Prince-inspired Menu at the Paisley Park Museum
A couple of weeks ago, Prince's studio officially became a museum. At a recent media event, the museum shared a Prince-inspired menu. Dishes like pancakes, jerk popcorn, Minnesota Grilled Chesese were featured on the menu. There is no news on whether the museum has plans on creating a restaurant, but we hope so.
