Krave Café opened in Aberdeen in August of 2024. They are currently ranked by 605 magazine as South Dakota’s best bistro.
Krave is also the only location for crêpes in about four hours’ travel time from their current location on Eisenhower Circle.
Dominika Blum, the owner of the café, was inspired to open Krave by her extensive travels and early life in Poland. She has over 20 years of restaurant experience as well as a degree in architecture.
Krave’s atmosphere is akin to a local bistro in Europe.
“We take pride in cultivating a family-friendly yet elegant environment, where thoughtful touches like creative menu names, purse holders and various seating arrangements set us apart,” Blum said. “For us, it’s more than running a restaurant; it’s about fostering meaningful connections, building a legacy of care and delivering outstanding service that keeps our guests craving Krave.”
Blum said her goal for her business is to inspire joy with every bite and sip, referencing its tagline “Sips, Eats, Sweets.”
The restaurant’s baker, Mary Collins, arrives at four in the morning and makes all of Krave’s pastries.
“As for baked goods,” Blum said, “our biscones, a divine marriage between a biscuit and a scone, are a hands-down favorite, followed by our lemon bread and crinkle bars. Guests rave about them every time, and for good reason — they’re simply irresistible.”
The experience in Krave Café doesn’t stop at the food.
“One of the things I’m most excited about is seeing our incredible team continue to thrive,” Blum said. “Watching them grow both professionally and personally has been incredibly rewarding.”
She said she is looking forward to new opportunities for growth with both the restaurant and its employees. But for now, she is excited about the menu — which includes its best seller — crepes.
Krave’s best seller as far as crêpes go is the Monte Cristo, which features ham, turkey, white cheddar, Dijon mustard, raspberry jam, and powdered sugar. When it comes to teas, however, the coconut green tea is the cafe’s most demanded drink.
“Krave After Dark Series” is what Krave Café becomes after hours. The café becomes an event space, which hosts everything from painting classes to lessons in etiquette. Blum also aims to offer live music with local musicians at least once a month. For a schedule of events, find Krave on Facebook or at www.welovekrave.com.
“Whether enjoying a café con miel while studying, sharing a pot of tea with a friend, or sparking human connection and conversation, Krave was designed to fill that need,” said Blum.
Krave Café is located at 1801 Eisenhower Circle, Aberdeen. Its hours are 7 a.m. – 7 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 7 a.m. – 8:30 p.m. Friday, 8 a.m. – 8:30 p.m. Saturday and 11 a.m. – 3 p.m. Sunday.

South Dakota confirms three cyclosporiasis cases as CDC investigates growing outbreak
RAPID CITY, S.D. (KOTA) – The South Dakota Department of Health has confirmed three cases of cyclosporiasis as health officials across the country investigate a growing outbreak of the parasitic illness.
According to the department’s Infectious Disease Dashboard, two cases have been reported in Pennington County and one case in Clay County.
The South Dakota cases come as the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports more than 1,600 probable cases in 34 states. Nationwide, more than 140 people have been hospitalized.
Cyclosporiasis is caused by the microscopic parasite Cyclospora cayetanensis, which infects the intestines and can cause severe gastrointestinal illness. Symptoms include watery or explosive diarrhea, nausea, stomach cramps, bloating and fatigue.
Unlike many common stomach illnesses that clear within a couple of days, cyclosporiasis can stick around for weeks or even months if left untreated.
Health experts say the parasite has most commonly been linked to contaminated fresh produce, including lettuce, basil, cilantro and raspberries. The parasite can also spread through contaminated water, including swimming pools and splash pads if contaminated water is swallowed. Officials note that Cyclospora is resistant to chlorine and bleach, meaning it can survive in properly chlorinated pools.
Federal investigators continue to search for the source of the nationwide outbreak, while The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services said it identified lettuce and other salad greens as a potential source. The FDA said its traceback investigation is focusing on multiple produce items consumed by people who became sick.
Meanwhile, Taco Bell announced Tuesday that it has voluntarily and temporarily removed limited ingredients at select restaurants as a precaution while public health officials continue their investigation. The company said it is monitoring the situation and following guidance from health authorities. Federal officials have not identified Taco Bell or any other restaurant chain as the confirmed source of the outbreak.
The South Dakota Department of Health has not announced whether the state’s three reported cases are connected to the ongoing multistate outbreak.
Health officials recommend washing fresh produce thoroughly before eating it, although experts caution that washing may not completely remove the hardy parasite. Cooking fruits and vegetables can further reduce the risk of infection.
Anyone experiencing severe diarrhea or symptoms lasting longer than 48 hours should contact a healthcare provider. Early diagnosis and treatment can help shorten the illness and reduce complications.
