It's the freakin' Katalina Wine Mixer

Okay, okay it's not really the wine mixer. It is just as tasty though. 


Katalina's can be found in Columbus OH, on Pennsylvania Avenue. They are open for breakfast and brunch. We wish they would extend their hours- only because we want their food ALL THE TIME.

Their motto- Peace, Love, and Pancake Balls. 
So appealing, am I right?




We found out about this very, very, little hot spot while on Instagram. After seeing all of the beautiful food this restaurant was offering up we swooped in for a taste. 

When arriving at Katalina's be sure to watch for their parking lot. Don't be a goof and pay for parking like we did. They offer a public lot behind the restaurant and there are signs up stating you do not need to pay to park while at the restaurant. Unfortunately, we did not read these signs until after we had already paid. It's okay though, because the balls made up for it. Pancake balls that is. 

Yes, you heard right. Pancake balls. 

After browsing over the menu while standing in line at the small restaurant we made our decisions very quickly. It was a Saturday morning and the place was absolutely packed. There was not much time to look the menu over, but we both ended up happy with our final decisions. 

When our order was placed, we had to kind of stand and wait on a table to open up. Seating is first come first serve. No one will help you get a table. We had a group of 4, and had been there waiting on a table before another group had and they swooped a table before we did. So again, pay attention! 

Anyways, after all the chaos, we were finally seated and at the window bar. (YES! Because, great lighting for photos) We didn't have to wait long after seated for our food to be brought out. 




As mentioned earlier, I went with Katalina's famous pancake balls






The pancake balls were so, so, so, good. They are filled with Nutella and have powdered sugar generously sprinkled over them. Also served with their own take on Bacon- spicy maple. It was also a real treat.



Seth went with something a little less sugary. 

Katalina's Award Winning Breakfast Tacos

Served with three beautifully created tacos these were also a hit. The tacos actually won First-place in  a contest for the City of Columbus! 

What is in them you may ask? Well let me tell you- three white corn Koki's tortillas filled with Katalina's housemade chorizo, scrambled eggs, tomatillo, avocado, queso fresco, Snowville crema, and of course pico de gallo. 

The goodness doesn't stop there though. It is also served with Elote Cuban Cob corn. 

Seth loved every single bite. I also tried the tacos as well, and I must say they were delightful. 

If we had to pick a few places we loved in Columbus for breakfast or brunch, we would definitely have Katalina's on the list. Such great flavors and also fun and affordable. We would prefer to try going during the middle of the week though, in hopes for them to be a little less packed and more room! 

Thank you Katalina! 
Till next time, 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 ...

Tasty Tidbitt meets Tasty Made

Being owned by Chipotle, Tasty Made is a new burger joint with their first location being built in Lancaster, Ohio. So for the simple fact that we are Ohioans and Chipotle fans, we were very excited for this review and to be one of the first food blogs to review the Tasty Made restaurant. To start off, the decor and atmosphere of the restaurant is much like a Five Guys restaurant with a lot of red and white. It's not really what you expect when you think of Chipotle walking in. The menu was very small which isn't always a bad thing in a restaurant, especially a new one. There is nothing worse than a menu that is simply too large. The menu is basically the Tasty Made Original Burger, Cheeseburger, Hamburger, fresh made fries, milkshakes and sodas. All of the burgers can be ordered with an extra patty, called a double. We decided we would go with their signature burger, which is a meat patty on a bun topped with lettuce, tomato, pickle and their bacon sauce. The ...
