Tom and I spend lots of time in Williston, North Dakota. We go there at least once a week to do laundry and grocery shopping. Two local restaurants that we enjoy are Gramma Sharon and Pit 105 Barbeque. Of course, the restaurant we eat at most is Culver’s. Love their fresh, fast food and I …
From Places to Eat
Billings, Montana: Biggest City in the State
With a population of 110,000, Billings is the largest city in Montana. It is sometimes referred to as the Magic City because it grew so rapidly after its founding as a railroad town in 1882. I think every state has a city with that nickname, for many different reasons. Billings is the largest city for …
Powell Farmers Market and Farmer John
John and Jackie now have a booth at the Powell Farmers Market. Not the one on Saturday which is in downtown Powell, but the one on Sunday just off Sawmill Road. The Sunday market runs from 10 until 1, so Tom and I drove over there after church the first Sunday they were having it. …
Chicken Salad Chick Restaurant
Tom and I love chicken salad. Our previous favorite was at the now-defunct Andersons Grocery Store. Their chicken salad, with raisins and grapes and no nuts, is still my favorite. But we recently discovered a restaurant that is giving Andersons’ chicken salad a run for its money. Even better, it is currently in business so …
Dietsch Brothers Ice Cream and Wilson’s Sandwich Shop
When we went to Hancock County recently, we headed to Findlay for lunch. We had sandwiches from Wilson’s and ice cream from Dietsch Brothers. Dad has lots of wonderful memories about eating at both places. He and Mom used to go to the movie theater across the street for a date when they were visiting …
PIT BBQ Grille and Catering in Columbus, Ohio
Tom and I are always open to trying new places to eat, so when Jackie and John suggested PIT BBQ Grille we agreed. We have been going over to their house and working on Saturdays, so they pay us back by buying us lunch. Jackie says it is cheaper than hiring landscapers. Of course, we …
Silk Road Asian Cuisine in Lewis Center, Ohio
Tom and I recently tried Silk Road Asian Cuisine as a new restaurant. I haven’t been writing about places to eat much because we aren’t eating in any restaurants. When we get takeout, we tend to get food from places that are familiar. After all, half the fun of trying a new restaurant is eating …
Teriyaki Madness: Big Bowls of Awesome
As I mentioned last week, Tom and I have started ordering delivery. This last week we had delivery from Teriyaki Madness, a new restaurant at Polaris. Life has been so monotonous for so long that we are looking for anything to brighten it up and make it more interesting. Thus our new interest in ordering …
Fried Chicka Bang Food Delivery
This last week Tom and I tried two new things: Fried Chicka Bang, a new place to eat, and DoorDash, a food delivery service. John and Jackie have been doing food delivery a lot since the pandemic started, but Tom and I usually go and pick our food up. We are so close to so …
Big Walnut Grill in Sunbury, Ohio
When my parents came down to visit on my birthday, we had lunch at the Big Walnut Grill in Sunbury, Ohio. It was a beautiful, sunny, warm day. Totally unseasonable for November 10. Because it was so nice, we were able to eat on the large, open patio at the restaurant. It was lovely to …
