Food Scene

Best BBQ ( I think it is technically considered BBQ). Lots of side options. If you go during the dinner hour, it will be busy. Go for an early dinner, or late dinner to avoid the crowd. Try the yuca!

Gelato! Gelato! Gelato! Stop by for dessert and take a walk along the river. You can order multiple flavors, so don't limit yourself!

Shopping

Only open til 5pm. They are a small cafe that draws a crowd, so expect a line during the noon hour. They serve fantastic Mediterranean cuisine.

Drive to the circle drive in front of the town homes and turn towards the city. Best place to view the skyline (in my opinion.)

Arts & Culture

Call ahead to check availability. Don't buy your tickets online or over the phone. Show up an hour to thirty mins early and pay cash for a rush ticket. Much cheaper and great seats!
