Taste of Belgium now at Luckman’s in Anderson

January 28, 2009

Did you know that I was in Belgium for four hours and declined to get a waffle– though they had them at the airport– because I knew that Jean-Francois’ amazing gaufres had spoiled me? I’ve had them in New York (not great) and Paris (also not great, to which Jean-Francois said, “Of course. You were [...]

It’s a snow day!

January 28, 2009

Well, it’s day two of who knows how many snow days. Terry’s been off school and I’ve been working from home. Conference calls are way more fun with a cat in your lap, don’t you think? So what are you doing in all of this snow? We walked down to Vine Street Kroger for some [...]

Review: Cafe Mediterranean

January 26, 2009

Longtime readers of the blog know that I don’t often head to the suburbs. I’m a city girl, and though I don’t insist on staying close to home, I focus on the urban core. So when a friend asked me to meet her for lunch in Anderson, I actually jumped on the chance– broaden my [...]

Go read Just Cured.

January 25, 2009

Just do it. This is the best commentary on the entire Jean-Robert/Wade situation, and about Cincinnati dining both past and present, that I’ve heard or read. (Plus, Michael has a great blog in general that you should read… and his smoked products are to die for.)

Pigall’s closing, Jean Robert leaving group

January 22, 2009

What a blow to the Cincinnati restaurant scene, though I’ve heard rumors for months. I have heard that it is a disagreement, mostly, between the Management and talent, but I’m sure you guys know more than I do. Thoughts? Will we ever have a 4 star restaurant again? (Here’s some more of the scuttlebutt we’ve [...]

Congratulations (again), Pigall’s….

January 22, 2009

For yet another year of 4 Mobil stars. Here’s hoping they do the 4-star dinner like they did last year! It’s the only restaurant in Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana to receive 4 stars.
