So, what are your plans for the weekend? Are you running Dam to Dam? Heading out to the Principal Charity Classic (where the other half of Iowa Foodie will be today)? With long, busy weekends every weekend in May, I'm looking forward to doing a whole lot of nothing - or maybe some serious patio sitting.
Food Dude fills us in on all thats been happening at Proof since it changed hands recently. When you take a look at the photos, you'll see it's all good!
Looks like Trostel's Greenbriar Restaurant in Johnston recently announced their summer live music schedule, as well as some new summer menu changes. Get the whole scoop from this examiner.com post.
Des Loines headed to Stanton for his latest tenderloin review. This one kind of threw me for a loop - it's breaded, then cooked on a flat top grill. Check it out here.
Don't forget the Top Chef Challenge 2012 will be happening on June 28 at the Iowa Culinary Institute at DMACC. dsm magazine lets us in on the three chefs that have been chosen to create an entree that will be judged on taste, originality and presentation.
And finally, you may want to purchase your tickets to the Iowa Craft Brew Festival soon! The event, which was a sell-out last year, will be held on Saturday, June 16, from 1 - 5pm on the Locust St. bridge in downtown Des Moines. More than 25 Iowa breweries and 100+ craft beers, music, food - it's sure to be a good time!
Enjoy your weekend.
