Northside Sunday.

This afternoon, we walked down to Bridges Nepali Cuisine on Hamilton Avenue. We’ve been wanting to try Bridges for a while but we just never got around to it…

We ordered a rice bowl with half chicken tikka marsala and half veggie mix and a veggie samsoa to share…

And it was all delicious! Everything had such incredible flavors. And when our momos arrived, we realized that we had just ordered way too much food. The momos were amazing little pockets of awesome deliciousness…

After stuffing ourselves full of delicious Bridges, we walked down to Higher Gravity to have a beer and watch a little bit of the Reds game…

It was a pretty delicious and relaxing Sunday. But the Reds lost to the Cubs 6-3.
😀🌉🍺⚾️❤️

A Chicken Tender BLT?!

After a couple of beers at Grainworks Brewing Company, we stopped for some lunch at Rusty Bucket in Liberty Center…

We’ve been to the Rusty Bucket at Rookwood Commons in Hyde Park. But we’ve never been to this one before. In fact, I didn’t realize that there were multiple Rusty Buckets…

Usually, my go-to at Rusty Bucket is their patty melt. But I couldn’t find it on the menu. So I tried this chicken tender BLT instead and it was outstanding…

I think I’ve actually had this sammich before but this time, it was just amazing. The breading on the chicken was like a beer battering. It was just incredible. I think I have a new favorite sammich. 😀🐔🥓🥬🍅🥪❤️

Grainworks Brewing Company.

This afternoon we drove all the way out to the suburbs of West Chester to check out Grainworks Brewing Company. It’s kind of tucked away in a little industrial park right by Voice of America Park…

Genifer had Grainworks My Blue Heaven blueberry fruited beer and I had the Black & Blue, which is their oatmeal stout mixed with the My Blue Heaven…

Both beers were really good…

There is so much really good beer in Cincinnati. And Grainworks is no exception. It’s another awesome Cincinnati brewery. 🙁⚙️🍺❤️

UPDATE: When I was looking for Grainworks beers in Untappd, I noticed that they have a Peanut Butter Milk Stout on tap. So we might need to make another trip out to West Chester very soon.

Pause for paws.

Oscar loves his Nylabones and he has a bunch of them to choose from…

He is a regular little Nylabone thug ‘n harmony. 😀🐾🦴❤️

Happy birthday, Higher Gravity!

It was Higher Gravity‘s second anniversary party weekend! So on the way home from work, we stopped in to wish them a happy birthday…

While we were hanging out at HG, we had some spicy cheese balls from Chameleon…

Happy birthday, Higher Gravity! We’re very happy you’re in Northside! 😀🍻🎂❤️

Locoba by Platform.

We took a detour on the way to work this morning to swing by Locoba by Platform on Main Street in OtR to try their coffee. We’ve been to Locoba before for Platform’s beers. But we’ve never tried their coffee…

My caramel latte was so good…

And that makes it even more of a bummer that their coffees only come in one size. Not big enough. Also, another bummer is that they only serve breakfast sammiches on the weekends. So yeah. Bummer. 😀☕️❤️

It must be Thursday.

After work this evening, we stopped at Queen City Radio for a Whip Classic burger, a cheese coney, and some fries. We think QCR has some of the best fries around…
