Taglio OtR.

After work this evening, we stopped at the new OtR Taglio. We’ve been to the Taglio out in Columbia-Tusculum a handful of times, and we thought their Detroit-style deep-dish pizza was just terrific. We were really excited to try their new location at 12th and Walnut Streets in Over-the-Rhine.

Since it was happy hour, we ordered these monster mozzarella sticks…

Then it was time for the main event, we had ordered the Pepperoni and Hot Honey deep-dish Detroit-style pizza. And it finally arrived…

Their pizza is delicious! When we were getting ready to leave, we saw Faces in Places…

We love Taglio’s pizza. It’s so dang good. 😀🍕❤️

It’s what’s for dinner.

Genifer made another one of the Kroger Prep+Pared House Chef Express meals for dinner tonight. This one was Ginger Steak and Peppers with peanuts and jasmine rice…

And it was another really delicious Kroger prep+pared meal. 😀🍜❤️

FC Cincinnati versus NYCFC.

Today, our FC Cincinnati played host to New York City Football Club. Before the match, we stopped at Mac’s Pizza Pub for pizza and boneless chicken wings…

And then we headed over to Nippert Stadium for the match…

Back in the day, they had some really big-name, international superstar players like David Villa and Andrea Pirlo and I suppose to a lesser degree, Frank Lampard…

But to be honest with you, I couldn’t name one player from this current NYCFC squad…

FC Cincinnati jumped out to a 1-0 lead…

It should have been a 2-0 lead, but FC Cincinnati had a penalty saved. And then NYCFC rattled off 4 unanswered goals…

And NYCFC would go on to defeat FC|C 4-1.

Thankfully, there are just five more home games in this very long inaugural MLS season of FC Cincinnati soccer. 😀⚽️❤️

Downtown Big Boy.

The corner of downtown I work in is somewhat of a food void. There just isn’t a lot in the southwest corner of downtown’s Central Business District as far as food options go. Even when we lived downtown, we didn’t even go over to that corner of downtown because there isn’t much there. At all. But today, I ventured out to try to find something for lunch. After wandering for a bit, I ended up at the relatively new Frisch’s Big Boy in Carew Tower…

I ended up getting a patty melt and fries to go…

And it was pretty good stuff. I have a feel Big Boy might become one of my new go-to places when I need to run out to get something to eat for lunch. 😀🍔🍟❤️

Slow down and grill.

We grilled up some chicken and hot dogs this evening…

YUM! Everything tastes better on the grill. 😀🌭🐔❤️

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. 😀🐔🥓🥬🍅🥪❤️

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! 😀🍻🎂❤️

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…
