Like it or not, spring is upon us. The equinox has come and gone, and now, lurking in wait behind the next pleasant Friday afternoon is a new horror: dining al fresca. Step cautiously through the sliding cage-like door at 411 Troutman St because Lot 45 is about to reintroduce you to an old friend in a big way.
Revelers at Lot 45’s party last Friday.
Well, okay, Lot 45 doesn’t have food just yet. But they are selling beer and liquor, which I’m told one can safely subsist on for up to twelve hours. And in the coming weeks, you’ll find a food truck parked on their patio. The menu is still up in the air, but it promises to be interesting and extremely affordable (~4 – 5$ for snack-y items). In the meantime, drink al fresca in the patio area and watch Troutman St blossom.
