Freshly baked delights from Perenn Bakery
THINGS TO DO
Saturday in the City There are many reasons why we love calling Reno’s Old Southwest home, but our neighborhood’s proximity to downtown Reno and Midtown is certainly at the top of the list of benefits. A perfect Saturday exploring our city starts with enjoying morning coffee and a homemade baked good at Perenn Bakery (20 Saint Lawrence Avenue). This bakery has quickly become a local favorite for pastries, fresh breads, and artisanal food items that rival any bakery item enjoyed in a Paris patisserie.
Flavorful Korean fusion dish from Arario Midtown
After breakfast, stroll through the cute shops in Midtown and then go on a self-guided tour of over 80 murals painted by local and national artists (artspotreno.org). Once you have worked up a midday appetite, grab lunch at Arario (777 S. Center Street) and get ready to be immersed in Korean fusion dishes that
are sure to please even the most discerning palates. While you are in Midtown, keep your eyes open for Emmy’s Flower Truck (@emmysflowertruck). “Daisy” is a restored 1965 Volkswagen Transporter truck filled with fresh flowers for you to create beautiful bouquets wrapped in burlap.
