Hi! I'm an Omaha nestie popping over to see if you girls can help me out...
A couple girlfriends and I are meeting up in Des Moines to celebrate 3 of the 4 of us turning 30 this January. We'll be there Sat. Jan. 21st. It sounds like we'll be staying downtown somewhere. None of us are really familiar with Des Moines though - so we're not quite sure what to plan. We'll get in Saturday morning some time and one of the girls threw out going to get mani/pedis, then maybe going to a performance at the Civic Center or just go out to eat and hit up a bar or something afterwards.
So - any suggestions of either a mani/pedi place, things to do, or somewhere good to eat/drink in the downtown area?
Thanks for the help!
Re: Girls weekend in Des Moines
Just wanted to chime in and add Americana to your list of possible restaurants. It's got a website you can google but is a cool after work bar with good food.
A civic center performance would be cool. I'm not sure what's playing then. There will also be tons of places with live bands playing. Do you have a certain type of music you guys like? I have a friend who is on the Central Iowa Music League and he lives downtown so I could ask him where the cool shows will be that weekend.
Thanks for all the feedback!!
And for the last poster - we're all huge fans of DMB - but other than that - any cover band type of music is usually game (70s to today) - whatever!!
