Regional foodservice management company Taher, Inc., has opened the latest in its string of commercial restaurant operations in a haunted former mansion in downtown St. Paul, MN. Originally an onsite dining services provider operating in the K-12, higher education, B&I and healthcare segments, Taher in the past year has opened four commercial eateries in Minnesota’s Twin Cities area (Taher is headquartered in nearby Minnetonka).
They include the Wayzata Eatery in Wayzata, the Alaska Eatery & Glacier Bar in St. Louis Park, the Nordeast Eatery in Minneapolis and now Forepaugh’s, located in the ornate dwelling built by local business tycoon Joseph Forepaugh in 1870. Both Forepaugh and his reputed mistress committed suicide in the house and local legend says their ghosts haunt the mansion to this day.
