No matter what time of year it is, a tall, frosty milkshake is one of the most perfect desserts out there. While you could opt for a drive-thru shake, why not treat yourself? Stop by this Omaha restaurant for a milkshake like no other.
The Hunger Block is a relatively new Latin American restaurant in Omaha.
And because we know you're curious, here's how the restaurant's owners explain the unusual name: "Many Latin American cities have a particular street/block where locals go to grab a quick bite for lunch, snack, dinner or after hours. We call it "La Calle El Hambre" which translates to 'The Hunger Street/Block.'"
The place is known for its authentic Latin American cuisine that includes classic dishes as well as street food-type treats.
They look plenty impressive in pictures, but just wait until one of these bad boys makes its way to your table. You won't be able to stop the look of astonishment that will creep onto your face.
The Hunger Block is located at 11036 Elm St, Omaha, NE. It’s open Monday-Thursday 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., Friday-Saturday 11 a.m. to 10 p.m., and Sunday 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Check out the restaurant’s website or Facebook page for more information, including the mouthwatering menu.
