Nobody mentioned these but exploring Google Maps found:
BRGR Kitchen and Bar. Good place. Really decent prices. Excellent Reuben.
We hopped in a cab because we were hungry! 4 min drive was $15+tip. The 10 min walk back wasn’t as flat as Google Maps says it would be but worth the walk. Ask for Emily as your waitress. Angelo, the manager, sat and talked with us about local places. He recommended a German restaurant, Grünauer and that has sauerbraten on Saturday night. That’s where we’ll be!
He recommends the free trolley to Union Statio and using the Sky Walk to go to Crown Center. Look at the artwork on Sky Walk as you go across.
In the opposite direction is River Market also accessible on free trolley. You get the trolley on Main at 12th. I’ll be getting used to walking that incline. Angelo loves the River Market on Saturday to people watch, get veggies, and flowers. In the back of the spice place, at a small counter, an older woman makes spicy potato filled pastries $3 each that he loves. Emily loves Sunday at the River Market with more flea Market type shopping.
Back to Google finds:
Breakast and lunch at https://www.meshuggahbagels.com/
Banksia, an Australian bakery and cafe for breakfast, lunch, and dinner https://banksiabakehouse.com/
On the walk back, we ran into needlepoint ladies at Costentino’s, a huge market. Lots of food options with tables. They said good Gelato! We got water and a T-shirt for Bill.
We’ll explore along the trolley route tomorrow.
From our window, we have an awesome view. We can see a ballpark! Not Kaufman Field as I thought I itially. A city ballpark field is lit up in the upper left corner of the photo. Ferris wheel will offer a great view. That round weird disc building is the Kaufman Performing Arts Center. And, the towers are actually sculptures called the Bartle Hall Sky Stations.
Lots to explore.
