If you are looking for unique, high end, delicious, and creative food, go to iNDO. My best explanation of this restaurant is a fusion of Thai flavor with Japanese technique. It's incredible. Make a reservation to ensure you can get in.

This park is spectacular in the spring, but is worth your while any time of year. We often picnic, meet friends, go to the farmer's market, or go to Food Truck Friday here.
