Located west of Flying Cloud Airport; an old farmstead turned into flower and farmer's market. The farmer's market is only open in the summer and fall but it's got a great selection of meat, veggies and other treats. Fall is probably the best time to go. In October they have a pumpkin patch, corn maze, bounce house and awesome Halloween decor'.

Such good Indian food. The "dine in" part of the restaurant isn't anything fancy...but you could always take out if you didn't want to eat inside. Deliciousness.

This place is tricky to find so I would use a car service to get you to your destination...it's tucked behind the stores on the street front. Get there early or in the middle of the week so you can actually have somewhere to sit. It's often standing room only on the weekends.
