Cafe Fuzion, Des Moines
This is a great Asian fusion restaurant that we stopped at in Des Moines on our way to Golden, Colorado--ok, so we didn't get very far before we stopped, but it was a leisurely 12 hour drive.
The coconut fried rice wrapped in rice paper with lettuce and herbs was the absolute highlight of the meal--I had read about this place on Yelp, and they were mentioned in a review, so I ordered them (based on my faith in Yelp). Sublime. The flavor was phenomenal, with a balance of sweet and sour, mixed with floral herbs, but even better than that was the texture. The rice is crunchy and chewy, and the vegetables added a crisp texture. Then there is that slightly gummy phenomena of the rice paper wrap that topped the whole dish off. I really need to get a recipe for this.
