"Oh, Columbus, I Never Should Have Let You Go..."

Dinner 8/04

It's vacation week, so we made the 2 hour trip down I-71 to visit my sister and brother-in-law in Columbus.

After the drive, we started with lunch at Udipi Cafe -- we've gone to the one in Parma Hts., and this was also an excellent South Indian buffet -- the kids really liked the dosas.

A trip to Columbus also means we have to make the pilgrimage to Pattycake Bakery for a post-thunderstorm* snack (sadly, no pictures of the whoopie pies & gigantic chocolate brownie), a trip to North Market for some produce to take home and we finished the day with dinner at Dragonfly Neo-V Cuisine.

Thanks to my sister for taking pictures with her iPhone.

We started with the pizza and its delicious mix of tomato and roasted red bell pepper sauce, topped with cherry tomatoes & olives -- nice crust too...



Next up is the Crusted Portobello Mushroom & Ratatouille stack with Mashed Potatoes.



Finally, the Lemony Risotto with Grilled Tofu.

Thanks also to the staff & chef for the gazpacho amuse and chocolate-coated strawberries.


* Dear people of Columbus: When the power is out all over High St., please treat the lack of working signals at intersections as four-way stops. Thank you.
