A group of us got together with the sole purpose of conquering Midtown Global Market. Six people, tons of vendors featuring ethnic food, one brewery, one purpose = grab a variety of food and share it so everyone can enjoy trying a ton of different things. Mission accomplished. We all got food from different vendors and ended up with a wonderful smorgasbord. We had a cubano sandwich, bahn mi sandwich, "indurritos" from Hot Indian Foods, chinese noodles, samosa, schwarma, gyro, fried eggplant tacos, Surly cupcakes, and bread pudding. Unfortunately they had sold out of the camel burgers and roasted BBQ goat. I was really in the mood to try something totally different. The food we did get was amazing but I think my favorites were the indurritos and the eggplant tacos. This is by far the best way to experience the wonder that is Midtown Global Market - go with a group and share.
Even better than just the market is that there is a brewery inside - East Lake. We grabbed the food and sat inside the brewery so we could enjoy some drinks with our food. Thankfully the beer seemed to pair quite well with the ethnic food. I am not up to drinking yet so East Lake was a perfect choice as they serve two kinds of kombucha. The blood orange kombucha is to die for. I did have to sneak a sip of the almond milk stout beer though as I am a huge fan of almond milk. It was every bit as delightful as I hoped.
