Iven’s will open again at 5:00 P.M. on Mother’s Day. Choose from our regular menu plus a “Surf and Turf” Special. “Moms” will receive a free glass of Champagne.

May Menu:
Chef Tim is reminiscing on his winter vacation and has created a fun menu of “Conch Cuisine”—the unmistakable food of the Florida Keys:
 

Conch Fritters with mango slaw and chile honey
Red Snapper Ceviche with tostones and tropical fruit
Baked Oysters with habanero-citrus butter and grilled onion vinegar
“United Street Platter”, consisting of Stone Crab Claws
with mustard sauce, Orange-Chili Grilled Shrimp, Roast Pork
Sofrito with black beans, saffron rice and Bobby’s bread
Key Lime Pie with pina colada cream and dark rum

 

Our regular menu is changing with the season and you will find new additions throughout. A Trio of South American Ceviches is on our “Starter” selections changing daily with a selection of fresh fish and seafood. The “Lighter Bar” menu has added a Warm Roasted Beet Salad with gorgonzola goughere.

Food & Wine Magazine is honoring 20 years of “Top Chefs” in Aspen, Colorado June 13-15. Iven’s Executive Chef will enjoy a weekend of cooking demonstrations, food samplings, wine tasting and camaraderie with other “Best New Chefs” from the past 20 years. (Click here to see what those chefs, including our Chef Tim from year 1991, are up to today).

Living at the Water’s Edge:

The Minneapolis Star Tribune inserted a specialty publication in their Saturday, April 26 edition focusing on waterside living in Minnesota. Brainerd Lakes Chamber highlighted the year-round recreation offered in the beautiful lakes area encouraging visitors. We were delighted to have Iven’s written up as “where to eat when you come in off the lake”.

Ladies Night Out:
Tess Taylor of WJJY will be the hostess on Thursday, May 8 for Ladies Night Out. She is hoping to meet you on the deck or else in our Martini Bar!

Iven’s on the Way:
If you can dream it, we can help you plan it! Call Angee at 218-824-1406—we’ll work with you to make your event memorable!
