🍦 Tour de Platt Park
If you’re looking to make an evening in Platt Park, start by getting a cold pint of the “Nutorious Pistachio Cream Ale” over at Platt Park Brewing. Then, make your way over to Quiero Arepas on Pearl for a savory bite before they close at 8 p.m. (2 p.m. on Sundays). Round out your visit to the neighborhood with a scoop of cookies and cream from Sweet Cow!
🍣 Sushi Lunch Special? Say Less.
In the never-ending search for an affordable meal, check out the lunch specials over at Tai Tai Japanese. The restaurant is open for lunch and dinner, and has lots of lunch combos, like a 10-piece sashimi combo that comes with soup and salad for only $21! Plus, the owner flies in rotating Japanese desserts so you never know what new sweet treat might be in the mix.

🍸 Boozy Matcha Moment
For anyone wanting to sip on a highly Instagrammable matcha past normal coffee shop hours, look no further than the “Green Galaxy” drink served up at Bigsby’s Folly. This drink features gin, elderflower, matcha, lemon, lavender, and “fee foam.” This green elixir is the drink that everyone at the table is stealing a sip from!
