What To Expect

Pambiche

Our first stop is a colorful Cuban restaurant. The food is fun and the stories are real. The other places will be discovered as we walk through the hood.

Pod 28

Visit a food cart, which is tucked away in the Kerns hood. It’s a real hidden gem and depending on the day, we’ll be enjoying either Korean fried chicken, or savory crepes and lavender lemonade. There is even a Beer Bus (yes, a bus with beer on draft coming out the side) on the premises.
