Sweet Carrot has the cakes!

Columbus, Ohio is home to many delicious restaurants. There are plenty of great food spots in ohio and quite a variety of them. We kept our eyes peeled and landed on a great pick for our next blog... Sweet Carrot!

This place isn't like many restaurants in Ohio, the most popular thing on the menu is the corncake. They have many selections of drinks such as beer and they even have their own soda! But what we came for was the corncakes! The corncakes are so tasty, its definitly a must try at Sweet Carrot. The corncake has kernels of corn throughout the entire cake which makes it sort of fun to eat. Each corncake is served with house made slaw, corn salsa, and homade sauce. They have many different variations of flavors on top of these corn cakes such as meat balls and pork, which is what we opted for!

Corncake with Pulled Pork

We are going to start by saying that each corncake is quite delcious. The soft sweet and (because of the corn kernals) crunchy corncake was a perfect base for all of these delcious ingredients to sit upon. The pulled pork was out of this world, it was tender and had such a great barbecue flavor and a crispy outer edge that gave it such a nice touch. It tasted how barbecue is supposed to taste. The sauce had a sweetness but also a tanginess that was perfect for such a wonderfully cooked pulled pork. Another great thing about this menu is that they also give you the option to load your corncake with Mac and Cheese, which we gladly requested. The mac and cheese was clearly homade and very tasty and went well with the pulled pork as a good mac and cheese always does with great barbecue.

Corncake with Chicken Meatballs

The chicken meatballs were made with a great selection of herbs that are both visible and tastable. It was greatly flavored with the traditional meatball taste but simply using chicken rather than any other dark meat. The sauce was absolutly stunning, it was tangy and had a kick to it and tasted phenonenol on the meatballs. And much like the pulled pork on the corn cake, the meatballs also went great with corncake as well. The entire dish is smothered in slaw, sweet chili sauce, scallions, corn salsa and other perfect ingredients. Everything worked out so well together. We would have changed nothing about this dish. Great job, Sweet Carrot!

Sweet Carrot is easily one of the most unique restaurants we've been to in Ohio. We definitely will be coming back. All around, it's a fun place to go whether you're out to have a drink or a delcious bite to eat, Sweet Carrot has what you're looking for!
Until our next review, 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...

Bourbon, burgers, and Bar Louie!

This restaurant may sound familiar to some. We've eaten here before and have never been disappointed with the food or service. Stop into Bar Louie for some great food and and a great late night type of atmosphere, or maybe just after doing a little shopping in the mall. Bourbon Bacon Burger Just by looking at the special limited time menu of this burger and many other special sandwiches alike, we knew this burger would be incredibly flavorful. A beautifully cooked meat patty deserves nothing better than a beautifully crafted sauce and delcious toppings to back them up. A perfect meat patty topped with cheddar cheese, bacon, a delcious bourbon sauce and a nice stack of fried onion straws... It's making my mouth water just thinking about it... Unsurprisingly, the look of the burger was astonishing. The juicy patty had a decent portion of crispy onion straws that make the presentation really stick out. The first bite ...

Screendoor, What Mo' Could'ya Ask Fo'

On our Oregon vacation and exploration, we headed out to a specific well known location for breakfast. Screendoor Much like many old fashion restaurants, Screendoor in Portland Oregon is extremely popular. The vibe of the restaurant is very positive, and the decor and atmosphere is warm and makes you feel at home. The lighting of the restaurant is very soft on a beautiful autumn Portland morning, and nothing goes better with a crisp cool fall day than delicious breakfast. We browsed the simple menu, and selected our meals quickly. We had a big day ahead of us. Seth opted for their famous chicken and waffle dish, while I on the other hand went with the Texas Veggie Migas. (I can't ever pass up a good Mexican classic) Chicken and Waffles The presentation of the dish was impressive, the orange peal on top of the portions of breakfast goodness was a gorgeous touch. The chicken was absolutely homemade, hand breaded, and cooked to perfection. The flavor of the ch...
