We went to Penticton for the first time since 2019 and it was nice to be back. It was a quick trip and we didn't get to do all our usual/favorite stuff but we did eat at 2 new to us places
The Badlands - an outdoor patio area behind Bad Tattoo with drinks from Bad Tattoo and food from Twisted Chopsticks food truck. It was UNBELIEVABLY HOT that night and by the time we had walked there we were all feeling pretty gross. We chose a table in the shade rather than one in the sun under the misters. There was no winning either way. We had a bit of a wait for our food but it was worth it. The menu was much more extensive than listed on the website above and we all enjoyed our food.
The Brother in Law wanted to eat at Bad Tattoo so we walked back down the next night but there was a huge line. We walked down the block to a new restaurant since we've been there last - Neighbourhood Brewing. After a short wait they had a table outside for us (in the shade - yay). We were surprised but happy to find the menu was all Tex-Mex style food. They bring out each item as it's ready, and I was disappointed in the size vs price of the first few plates that came out, but that seemed to change with other menu items. Everyone was pretty happy with their choices and I think The Mister had the best meal - the birria taco. So good!
