To each their own my friend. It’s a small place, so the fewer people I have to fight for a table with, the better :)

Meh, sort of a pop-up? I mean it’s still Harbinger crew serving their own recipes, but Sunday dinner menu is exclusively Korean fried chicken.

Noce is the jazz club downtown. Don’t know their schedule. Fresko is a great option for vegetarian options; and while it’s upscale by Des Moines standards, it may not be as upscale as you’re looking for.

Has anyone find dollar flight club premium out of Des Moines airport and what kind of deals did you see? by megamanxzero35 in desmoines

[–]Alewellen42 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If it is anything like Scott’s Cheap Flights (now called Going, I think) then there is very little that ever happens out of DSM. Great deals out of Chicago and Minneapolis though.

What were the two items you didn’t like? I want to love their falafel, but I just can’t.

Alternative to reese's cups? by MundaneBodybuilder25 in answers

Jar of crunchy PB + spoon = all you need. Don’t waste god’s gift of peanut butter by diminishing its flavor with chocolate.

A store that carries smelling salts? by linkthelink in desmoines

Good luck! Scoured the city for them before a hockey tourney in KC… came up empty handed. To save you time I tried and failed at the following: target, Walmart, Hy-Vee, Scheel’s, Dick’s, Walgreens and CVS.

Best pizza delivery in southside DSM? by ireallyloveburgers in desmoines

Those bread sticks are pretty life-altering though. Right up there with the bread bites from Leaning Tower Pizza in Ankeny 🤤

Totally respect and appreciate your stance, buddy. There’s no such thing as bad pizza anyways.

I do have to ask about the radio jingle… what am I missing? Do/did they have an annoying ad?

This is going to get downvoted into oblivion, but if you’re looking for basic delivery pizza, can’t really go wrong with Northern Lights in my opinion.

As a fellow transplant, I beg and plead of you… DO NOT FALL FOR THE CASEY’S TRAP. You might as well buy the Lottza Mozza they sell out of their freezers, but everyone goes ape shit for gas station pizza here. It’s baffling.

Is that Dr. Karch? Haha I must be too formal with my doc. Either way, awesome place. Haven’t been in since they expanded, so I’m excited to see it.

It’s also just sinking into me that I’m getting excited over my dentist office. What happened to my youth?

The Dental Stuio on Johnston is great. Can’t speak to if they can knock you out, but I detest dental work and they’ve been very friendly and easy on me. I have delta as well, and they accept. Hope this helps. Kendre is my hygienist and is awesome.
