like this over the holidays - any other suggestions in East Central MN or NW Wisconson?

Okay, it's been eight days, and no replies. I'm guessing the Minnesota contingent would have a reply similar to mine, which follows...

Never heard of it. I know nothing about the dining scene in that part of the state (Lindstrom, Chisago Lakes, Taylors Falls), and even less across the St. Croix (St. Croix Falls, Rice Lake, Osceola).

So. . . Looks like you have to check it out for all of us. Please report back.
