We went out to get Blizzards from Dairy Queen in Northern Kentucky before tonight’s FC Cincinnati away match at Orlando City B…

#GCRWeek16: Pompilio’s.
Greater Cincinnati Restaurant Week (#GCRWeek) started today. Restaurant week consists of restaurants offering specially selected 3-course dinner menus with a price point of $35 for one or two guests. We found ourselves across the river over in Newport this evening, and decided to kick-off our Restaurant Week with some amazing Italian cuisine at Pompolio’s…
We sat in Colonel Pomp’s Tavern so we could watch some of the Reds game…
ps. They lost. 
Apparently, I was sitting in the Commish’s Chair…
We wondered if Tom Selleck was going walk into the bar, stop, look at us and give us one of his classic disapproving sighs. We each started with a house salad…
The house Italian dressing was incredible. Genifer ordered the cheese tortellini. And I had the chicken parmigiano…
Really enormous portions…
Chicken parm you taste so good…
Incredibly delicious stuff. The leftovers were just as delicious for lunch on Tuesday…
And finally, we shared this gigantic tiramisu for dessert…
Delicious stuff. And all for just $35! It was a great start to our Greater Cincinnati Restaurant Week! 🙂

Nashville Hot.
This afternoon we drove out to Crescent Springs, Kentucky to pay a visit to Nashville Hot. They serve up authentic Nashville-style hot chicken with a custom spice blend and southern-inspired sides. To be honest with you, I’ve never heard of Nashville-style hot chicken until that colonel started trying to shove his KFC Nashville Hot chicken down my throat. Apparently, Nashville Hot opened back at the beginning of February. But I didn’t hear about them until they recently hosted a tap takeover with Braxton Brewing Company. Let’s check it out…
Genifer ordered a house salad and added two boneless chicken tenders. And I ordered the Hot Chicken Sandwich on Texas Toast with a side of baked mac ‘n cheese. Throw in a couple of Braxton Storms, and there’s our lunch…
I had mine with the Southern Heat and Genifer had the Midwest Medium heat. The Southern Heat definitely lived up to its name, but next time I’m going all in on the Nashville Hot. There really wasn’t a good way to eat this sammich. But it was such delicious stuff!
We can’t wait to come back to eat more amazing chicken at Nashville Hot. 🙂

Seen and noted.
It’s almost that time of year again…
The best weekend in all of sports. Those things must take a lot of planning. But I’m really kinda surprised they didn’t make it all out of Kentucky blue, what with being in Northern Kentucky and all. 🙂

Pause for paws.
Oscar got his haircut today! Here’s a couple before photos of him all fuzzy & scruffy…
He gets his hair cut over at Wags-n-Whiskers across the river in Newport, Kentucky…
And here’s super handsome, all-clean and dapper Oscar…
He’s so handsome! And pretty hilarious with all his favorite toys…

Braxton Brewing Co.
After Genifer got home from work, we ventured over across the river to Covington…
To finally check out Braxton Brewing Company…
I was tinkering with the idea of coming over yesterday to check it out. Braxton was having a Block Party. But I thought it would be way more fun to wait and check out Braxton for the first time with Genifer.
We got a taster flight with Storm Golden Cream Ale, Dead Blow Tropical Stout, Dead Blow brewed with Starter Coffee and Level Saison…
The Dead Blow with Starter Coffee was out of this world. Was it beer? Was it coffee? There’s no need to decide. It was just pure amazing.
After the taster, I got a Storm and Genifer got a Dead Blow on nitro…
We followed that up with two of the Dead Blows brewed with Starter Coffee. Outstanding.
Google Maps has an awesome 360º interactive view of the interior of the Braxton taproom…
We hung out and watched the Pats eek out the one-point win over the Giants.
Great beers. Awesome place. We’ll definitely be back! 🙂
