I had considered MUNCH as my own hidden gem, as it was just a five minutes walk from my house and, from afar, it was hard to tell that a BBQ joint was hidden away in this seemingly inconspicuous little building. Apartment complexes dominated the landscape, and few would think that such a restaurant would be nestled away amongst them. But I knew, and, funds permitting, enjoyed taking a beer and sitting down on their outdoor patio with a pulled pork burger and some dirty fries.
I only recently discovered their change of location, now hosting their venue in the city center. I was saddened that now MUNCH wouldn't be all mine to sing praises about, but, knowing just how hard they work, and how pleasant the staff has been, I am truly jovial that this eatery has gotten a spot that they deserve and, hopefully, will receive much more traffic than they could ever get in the Purvciems district. One of the things I stand for it is the promotion of well-deserved culinary talent, and MUNCH BBQ certainly earns my seal of approval for fantastic food.

And all of this thanks to Anna Vermane, who donated the park to the city for recreational use back in 1817 and whose monument you'll be able to find in the park's gardens
