Best $10 lunch in town. One of several great food trucks on the corner of 4th and Plum. Try their namesake, arepas, which are fried ground corn buns filled with an assortment of savory deliciousness. This Venezuelan vendor is among our favorite quick bite food choices when we're in town.

You could easily walk here. Just pass through the Capitol grounds on Columbia street. Overlooks Capitol Lake. Their food is good too; but order lightly, it's rich.

This neighborhood gem has a respectable variety of wines, beer and ice cream. You can also pick up essential condiments and milk here. Can't beat the 100 yard walk.

Well, it's really close. Go south on Capitol Way about 1 miles and fork left on Cleveland when you see the side of the store.

A traditional European butchery but they serve terrific sandwiches too. Soon to start seating a few tables for late evening dinners. Hmm, interesting.

Sightseeing

A lovely 4 block walk away, this sandstone building is among the country’s most impressive capitols. Go inside! Walk the switchback trail down to Capital Lake for a paved path that’s popular among walkers and runners. Don’t be surprised if you spot Gov. Inslee who uses this route for his early morning workout.

Arts & Culture

This previously run down neighborhood is now vital and culturally rich with UW, Dale Chihuly's Glass Museum, restaurants and a quick trolley ride to the theater district. It's worth the 40 min drive to Tacoma.

7 of us had such a fun evening there. Not claustrophobic at all. Bring humor, smarts, and constant cool communication for a bonding experience not soon forgotten. Oh, and we solved it with 2 secs to spare. Yeah, that’s us!
