We had Talkeetna on our itinerary and saw Kahiltna Birchworks, where the Alaska Gold Caramels came from. Score! We arrived when they opened but had to wait about 1 hour until their tour starts. We wanted to do the tour because we were very curious about birch syrup and how it differs from maple syrup. We found it informative and enjoyed it. We bought a big bag of Alaska Gold Caramels, and some carry on friendly birch syrup. All a big hit back at home. I highly recommend the Alaska Gold Caramels!

CASH ONLY! All things being relevant this place is a surprise for its location. I had the daily…read morespecial which today (Monday) was the Bahn Mi pork sandwich. A surprise of soft French bread was still delicious but not your traditional crispy bread. I think I actually preferred the bread here as it held the flavors well and made eating it less of a mess. The mint was a nice touch along with the traditional cucumber and daikon but I was missing some of the heat of there jalapeños normally included. If this had been I. A larger market like Denver, LA, Chicago ,etc... I would have given it 4 stars. Governed are 100 miles north of Anchorage with not many choices I gave it five stars because who could have expected a Bahn mi worth eating for $17 in this location. Again price being relatively reasonable for this area options so it's pretty good for the price For dessert I had the Blueberry Rhubarb crisp. Tasty and $7 was fine for this location. Service was friendly but took about 12-15 minutes for the sandwich, the dessert they gave us right away. Remember to bring cash as that is the only option they offer for payment!

Was looking up must try foods in Talkeetna when I found Talkeetna Spinach Bread on Reddit. Located…read morein downtown Talkeetna, the truck was easy to find and I recommend checking out their hours and menu beforehand on Instagram. We got there around 11am and ordered one serving of spinach bread for the two of us. It was pretty busy and we waited about 10 minutes before our spinach bread was ready. Spinach bread was pretty good! It came out nice and hot and I liked that it was cheesy and soft. It pretty much tastes like what I expected, but was well executed. $9 is a little pricey for one square of spinach bread though, so I'd maybe get it again if I was craving a savory snack

A THICK footlong comes stacked with 2 cheeses, 2 meats, 3 veg, 2 condiments for just $15. They've gotta be losing money on these sandwiches - there's like 2 lbs of meat and cheese in there! This is not a Subway footlong - completely different species. Probably should have stuck with a 6" but I didn't know any better and now have another 1-2 meals left, not a bad problem to have. I really appreciated the veggie options to choose from as well as how much they piled on. Typically these subs are super bread-heavy but this bread is barely containing the fillings - like they're just there as a finger hold. Rock climbing a super sub here. Ladies were super nice too. They also have great daily lunch specials in it looks like (today was Mexican - choice of enchilada and 2 sides for like $11?) and a nacho bar. Probably the best grocery selections around. I found lots of Greek yogurt options for a little protein/dessert boost - picked one up before I saw how massive the sandwich was gonna be.
