We had breakfast at First Watch on Seventh Street this morning. Little-by-little over the last few weeks, they’ve been doing some redecorating of their interior. It’s a very welcome update. It looks very rustic and farm-fresh now…
Brand new look inside, same great breakfasts…
And The Elevated Eggwich was one of the best breakfast sammiches I’ve ever had…
Even after all this time, First Watch is still one of the best options for breakfast in all of Central Business District. 🙂

Today was just a normal Thursday. Nothing really noteworthy happened all day. The highlight of our evening was ordering LaRosa’s calzones and salads for dinner…
YUM! Taken with Instagram. 🙂

This evening we walked up Vine Street into Over-the-Rhine to check out the brand new board game parlor called The Rook…
The Rook is Cincinnati’s first Board Game Parlor, and features nearly 1000 board games along with a full service bar and restaurant serving game night classics!
Growing up, we used to play Rack-O a lot…
I remember playing Hi-Ho Cherry-O…
And classics like Chutes and Ladders and Candy Land…
They had all sorts of drinks with nostalgic touchs like adding a candy necklace garnish, or a pop rock or pixie stick cover rim…
Genifer started with a Tequila Sunny D Rise…
We ordered everything from the “Straight from the Game Table” section of the menu. We tried the traditional classic rolls, bacon & sharp cheddar dogs and the cheesy buffalo chicken tots…
Everything was really good. But hands down the winner was the traditional classic rolls…
Then we got into some games. We started Chutes & Ladders and Candy Land…
And then we dove into some Sorry!
Genifer also tried the Capri Against Humanity drink…
How fun is that? We also played a few rounds of Exploding Kittens and multiple hands of Uno! It was a really fun trip down memory lane. And definitely one that we look forward to taking again very soon! Such a few evening! 🙂

We love chicken wings so this evening we walked across downtown…
To go check out Wing Wednesday at Americano Burger Bar…
We checked out the awesome $5 Americano Burger Tuesdays a little while back…
And could wait to devour some of Americano’s delicious wings. We’ve had their wings with the house rub before and they are some of the best wings around. Every Wednesday, the wings are just a mere 50¢ each. And you have to order them in quantities of six. So for $3, you get a little basket of deliciousness. They come in three flavors hot, BBQ and of course, the house rub…
We order six of the BBQ…
They were outstanding. And we ordered six of the house rub…
We really don’t know which ones we like better. They were both outstanding. But what we do know is that we’ll be back very soon for another Wing Wednesday at Americano Burger Bar. 🙂

After Asian Food Fest, we walked up Race Street….
To go to Taft’s Ale House…
While we were there, we had to get some smoked wings with tots and beer cheese…
And on the way home, we saw the Streetcar out and about…

We went to Nation Kitchen & Bar in Pendleton for a late lunch this afternoon…
We shared their fried bologna sammich, a grilled cheeses and some loaded tots…
Nation’s fried bologna sammich is just out of this world…
Afterwards, we hung around to watch The Derby and have a mint julep…
It was a fun afternoon. Awful lot of hype and build-up for such a short race. On the way home, we saw this city squirrel…

Genifer made dinner in the slow cooker tonight…
She made BBQ Pork chops topped with cheese & bacon with BBQ potatoes & onions and the side that goes with everything, garlic bread…
And it was delicious! Genifer does a pretty terrific job in the kitchen! 🙂
