Pizza Barn's 2 FEET of AWESOME

Upon our most recent visit to New York, I'm sure you can guess what we had to try.

Pizza

Browsing the best places to have pizza in NY can be kind of time consuming. Everyone that has been in NY has their personal favorite. So I thought to myself, we have tried many different pizza places in NY already, and they are all usually pretty good. So, why not look for something different. Something whimsical.

I found Pizza Barn.

When I came across this restaurant on Pinterest I was like, okay it is definitely going on our itinerary. After adding it to the list, and making our hectic drive to NY, we finally made it to Yonkers.

Now, don't be dismayed by the outside of the building. What you find on the inside is what counts.

We walked inside to find there was a few people waiting to get their food to go, and even some people waiting for a table to open so they could eat inside. We decided we would just take ours with us. We were in a hurry. (what else is new)

We ordered the two foot slice of cheese.

It was not long before our name was called to come grab our food. We took it out to the car (Big booty Judy) only to find that the pizza box was just entirely too big to try to hold on my lap. Also it was summer and very hot that day.

We noticed there was a small park nearby and took our loot to the bleachers and enjoyed the sun!

Look at this masterpiece.

It was fun doing different poses with the giant slice and we enjoyed the pizza itself afterward. Although I would not say this is the best tasting pizza in NY, I would say it is a fun must do when you are in that area. Yonkers is above Manhattan and the typical go-to places, but it is worth the drive.

Thank you Pizza barn for keeping things cool. Your fellow foodie, 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
