Happy Cinco de Mayo!

We had our inspection this evening for the house we’re looking to buy in Northside. It went pretty well. Afterwards, we went over to Urban Artifact in Northside for a rather untraditional Cinco de Mayo beer….

We had a couple of their Key Punch key lime gose sours. They were pretty amazing…

When we got home, we thought about going over to nada for their Cinco de nada celebration. But it started to sprinkle. So we just called it a night. We had been to nada’s Cinco de nada celebration in 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011 and 2010. So we felt pretty okay missing this year’s festivities. Taken with Instagram. 🙂

Tickle Pickle.

We found ourselves over in Northside this evening looking at some houses. So afterwards, we stopped in to check out Tickle Pickle…

Tickle Pickle specializes in organic grass fed burgers, organic slaw, taters and sides with organic milkshakes and they’re all named after rock bands…

We ordered two Buns ‘n Roses with smashed potatoes and mac ‘n cheese…

And that’s one pretty delicious burger!

Great place! And on our way out, we picked up a couple of milkshakes on the way out.

Oreo Speedwagon and a Flan Halen. Awesome milkshakes!

Delicious stuff! We’ll definitely be stopping in to Tickle Pickle again! Northside is a fun place. 🙂

Brunch at The Littlefield.

We’ve been trying to make more of an effort to get over to Northside for what we’ve been calling Northside Sundays. Check out the neighborhood and see what all it has to offer. Today, we stopped in to have brunch at The Littlefield…

We started with a couple of The Littlefield’s incredible house-made Bloody Mary’s…

And we shared the sausage swiss spinach frittata…

And it was spectacular…

It was also huge. I couldn’t imagine trying take that giant frittata all by myself. We added a side of toast and raspberry jam…

Brunch at The Littlefield was pretty terrific. We’ll add it to the list of places that we need to try for dinner. 🙂

After brunch, we walked through a few open houses in Northside. We absolutely loved this house. It was perfect and everything we’re looking for right now…

I hope we can find something just like this one in a few months. 😀

Urban Artifact.

After driving around Northside for a little bit and looking at some houses, we stopped in to check out Urban Artifact. Urban Artifact is a craft brewery with a taproom, full bar and live music venue. The taproom is built in the lower level of the historic St. Patrick’s church on Blue Rock Road in Northside. The brewery is located in the old church gymnasium building just behind the church. Only the taproom was open when we stopped in to check the place out this Sunday afternoon…

Our favorites were the Finn, Tiramisu Cauldron, Kicksled but our very most favorite was Abacus, a Chocolate Raspberry Gose. We had tried it before at Nation with my parents. We played some Battleship…

When Genifer sunk my little ship, it was all over…

And we played some Connect Four…

Connect Four is a pretty silly game. It’s like the tic-tac-toe of board games. The taproom was pretty empty…

Probably because of the snow storm that was starting to pick-up. But it was a really fun place. A little on the chilly side. Also probably because of the snow storm. But it was a great place with some incredible beers. We can’t wait to come back and check out the rest of Urban Artifact:)

Northside Yacht Club.

We ventured up into Northside to check out Northside Yacht Club for for the first time and maybe get our Valentine’s Day brunch on…

We shared a Valentine’s Day brunch of bacon pancakes topped with bacon served with bourbon infused Ohio maple syrup and home fries. The pancakes were delicious and that syrup was out of this world…

NSYC is a pretty awesome place, and everyone there was so nice and friendly. We really can’t wait to go back to try one of their Sunday Brunch Bloody Marys. They were topped with a pulled pork slider, chicken wing, bacon and a pickle and looked absolutely amazing. The drink that eats like a meal. 🙂
