Lots of great places to have photo shoots as the stone circle was the most popular area. Lots of stone seating that weren't really that uncomfortable since they were made to hold and audience. Lots of great views of the Chippewa River with water based activities available to all from boating to fishing. Great restaurants within walking distance and lots of scenic views from many of their bridges (one of which lights up every night which gives it a real downtown vibe). Free parking spots all around so there's not an issue with that on the weekends but weekdays it's 2hr parking from 6am-6pm. All in all, a great spot in downtown Eau Claire that has something for people of all ages!

When I was visiting my daughter in Chippewa Falls last week she told me she had found the greatest…read moresalsa ever. Being from Colorado she has really been missing the Mexican food she grew up on, so for her to be this excited about this salsa I had to try it. We went to all the stores that was suppose to carry this one salsa she liked so much but they didn't have it so we went to the "Kitchen" in Banbury. There we met the staff ( more than charming and funny) They were very helpful and thankfully had the " Ghoulicious". We bought 3 jars for my trip home and my daughter's friend bought 3 jars. Extremely good and great in meatloaf or stuffed bell peppers. Gave some to my neighbor who is Hispanic and she loved it and wants more. So far everybody here in Colo. that I have shared my jars with want more so I guess I'll be ordering more .

Absolutely the best farmers market that I've ever been to. We are from Madison and were vacationing…read morein Chippewa Falls. We happened on this farmers market by chance. Happy dance. The produce was so fresh, attractively displayed and priced so right that I had to stop our impulse buying. This blows away farmers market in or around Madison WI. So much so that I am making it a destination during next year's vacation and bringing an extra cooler to take home fresh veggies to preserve.

"Ma Na Ma Nah...do doo de doo doo--Menomonie!" (The Muppet Show)…read more Statler: "Is she singing? I thought she was choking!" Waldorf: "At her age, it's hard to tell the difference! DOHOHOHO!" If you just sang that ditty in your head like the Muppets, you're already in the right mood for a visit to the Menomonie Food Co-op Market. This market is as effortlessly fun and cool as Janice from Electric Mayhem, but with less trout pout and more lentil dip. "Fer sure!" Here are the highlights that you really don't want to miss! THE BREAD SITUATION: The artisanal rosemary sourdough loaf from One Love Bread is the stuff boy bands are made of. This bread is basically what happens if you roll Harry Styles in flour and water. It really deserves its own Manchester disco-dancing fan club, but for now I'll just sing its praises. DAIRY AND DAIRY ALTERNATIVES: I was totally NSYNC with this section. I'm not even sure what plants half of them came from, but they looked intriguing. Had I brought a cooler, my fridge would have undergone quite the calcium glow up! SODA ALTERNATIVES: This was the real Big Time Rush! We studied the sodas for a solid ten minutes like raccoons who'd discovered a vending machine. There are flavors and brands here I've never seen in the wild...some with names I can't pronounce (but absolutely bought)! The store was very clean and organized, and if the employees had been any friendlier, they'd have been covered in yellow feathers. In summary: great bread, fantastic selection, kind humans, and a soda aisle that deserves its own documentary. 5/5, will return. Probably for more bread. Definitely for more weird soda. Statler: "That was a long review!" Waldorf: "I wanted it to end five minutes ago! DOHOHOHO!" Ma Na Ma Nah.

Initially a medicine back in the days of Ancient Greeks, it's since come to be a food and condiment. If you like cocktail sauce, then you like horseradish. Especially when you're dipping shrimp and oysters into it. Yeah, this stuff mixed half and half with ketchup is perfect! Bookbinder's ingredients include distilled vinegar, water, corn starch, soybean oil, salt, artificial flavor, sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate, calcium disodium-EDTA and sodium bisulfate. I'm not usually a fan of too many things with that many syllables but it's what we got by Instacart https://www.yelp.com/biz/instacart-san-francisco-48?hrid=XSJygpbvhDdTgxIHwumuVg one day. It's tasty, it's a squeeze bottle and it works. Bookbinder's also makes mustard, tartar sauce, wasabi and a spicy sriracha sauce that I'll be trying soon! [Review 13390 overall, 708 of 2020.]
