Where do restaurant industry types hang out for after-work food and drink? Uptown's Nightingale, of course, drawn by the late hours (the kitchen cooks to 1 a.m. daily), the welcoming surroundings, a splashy cocktail roster and, most especially, the eclectic menu of scrupulously prepared shared plates (including a cheeseburger that can be described only as epic), from chef/co-owner Carrie McCabe-Johnston. 2551 Lyndale Av. S., Mpls., 612-354-7060,
