In preparation for Ragbrai, we are trying to ride our bikes at least one weekday evening a week – often Tuesdays so we can eat at Tacopocalypse stand outside the Cumming Tap (in the small town of Cumming, Iowa.) But sometimes we ride on Wednesday or Thursday on the Great Western Trail south from Des Moines when tacos aren’t an option at Cumming Tap (Wednesday, we discovered last week, is steak night there, which is a bit heavy for us.)
So I was pleased to see other options available in Jennifer Miller’s latest excellent food column for the Des Moines Register. See below! They’re not in Cumming but they are along our bike route, which includes Gray’s Lake (where Confluence Brewing is located) and the trail at 63rd and Grand (where Pal Joey’s Lounge is).
Here’s the options:
TUESDAY Magnolia Kitchen & Grocery at Pal Joey’s Lounge; Tacopacalypse at Cumming Tap
WEDNESDAY Magnolia Kitchen & Grocery at Confluence Brewing
THURSDAY Magnolia Kitchen & Grocery at 515 Brewing on Friday evenings or The Levee, patio on the east end of Court Avenue. Woody’s Smoke Shack food, and Confluence beers. open 4 p.m. to midnight Thursday.
FRIDAY The Levee, patio on the east end of Court Avenue. Woody’s Smoke Shack food, and Confluence beers. open 4 p.m. to midnight Thursday.
SATURDAY The Levee, patio on the east end of Court Avenue. Woody’s Smoke Shack food, and Confluence beers. open 9 p.m. to midnight
