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!

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 ...

Noodlecat's Dream Buns

If you're strolling through downtown Cleveland we hope you stumble into Noodlecat . Located on Euclid Ave, you will be surrounded by a few different popular restaurants, don't be shy! Try them all! From our experience you can't go wrong. Noodlecat serves up three main options noodles, buns, and veggies. Unfortunately we did not come for noodles on this visit, we came for the Japanese Steam Buns! We picked 2 of the 5 bun options they had available and went with the J-fried Chicken bun and the Fresh bacon bun. These Buns are Japanese white bread sandwiches each topped with lettuce and pickle. For the J-fried Chicken Bun, this soft steam bun has a piece of fried chicken, sweet and spicy power ketchup. At first bite you're in love. The fresh steam buns are amazing. The chicken was crispy, tangy, and delicious but it was no match for the next bun that we tried! The Fresh Bacon Bun was filled with a delicious slice of lightly smoked, sugar ...

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...
