India-MANIA!!!

We decided we should try incorporating different cuisines into our blog. After searching a few well known sites like yelp, and Groupon, we went with New India Restaurant.

There was a few different Indian restaurants on Groupon at the time, but this one was the closest to our work and had decent reviews. One yelper commented "it's truly a hidden gem". And we think he may be right.


Upon spotting the bland generic "New Indian Restaurant" lit up sign, we were curious about this so called gem.

When you enter the restaurant it has the unique, inviting decor and atmosphere you're always hoping to find at an Indian eatery. We had a good feeling right away that we were going to enjoy this place.

We went for the Chicken Tikka. 

It was definitely tasty. First things first, if you're very hungry, and looking to be really full, then this place has you covered. They brought out a towering mountain of deeply seasoned chicken, smothering the onions and peppers buried beneath.



The chicken could not have been cooked any better, and the actual indian flavor was spot on. All the spices play the Indian role in this dish and that's what made it so flavorful. 



If you find yourself wanting a little extra something to go with it, we prefer getting a nice side of New India's yogurt sauce to top everything off. The yogurt sauce simmers down the spices a notch, and at the same time creates that one of a kind indian taste.

We also couldn't resist having a nice piece of naan to play yet another role in the Indian cuisine.

Very delcious. We will definitely be back! Next time we're going for the Masala!

We hope you've enjoyed this week's post! We will be bringing you another very soon!

Yours Truly, Tasty

Roosters, it's an Ohio thing!

We are so proud to be from Ohio for so many reasons, and Roosters being one of them!  Roosters is a restaurant that only 'Ohioans' or Ohio visitors know about. It's not a five star fancy schmansy restaurant, just a tasty and fun place to eat at on a weekend or after a long days work. The famous slogan really speaks for itself "A fun, casual, joint", but it doesn't happen to mention the delicious food they have available!  We are regular Rooster customers, we usually go a couple of times a month. We usually stick with our favorites from the menu, but you really can't go wrong with anything they have to offer. Whether it's the loaded nachos, a burger, or their tender boneless wings dipped in your choice of TOP OF THE LINE wing sauce, you wont be disappointed. Most of the time we go with the boneless wings drenched in tangy sweet Thai chili sauce. The quality of the meat is unbeatable, but the big kicker for us is the sauce. The sweet

Amorino has the Gelato

  Oh gelato, you make me smile, especially in the form of a beautiful rose. Yes, you read that correctly, gelato in the shape of a rose. You can find this so called rose shaped gelato at Amarino in Chicago. After hearing about this place, I HAD to add it to our itinerary while we were back in the Windy City. Amarino is downtown, and we didn’t have that much trouble finding parking. We went later in the afternoon; I would say around 5 p.m. and found Amarino to be especially empty. When you enter the double sliding doors (cool touch) you will be right in front of their gelato selections. They have a wide selection. We came for the rose, but you are able to get a simple bowl instead as well.  When finally deciding what flavors we wanted we ended up with Pistachio, cookie butter, and chocolate. The flavors went very well together. We watched in awe as the server sculpted a beautiful rose master piece in front of us. It turned out so pretty!

Fatso's.. hopefully Not-so Last Stand

Fatso’s Last Stand is a "somewhat" fast food restaurant that can also be found on the outskirts of Chicago. When it comes to hot-dogs, Chicago is the place you want to be. For those who may not know, the traditional Chicago dog includes an all-beef frank placed on a poppy seed bun, with a lot of toppings such as, white onions, bright green sweet pickle relish, a dill pickle spear, tomato slices, pickled peppers, and lastly yellow mustard. Out of the many, many, places in Chicago you can find a great hot dog we wound up at Fatso’s. Not only does Fatso’s offer great hot-dogs, they have their own spin on hamburgers. The burger is famously named “The Fatso Burger” and we couldn’t leave without trying both. When ordering you’ll also notice that all of their hot-dogs are served Chicago style, but you can add or remove all the toppings that you would like. Fatso’s has a few different types of hot-dogs to pick from in terms of the meat and style
