While we were exploring Ashtabula County, we had lunch from the Jefferson Diner in downtown Jefferson, Ohio. Jefferson is the Ashtabula County seat (bet you thought it was Ashtabula!). It is a small town and the biggest building in it is the county courthouse. Fortunately, the Jefferson Diner sits across from the courthouse, so it …
From Places to Eat
Porch: Authentic Nashville Hot Chicken
Before everything closed down, Tom and I had a chance to try The Porch: authentic Nashville hot chicken. This may be my last restaurant review for a while, because I don’t think it is fair to judge a place based on its takeout alone. Also, I don’t like to order takeout from a restaurant that …
Mallery Street Cafe
As the final post about Kris Moye’s visit, I want to write about the Mallery Street Cafe where we ate for lunch on the last day. Of course, we had to pick a new place that Tom and I had never been. After we spent a couple of hours going in and out of the …
Half Shell at the Pier, St. Simons Island
Yesterday I mentioned all the fun things we did while Kris Moye was visiting last week. On Wednesday, after a delicious lunch at Tortuga Jack’s, we weren’t hungry for supper at 6 p.m. Instead we had dessert as our supper. Kris has a friend that visits the island regularly and she gave Kris a list …
Zuzus: Best Burgers on St Simons Island
Last week Tom and I ate at Zuzus in Pier Village. I don’t know what Zuzus means or stands for, but this little hole-in-the wall restaurant on St. Simons Island has the best burgers! We used to think Certified Burgers had the best, but found out they put way too much salt in their meat. …
Frostys Griddle and Shake on St. Simon’s Island
Tom and I recently ate, for the first time, at Frostys Griddle and Shake. The first two years Tom and I were on St. Simon’s, we enjoyed eating periodically at Dairy Queen. It was centrally located close to the pier, so we would park, walk there for some ice cream, and then walk around the …
Georges Linworth Diner in Worthington, Ohio
The last place that John and Jackie took us to eat while we were in Ohio was Georges Linworth Diner in Worthington. Diners are always fun and this place is a new favorite for John and Jackie. We went there to eat in between Saturday morning choir practice and the 12:50 showing of “Knives Out,” …
Lunches and Suppers with Friends
While we were in Ohio, we had lots of lunches and suppers with friends. We got to touch base with plenty of the folks that I love, even if I didn’t always remember to take a picture. Of course, I would always love to spend more time, but my diet probably can’t afford many more …
Bru Burger near Polaris, Columbus
In contrast to Beer Barrel Pizza and Grill, Bru Burger is a place that I would eat over and over again. It is another new restaurant, located close to Polaris on the north side of Columbus. Bru Burger Bar started in 2011 and now has ten locations across three states. The menu isn’t large, compared …
Beer Barrel Pizza and Grill in Dublin, Ohio
One of the new places we ate with John and Jackie while we were in Columbus was the Beer Barrel Pizza and Grill in Dublin. We met them there for lunch on a Saturday and the place was packed, with the Ohio State Football game playing on all the screens. Beer Barrel Pizza and Grill …
