Luckys Cafe

On our second trip to Cleveland, we stopped at a very well known restaurant in the Tremont area that you may have seen on the Food Network T.V. show, 'Diners, Drive-in, and Dives'. It goes by the name of Lucky's Cafe.




The interior of the restaurant was unique just as you expect from seeing the exterior of the restaurant. Every bit of food in the restaurant is homemade, and farm fresh. The entire menu looked absolutely appetizing.

After browsing we decided we couldn't pass up their famous biscuits and gravy called Biscuits for short. And we also decided on the Shipwreck, because it had so many different toppings we wanted to see how it would pan out.

BISCUITS AND GRAVY


Lucky's famous biscuits and gravy are out of this world. Crispy and flavorful scallion and cheese biscuits, topped with farm fresh scrambled eggs and covered in Lucky's sausage gravy and finished with a nice sprinkle of scallions. What sounds better than that? Each item of the dish has so many great qualities. The biscuits alone have such a great flavor of cheddar and scallions along with the crispy outside and fluffy inside. The eggs are clearly fresh and cooked perfectly, the gravy was phenomenal, it had a slight sharpness to go with the creaminess and the scallions gave it a nice mild kick. We've never had biscuits and gravy like this. You also get a nice side of grapes on the side which actually were quite good with this dish. The thirst quenching grapes were a nice pallet cleanser after a hefty portion of gravy, biscuits and potatoes.


SHIPWRECK


The Shipwreck was also a very delcious brunch dish. It consists of hash browns, eggs, seasonal veggies, bacon, cheddar cheese and a sprinkle of scallions. All of these farm fresh ingredients went so well together as you would expect. The potatoes were golden brown and cooked perfectly, the bacon and cheddar cheese was added at the perfect amount and the veggies gave a nice zestful flavor that really gives the entire plate a little extra something. Let's not forget about the very tasty farm fresh eggs. Just by taste alone you can tell that all of the ingredients had much quality that you can't find at any restaurant you visit. We were definitly pleased with everything we recieved at Lucky's.




One thing that's for sure, Cleveland is a great place to find good food and Lucky's Cafe is definitly on the top of list when it comes to a good breakfast/brunch. We are definitely coming back and trying more delcious food! See you next time, 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 ...

Picklesburgh!

Pittsburgh, PA is not only a fun city to visit, but they have one of most unique traditions of many, the Picklesburgh pickle festival!! We are huge fans of pickles, and we had a blast on previous travels to Pittsburgh, so this event was perfect for us! In this particular post we are going to be telling you about all of our delicious encounters of Picklesburgh. Picklesburgh has everything pickles! Name it and most likely they have it. Anything from pickle brine chicken, pickle soda, to even pickle moonshine, and pickle cupcakes. We were lucky enough to try a good handful of these pickled creations. When we first arrived in Pittsburgh we kept our eyes peeled for the giant pickle floating in the sky! It was surely there floating above all of the delicious pickle stands and happy festival goers. It had a very fun feel being there because of the fact that it is all located on the famous Roberto Clement Bridge. Our first goal when we arrived was getting a one of a kind selfie with t...
