Saturdate with Grandma – Zoo Edition
Posted on June 27, 2017 by Ching under Family, Food and Drink.
Brian and I took grandma out for an early birthday treat a couple of weeks ago. We went on a zoo date but, before that, we stopped for lunch at Aero Plains Brewing where we knew that LumpiaPalooza would be.
Here’s a picture of Brian chatting with the owner, Cynthia Wilson. She is a relative of Matt, who was our server at 49th State Brewing Company in Anchorage.
We couldn’t decide what to get so we ordered the “Make Me One With Everything” – TWICE! This package consists of five savory lumpia flavors (original with spicy sweet and sour sauce, pulled pork with BBQ sauce, Caribbean veggie with mango salsa, mac and cheese and bacon with BBQ sauce, and mozzarella stick with marinara sauce) and three dessert lumpias (lemon blueberry, chocolate chip cookie dough, and Nutella banana).
Here’s the full menu.
Areo Plains is Brian’s favorite brewery in town so he took advantage of the opportunity to enjoy a glass while we waited for our food.
I also took a picture of Brian and grandma while we were waiting.
And, an obligatory group selfie.
Here are some pictures of our amazing lumpias.
This was grandma’s very first food truck experience so, of course, we had to take a picture with the owner before we left.
Then it was off to the zoo for the rest of grandma’s pre-birthday treat.
Here are some of my favorite pics from our zoo trip that day.
We were going to go on the boat ride but they shut it down early because of the weather. It was rainy the day. It had been raining lightly on and off but then it started to really pour. We didn’t get our boat ride but we got to see a lot of stuff and it was a fun day overall.
Brian and I had a great time and hope that grandma did as well.
