Diane's Place in Northeast Minneapolis was named Restaurant of the Year by Food & Wine Magazine.
Why it matters: It's not just a major accolade for chef Diane Moua. The award also raises awareness of Hmong cuisine to the rest of the country.
Diane's Place was recently reviewed alongside Yia Vang's Vinai by the New York Times under the headline "Two Restaurants Are Making Minneapolis the American Capital of Hmong Food."
