Legal notice
Lake & Loaf writes about bread, markets and neighbourhoods in Minneapolis and Saint Paul. The identity details that French law asks of an online publication come first, followed by the rules our food guides follow.
Not the café
Lake & Loaf is an independent guide. It is not affiliated with Café Levain, the Linden Hills restaurant whose website once used cafelevain.com, nor with that restaurant's owners, and it does not speak for any restaurant, bakery or market it mentions.

How the food guides are checked
Neighbourhood histories lean on city and county records, the Minnesota Historical Society and neighbourhood associations; market seasons and produce calendars on the bodies that publish them, labelled with the year they apply to. Recipes give weights and temperatures and carry food-safety advice from official sources such as the USDA, the FDA and University of Minnesota Extension. Lake & Loaf never reviews or rates restaurants, takes free meals, publishes menus or prices, or sells anything, and no recipe is dietary or medical advice.
Credits and rights
