Re: *lilswimmer*
Tomorrow's looking to be around 58 and windy, Saturday should be 60 and sunny, but I guess if you're leaving in the morning, that won't matter.
Are you just here for fun?
What kind of food do you guys like? That'll give me a good idea of what places to recommend.
If you'll be at the Zoo, I'll recommend places in the Old Market and in the downtown area so you don't have to go far. Are you staying downtown?
Ok, for casual American food downtown there is Upstream and Twisted Fork. There's also Old Chicago and Rock Bottom Brewery but those are larger chains, so you've probably been to those before.
In midtown, there is Crave, which is part of a small chain, but it has a big variety of foods (and awesome sweet potato fries!)
For a quick lunch or breakfast, Wheatfields Express is good. They have awesome cookies, cinnamon rolls, desserts and a good lunch menu.
If you like Cajun food at all, you might want to try Jazz. They have the most addictive butter spread for their breads and lots of good chicken and pasta dishes.
And definitely go to Ted and Wally's (also downtown) for the BEST ice cream in Omaha.
You'll probably be exhausted from the zoo (the Sky-fari there is new and pretty cool, but being afraid of heights, it scared the crap out of me last time I went on it) but I'd wander the Old Market if you get a chance, lots of funky little shops, candy stores, etc to go through. Also, taking a walk over the Pedestrian Bridge (north downtown area) is pretty cool, especially at night if it's not too cold. (One of my favorite routes to go running includes the bridge - it has an incline and it's almost a mile long.) It's a cute photo op spot.
