Des Moines Update

Sad to report but our beloved Buzzard Billys was lost in the floods a couple years back. Too bad too - they had great cajun food!

48 hours in Des Moines: Where should I eat?

I like the ones others already posted (Fav's are definitely Centro and Sam & Gabes), but I have a few others to add as well - Latin King (good Italian); LUCCA (another Italian fav); Flemmings in West Des Moines (seared ahi tuna appetizer is to die for). Breakfast pastries are great at La Mie on 42nd. Fun atmosphere, fun food (tater tots, deviled eggs)at El Bait Shop -complete with a shag carpet. Great authentic German food and beer at Hessen Haus. I have to say, DSM has come along way in the past 10 years. Happy feasting!
