Central Food
When I think of Central Food , I think of delicious , fresh-baked bread and a wonderful view . If it is a nice , sunny day in Spokane , Central Food is where you should be eating lunch . Nestled right along the Centennial Trail , at Central Food you can count on quality food , quick service , and smiles all-around . The best day to go to Central Food is Friday because that is when they sell their “ Roasted Garlic Rosemary Bread !” You can also grab a loaf of their “ Country Bread ” for five dollars any day of the week .
They have four different menus : Breakfast , Brunch , Lunch , and Dinner . Brunch is only available on the weekends .
When I go for lunch , I usually order a hearty sandwich like their “ Smoked Brisket .” If you ’ re a fan of spice , you ’ ll want to order the “ Korean Pork Sandwich .” The “ PNW Lentil Bowl ” is great if you are looking for a lighter lunch . It is a spinach salad mixed with a generous number of golden beets , lentils , radish , cucumber , red onion , and sprinkled with a light red wine vinaigrette . This was so much better than a boring lunch salad . Don ’ t worry vegetarians , they didn ’ t forget about you . The “ Chickpea Burger ” is a hearty portion served with your favorite side .
Hello Sugar
Hello Sugar opened in mid-2018 and they have been making waves around Spokane since day one . This is THE spot to satisfy that sweet tooth and it is donut-lovers galore . These guys make the most beautiful mini-donuts I have ever seen . You have to see them to believe it ! Covered in glitter and sparkles , they ’ re truly works of art !
They have all different flavors , so there ’ s sure to be something for everyone . They also can do bulk boxes , which are great for family or work events . Hello Sugar is a must-try when you ’ re in Kendall Yards . They take any mini-donut you ’ ve ever had and go above and beyond ! Bonus : they make a large batch of gluten-free donuts every morning , so get there early to try one of those before they run out .
