Terry's Tavern - Linden Ave., Zanesville, Ohio

With a little help from our friends...


An evening with good friends finds us at Terry's Tavern on Saturday, June 15, 2013.


Good times and "The Best Burgers in Town", Ed, Sherry, Linda and Roy were all in agreement!!!
 
Lori goes for something different, Ham and Cheese, with Egg, served on Wheat Bread- "Excellent" she says!!
 
Peg goes for a special order, Egg sandwich with Pickles, she gives it 2 thumbs up!!
 
We also enjoyed several bowls of popcorn, $1 a bag, and locally made Conn's snacks - thanks Ron!!
 
 
 We all had a great time sitting on the patio!  Even had the chance to check out the Lorena as it went by!!  Good Friends, what a great way to spend the evening!

The menu at Terry's is small, but what they serve is good food, I have heard great things about their chili as well.

If you are looking for a relaxing evening, and something light to eat, we would recommend giving Terry's a try.  There is usually entertainment and Ernie is always fun to watch!!

Special Thanks to our friends, Lori, Linda, Roy, Ron, Peggy, Ed, Sherry, Emily, John, Megan, and Travis for a fun evening as usual!

Pappy's Grill on 79 - Heath Ohio

Dinner on Friday, June 7, 2013 we try Pappy's Grill in Heath

We start with Frog Legs- Beer battered and served with your choice of sauces for dipping.  Randy and Eli really enjoyed them!


Randy ordered the Mahi Reuben, he has had this before and really liked it!!


Eli ordered a grilled cheese and fries, served on a frisbee.  He finished the grilled cheese, "it was yummy".

I had a burger and fries, it was good- hard to mess up a burger.

We enjoy Pappy's, the food is good, the service is great.  They have a really neat, patio type area.  Warning,  it can get a little loud inside. 

The menu includes bugers, seafood, wings, and pizza.  We would go back, and would recommend it to anyone!!

Enjoy, and be a member of the clean plate club!!!

#Copperpenny

Tonight dinner is close to home, a favorite - the Copper Penny.  There is a band there tonight and the patio is packed, boats everywhere!  We were able to find a table on a different level of the patio where we could still hear the music and have a little conversation. 

Randy orders an "All the Way- Calzone", really good eats, several people walking by stopped to ask what Randy had ordered and if it was good, of course he offers them all a piece!

I had a Grilled Chicken Sandwich with cheese, and french fires. It was a good sandwich, and the fries were similar to fair fries- my favorite!


It was a great evening, great food, and our waitress Sarah was great too, she took care of us, checking on us often, and just made our night!!!!  Nice job Sarah :)

La Cascade Mexican Restaurant

1421 River Valley Blvd., Lancaster, Ohio                     #lacascademexicanrestaurant
Monday, May 27, 2013

Honesty is what we are striving for with our Blog, and we want to say, upon mixed reviews from our check-in on Four Square, we considered leaving prior placing our order.  But life is an adventure so...

We enjoyed nacho's and salsa for a starter.

Randy ordered a Beef Burrito, Chili Relleno, and a Taco- not bad but those Four Square reviews weigh heavy on our mind.
 
 
 
I went with plain and simple- Chicken Taco's- I was able to eat one of them, but reading those reviews really stole my appitite!!
 
I don't think we will go back, i didn't find anything wrong with the food, but our appitates were gone!

Indy's Historic Steer-In


Indianapolis, IN 
Sunday, May 26. 2013        #indyshistoricsteerin

The races were rained out, we start home Sunday and ride the first 200 miles in the rain- this stinks!!

Looking for lunch on the "Food Network On The Road" app in search of our next adventure. 


We start with something "Guy" enjoyed according to the menu - Irish Nachos, we were both surprised and would like to see other establishments do something like this- YUM!!

Randy again goes with one of Guy's favorites - the Fried Chicken, Mashed Potatoes & Gravy, and a
Salad.  He really like the chicken, very moist!!


I tried the Grilled Chicken with French Fries, and Mac 'n Cheese- it was all good.

The Food Channel did not let us down, the place was neat, and the food was good- small town kinda diner, we would go back just for the Irish Nacho's!!!





D'Arcy's Pint - Irish Pub

Jerome, IL
Saturday, May 25, 2013                #darcyspint

Dinner Saturday evening is also a return visit, tonight, our friends Woody & Linda join us!  The place is packed, and from what we remember, and have seen,  it is always like this!

Randy orders the Oyster Combo Platter - A selection of 3 Guinness Oysters topped with a creamy sauce, breadcrumbs & a blend of cheeses, 3 Bunratty Castle Oysters with spinach, cheese, & breadcrumbs; and 4 lightly breaded, deep-fried Oysters. He really seemed to enjoy them!


I ordered D'Arcy's Famous Shoe - 1/2 Pint-  Pony Shoe!  Hey this is what we came for!!!  Grilled Chicken served over Texas toast, piled high with fries and topped with our unforgettable homemade cheese sauce.  I also had them add tomato.  This is good!! And a lot of food, you can order it with just about anything, if you are there - why not give it a shot!!


Woody and Linda both order burgers, and they both said they were really good.
 
They also ordered a Chocolate Chunk Brownie- and boy did they enjoy it!! "fudgy texture of a brownie with chunks of chocolate, OMG, this Brownie is so good!"  It looked really good too.
 

Our waitress was great, we ended up sitting at the bar because there was  a 45 minute wait, and just a word of caution, these stools are tall, I struggled to get onto the chair and slipped getting out- Ouch!

Another stop added to our AMA weekend, we like it, we will go back, and highly recommend it!!
