Des Moines Restaurants long ago, downtown was all but a ghost town on Sundays, but these days, cars are parked all up and down Locust Street in the western Gateway area. From families wandering the Pappajohn Sculpture Garden, to theater-goers pouring into a matinee at the Temple for the Performing Arts, to others catching a cuppa at Starbucks, the place is abuzz with weekend brunch/lunch menu is also drawing its fair share of the crowds.
