12 & 13 June Photos
Jun. 22nd, 2014 10:04 pmOkay, I finally feel like I've caught my breath enough to get back to photo posting. Thankfully, I do seem to have managed to attend a major convention without getting Con-Crud. Yay!
On Thursday (12 June), I wandered over to North Market for the first time this year. I love that place... it's like a miniature version of Pike Place Market and it's just a few blocks from the convention and our hotel. I ended up getting some greek food for dinner, as I recall, but got really excited when I remembered the cheese shop, because in the past they've had a nice variety of goat cheeses. ( And, even better, they have something I've never found anywhere else... goat cheese curd! )
On Friday the 13th, a group of us ventured out to German Village... and had lunch at Schmidt's Sausage Haus. It was funny, because I was looking over the menu and some of the signs and it actually took a bit to realize that it said "Since 1886" and not "1986." I'm really not used to being in an area where things could have conceivably been around since before the 20th century! Two photos for this one, because I can't resist sharing a picture of the food. ( My first time trying sauerbraten. )
( And then a photo out in front of the restaurant, with the lovely brick roads that ran all through that neighborhood. )
