Hartford - Getting Acquainted

After my morning bike ride in Portland CT,  Cris and I ventured into Hartford to check out the Latin Festival. It was a bit of a disappointment but we did spend sometime walking around downtown to get a little more familiar with the city. Later we visited the Parkville Marketplace which was awesome!

Latin Festival

Although the festival was on beautiful grounds, the vendors were few and the latin food choices limited. Even though we heard great pre-recorded salsa music when entering, a terrible latin rock band took the stage and sounded horrendous. The best thing was the kids' Mariachi band - they were so cute1

Cute!

Our Walk...

Parkville Market

After Cris insisted on having lunch at the Brazilian restaurant in the Parkville section of Hartford, I decided to check out the Parkville Market. We had heard a lot about the place and it didn't disappoint!

The Parkville Market was the first official "food hall" in Connecticut. Formerly the Bishop Ladder Co., a 20,000-square-foot warehouse has been transformed into an international food market. The place was packed!
