The Rookwood Restaurant {CLOSED}

UPDATE ~ As of December 2016 the Rookwood is closed.  I’m eager to see what becomes of this unique space!

Over the Rhine is bursting at the seams with restaurants these days, and there’s just about every different kind of cuisine you can think of.   One of my recent favorites is Ché Argentinian Restaurant on Walnut Street.  Ché is probably most well known for their unique empanadas and gourmet pizza pies.  If you go with friends...

Sugar n' Spice

Sugar n’ Spice

I love breakfast. So much so that I sometimes wish we lived in the Shire with the Hobbits so that it would be socially acceptable to have second breakfast every day. Lunch is over-rated. I’m all for having two breakfasts a day and then dinner. But I don’t want just any breakfast. I want a...
