Tiny Minneapolis restaurant doomed by elusive jinx
The world’s smallest restaurant, a three by eight feet hole in the wall in Minneapolis, closed after a string of bad luck hit every owner. Started by a downtown church men’s club, it had a single cook, one set of salt and pepper shakers, a two burner stove, a coffee pot, and no seating or proper dining amenities. Each proprietor faced misfortune from illness to injury and marriage, with locals unsure if the jinx caused the decline or merely followed the unlucky stream.
