Wodka Bar+Pins Rooftop Patio.

This afternoon we ventured down into Over-the-Rhine to check out the new Wodka Bar on Main Street with our friends, Chris and Tayler…

Wodka Bar is almost exclusively all craft vodka. We all shared a vodka flight…

Genifer also tried a pickle martini…

I tried their take on a White Russian called Russian Collusion. I would have ordered it just for the name alone…

It was really good but not as good as my favorite White Russian in all of Cincinnati over at Northside Distilling Company. We also shared some potato pierogis…

The pierogis were simply amazing. I was really digging the Eastern European artwork in the bathrooms…

And the ornate Sistine Chapel-esque ceiling in the bathroom as well…

Wodka Bar is a pretty neat place. From there, we walked down Main Street back to Pins Mechanical to check out their rooftop patio…

We played some rooftop patio giant Jenga…

And we played some rooftop patio Bocce ball…

Pins had this awesome fruit punch and Sprite mocktail that was delicious…

It was another really fun afternoon in OtR. 😀🍸❤️

Sam Adams Taproom+The Italian Truck.

On the way home tonight, we stopped at the Sam Adams Taproom in Over-the-Rhine…

We shared one of Sam Adams famous and delicious giant pretzels…

But we didn’t realize The Italian Truck was out on Sam Adams patio…

We had to give them a try. We don’t get to try food trucks like we used to. So who knows when we’d get another chance. We ordered a Meatball Burrito, which was very good…

And Mozzarella Sticks because who doesn’t love Mozzarella Sticks?

And we took home a couple of cannoli for later…

It was all really good stuff. Speaking of stuffed, we definitely were.

And look at that gorgeous sky…

Dang. So pretty. It was a very tasty Friday evening! 😀🍺🥨🇮🇹❤️

Thursdays are for sharing Whip burgers.

We really like sharing a Whip Classic and fries at QCR on Thursdays. 😀🍔🍟❤️

Northside Wednesday.

After work tonight, we stopped to check out the Northside Farmers Market…

We hadn’t been to the Farmers Market yet this summer. After checking it out, we crossed the street to have a slice of Chameleon pizza and some spicy cheese balls…

Chameleon cheese pizza is soooo good.

It was a pretty good Northside Wednesday. 😀🍕🧀❤️

Tuesday Steak Night at Galla Park.

Down in The Banks where Crave used to be is now a place called Galla Park. Tonight after work, we stopped at Galla Park. Because tonight was the very first Galla Park Tuesday Steak Night…

We each enjoyed an amazingly delicious 14oz. Prime New York Strip of certified angus beef, fried garlic & herb redskin potatoes and a Caesar salad for just $19!

And Genifer enjoyed a delicious craft cocktail for only $5 but I forgot to take a photo of it. I wish every Tuesday could be this delicious. 😀🥩🥗🥃❤️

We ate this.

At work, there are two entire refrigerators that are stocked full of different food items for everyone to enjoy. They almost always have a bunch of different loaves of bread, cheeses, ham and/or turkey. And today, I made myself first sammich I made with the company lunch meat at Grey Midwest…

It’s pretty cool. And pretty brilliant. If you give your employees access to a bunch of different food stuffs, they’ll make themselves something to eat and get back to work instead of running out and taking a long lunch. Pretty clever.

And then we had spaghetti and garlic bread for dinner…

I love spaghetti and garlic bread. 😀🥪🍝❤️

It was a really fun Saturday.

This morning we were out running errands and got coffees from Hyde Perk…

Later, we went down to Over-the-Rhine. We stopped to admire OtR’s Ziegler Park…

Then we stopped at The Pony for lunch. They had Bell’s Pineapple Jalapeno Oberon on tap. And it was sooooo good…

The Pony has some of the best chicken tenders in all of Cincinnati…

Then we walked down Main Street to finally get to check out the relatively new Pins Mechanical Company just down from The Pony…

Pins has Duck Pin Bowling…

We didn’t try any bowling. We’ll have to save that fun for another time. And upon the second floor of Pins…

Pins has a whole bunch of pinball machines…

Upon the third floor, they have an awesome patio with a bocce ball court and giant Jenga. But that is another story for another time. On the way home, we stopped at Second Place to watch the end of the Champions League Final…
