St. Paul Tourists
Aug. 20th, 2013 02:32 pmMason and I have been playing tourist in our hometown. With what remains of the summer, I'm hoping to take him to a lot of the free/cheap things to do. But, yesterday we decided to try out the food trucks that congregate around Mears Park in downtown St. Paul. There were a number of choices: Asian Invasion, Gogi Bros., Twisted Fork, and Tiki Tim's.
We checked out all our options, considered prices (we only had a little over $6 each to spend), and finally settled on Asian Invasion. Mason had the pork dumplings and I had the Vietnamese pulled pork sandwich:
Mason's big plan for this outing was to sit on a park bench, eat fun food, and read. So I brought along the book I've been re-reading (Sujata Massey's FLOATING GIRL) and we ate, read, and were harassed by aggressive birds.
Mears Park is beautiful. It's tiny--really no more than your average city block--but it has a man-made stream and waterfalls.
