It’s what’s for dinner.

Genifer made this Biscuit-Topped Chicken and Vegetable Bake for tonight for dinner…

And it was delicious! YUM! Genifer is a very good cook. 🙂

Happy National Spaghetti Day!

We celebrated National Spaghetti Day a couple of delicious ways from Skyline Chili, a five way for Genifer and a three way for me…

YUM! #ItsSkylineTime 🙂

Back to Americano.

We went back to Americano Burger Bar tonight to try some of their wings…

We got them with the house rub. And they were amazing!

And of course, we had to share an Americano burger…

Delicious. Definitely, one of the best burgers downtown. Hands down. On the way home, we said hello to the Carew Tower…

Taken with Instagram. 🙂

Back to Americano.

We went back to Americano Burger Bar tonight to celebrate Genifer turning in the last project of her Masters program. And with that she is officially done with school! HOORAY!

We shared another delicious Americano Burger with cajun fries…

With hand-battered onion rings…

Chef Christian sent us over an order of their chips and guacamole…

Delicious stuff! What a great way to celebrate! 🙂

Americano Burger Bar.

Tonight, we went over to check out the brand new Americano Burger Bar on Race Street in downtown Cincinnati. Americano is the latest concept from Chef Christian Pietoso who owns both Via Vite on Fountain Square and Forno Osteria in Hyde Park…

The ceiling is pretty spectacular…

An American flag made completely out of Budweiser and Miller Lite cans…

We shared the Americano Burger, not pink with a half-order of the cajun seasoned fries…

And the mini corn dogs, which turned out to be not so mini at all…

The burger was outstanding. Definitely one of the best burgers I’ve ever had downtown. The mini corn dogs we really delicious as well. And we wished we would have ordered a full order of the cajun seasoned fries. They were incredible. Delicious stuff!

After we finished our burger, it was time for some shuffleboard…

Americano is fantastic. The burgers are out of this world. There’s a great draft beer list. And how can you possibly go wrong with shuffleboard? I see this place quickly becoming one of our favorite go-tos.

BRU Burger Bar.

This evening we stopped in to check the brand new BRU Burger Bar at the corner of Walnut and Sixth Streets…

We started with a couple of the Ballast Point Pineapple Sculpins…

And we decided to share the BRU Burger…

Just look at all that burger deliciousness…

That was one delicious burger! And the fries were on point too. Perfect! And then Genifer tried their Peach Cosmo and I had a Founder’s Breakfast Stout…

BRU Burger Bar has some great, affordable burgers that large enough to share, and a great draft beer list. We’ll definitely be back very soon! And often! 🙂

Lunch at V’s Cafe on Seventh.

After checking the new FC Cincinnati store, we swung through the new V’s Cafe on Seventh to grab some lunch to go…

I ordered the Not Another Club… Turkey with house maple espresso bacon, white goat cheddar cheese finished with a red pepper aioli on a flaky croissant bun…

It was a pretty delicious sammich…

And their deviled eggs were pretty unbelievable…

I also some of the best broccoli cheddar soup I’ve ever had. Genifer ordered the Shamrock pastrami sammich but somehow ended up with the Dagwood instead. She said it was good but she really had her heart said on the Shamrock. We’ll definitely be back for lunch at V’s Cafe on Seventh. Hopefully then Genifer can finally get her pastrami.  🙂

Frisch’s Pumpkin Pie.

A treasured seasonal treat is back: Frisch’s pumpkin pie!

Frisch’s Big Boy has been baking pumpkin pie from the same closely guarded secret recipe and the best-available, highest-quality ingredients for over 50 years. Famous for the flaky, handmade pastry crust, creamy pumpkin filling and the perfect balance of special spices, Frisch’s pumpkin pie is a dessert worthy of even the most deserving individuals.

We were invited to tour the Frisch’s Big Boy bakery in Cincinnati to see how they bake their pies fresh, each day. But the scheduling didn’t work out. And unfortunately, we missed out on a great opportunity to see where all that deliciousness is made. With Thanksgiving right around the corner, I had to pick up a Frisch’s pumpkin pie just for the two of us so we wouldn’t have to share…

Look at that pumpkin pie gorgeousness…

And that is what pure pumpkin pie heaven looks like. It’s still easily some of the best pumpkin pie I’ve had ever had. Thanks to Frisch’s Big Boy and the Powers Agency for hooking us up with one of their delicious pumpkin pies. You should definitely pick up a couple, three pies for your Thanksgiving celebrations. You’ll be thankful you did. YUM! 🙂

FREE PIZZA? YES, PLEASE!

I don’t know if you’ve seen the commercials or not but Domino’s has a rewards program, Your Piece of the Pie Rewards, where you get points for each order you place. Every order you place of $10 or more, you get 10 points. When you reach 60 points, you get a free pizza. Boom. Simple as that. If you’ve followed our old blog at all, you know we love nothing more than free pizza. LaRosa’s from the Reds games. Donato’s from the Cyclones. Domino’s from the MLB DomiNoNo hitters. If it’s pizza and it’s free, we love it all! And tonight, we redeemed our very first free Domino’s Your Piece of the Pie Rewards pizza…

Heck yes! Redeem that free pizza!

Pizza emoji sent. Domino’s ordered. Smiley face. Mmm, free pizza…

Free makes pizza even more delicious…

We also ordered some of Domino’s Classic Hot Buffalo Specialty Chicken…

Delicious. And of course, no order from Domino’s would be complete without their Stuffed Cheesy Bread…

By getting the chicken and cheesy bread, we earned another 10 points towards our next free pizza! Thanks for the free pie Domino’s. Dinner was delicious! 🙂

Dingle House.

After every trip to Ikea, we always stop at Dingle House in West Chester for a bite to eat.

Genifer had this delicious Shamrock Salad…

On Sundays, all Irish fare is just $9.99. I almost felt obligated to order the fish & chips…
