Friday Food Tour 5.02.13

I am soooo not talking about our weather situation here in central Iowa. I mean, seriously, there's supposed to be a baseball game tonight! So what's new for the food tour?

We haven't been to Noah's Ark in ages, and who knows why. So I was glad to see this review from Slaking Fool to remind me of all of the awesome food we're missing. Everything looked so tasty!

What do you think - is it true that French women don't get fat? Well, you can find out at' Fit, Fast, and French,' a cooking class by Wini Moranville on May 18 from 10am - 1pm at Baru 66. The class costs $75 per person and includes lunch, with wine. More information here.

I loved this in-depth look at pizza in Des Moines that was featured in Relish. So much history and so many styles of pizza - one of my favorite foods - I'm making my 'must visit' list for pizza pies now.

Eat Play Love Des Moines recently visited another great Italian restaurant in Des Moines, Tumea & Sons. Check out the review here, with some nice photos of the food they enjoyed.

Because I'm refusing to stall the beginning of spring weather (grrr...), I went looking for some refreshing spring cocktails and came across this post from Drinking in America - On the Menu: Grapefruit Cocktails. I love grapefruit so I am committed to trying every one of these drinks. Bring it on, spring!

Don't forget! The Des Moines Farmer's Market opens on Saturday! Enjoy your weekend.
