- Washington Avenue - Once home to industrial warehouses, Washington Avenue has become a dividing line for the city and is home to some of our favorite restaurants in the city. We’ll visit a legendary Vietnamese bakery and a longstanding Mexican restaurant with some of the best tacos in the city.
- Italian Market - One of the longest continually operating outdoor markets in the United States, where locals still do their shopping and lots of restaurants source ingredient. You’ll hear stories of the businesses in this area, and visit a fourth generation Italian bakery, a new-school Jewish appetizing store, and have a little time to shop in the market. We’ll end with a glass of wine from a limited-edition series of wine made support from one of the Italian Market’s oldest businesses.
