Friday Food Tour 3.02.12

I can't believe it's March already. Usually the winter just drags on and on, but this year it seemed to just float by. I'm really looking forward to hanging out on my patio with a nice cool adult beverage watching Grant slave away at the grill. Won't be long now! But let's check out the Food Tour for this week.

Cityview's Food Dude gave us a nice recap of Des Moines' Blue Ribbon Bacon Fest this past week. Mmmm, bacon.

Mexican sounds kinda good for lunch today, don't you think? Read this Why Eat at a chain Wednesday review of Raul's and you might want to head there.

I've been wondering about the breaded tenderloin at Zombie Burger every since they introduced it back in December. But leave it to Des Loines to get there and give us the scoop on this monster loin.

Of course, the big news this past week was the announcement of the winners of Cityview's 'Best Of' readers' poll. If you're into that sort of thing, here are the results for the Eats category.

And finally, if you follow Iowa Foodie at all, you know we love us some wine. So when I saw this interesting invention on Drinking in America, I was actually quite intrigued. It's the corkcicle - how did I ever live without it?

Have a fun weekend.
