Swoon List: Cannon Ball Brewing, Sugarfire Smokehouse, And More

Erin Kem’s wholesome-meets-hearty white bean falafel at Cannon Ball Brewing (1702 Bellefontaine St., 317-426-5978) on a bright Greek-inspired salad with warm pita—perfect now that the Kennedy-King brewery has its windows open for sunny spring days!

The more-than-generous, slaw-topped pulled pork sandwich at recently opened St. Louis barbecue transplant Sugarfire Smokehouse (24 W. Washington St., 317-493-1293), paired with an unexpected side of rich and decadent creamed spinach.

A textbook grilled pork banh mi at Pho Tasty (6044 E. 82nd St., 317-436-7071) with sweet, lightly charred pork and a cool kick of jalapenos and cilantro on perfectly crunchy French bread that will have you happily brushing the crumbs from your lap before you head back to work.

A delightfully tasty and addictively spicy trio of tacos (two al pastor, one chorizo) topped in the traditional style of diced onions and cilantro, and dressed with a squeeze of fresh lime juice and salsa verde from Gil Tacos Estilo D.F. (1665 S. Lynhurst Drive, 317-992-9046).
