Happy Hour and Dessert in Capitol Hill

  Happy Hour Street Tacos with Carne Asada and a Miami Vice from Poquitos.  Poquitos is located in Capitol Hill and they're serving up authentic Mexican cuisine and cocktails.

A Visit to Sugar Plum

Feeling like dessert but want it vegan? You can find frozen treats, cookies, at cake at Sugar Plum in Capital Hill. The store is sweet and whimsical and full of light.

I went with a hard scoop of the Chocolate Almond in a sugar cone. We also tried a Blueberry Yogurt Popsicle and a Chocolate Chip Cookie. The desserts were all pretty light and not very rich tasting. If you like to satisfy your sweet tooth but without dairy or nuts, then this spot will fit the bill.
