Vikings' Cook cooked for family after learning restaurant's kitchen was closed
Following his first career NFL game Monday night, Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook brought his family to a Minneapolis restaurant for a celebratory meal. There was just one problem: The kitchen was closed for the night.
Yoom Nguyen, owner of the Lotus Uptown, told Joe Nelson of GoMN that he jokingly said Cook would have to whip up something himself if he wanted to eat there. With some help from Nguyen, he did exactly that, making chicken and shrimp lo mein.
He said he was hungry. My chefs left for the night. Sooooo you gonna have to cook my brother.

"He's a natural," Nguyen said. "I helped him scoop it into the bowl. When he brought the food out to his family, they didn't believe he was the one that cooked it."
