Runs with knives!
For February, 2010, Dave & Robin selected Chi-nattis Pizza, and the food was pretty darned good! Deep dish pizzas, Italian beef submarines, fried calamari, and other dishes came (sorta slowly – it takes 30 minutes for a deep dish pie) out of the kitchen.
On Saturday, March 13, 2010, the Happy Mouth Supper Club met at The Rookwood for dinner. It was Tracy’s month to select, and also her birthday. The group met at the downstairs bar for “craft cocktails” before dinner. What “Craft Cocktails” in Cincinnati means to…
This was originally Jay’s month to pick. Because Jay’s mom was having a surgical procedure (which went well, by the way!), Wendy offered to switch months with Jay.
So, this month became Wendy’s month to select. She chose to host a brunch at The Comet in Northside. Ted, Tracy, Ron, Carrie, Wendy, and Andrew made it out that morning. The Comet, long known for their tasty burritos and great live music, recently started doing brunch on Sundays.
Chef Luke Radkey does a great job of turning out delicious dishes from a tiny kitchen. The menu features a few staples but changes slightly each week. You cannot go wrong with any of the brunch choices! Start your meal with a light mimosa to set a nice tone (I think it would be fun if Luke offered “mimosa two ways” – one of these and one of these!), then settle in for excellent, made-to-order brunch items.
Of particular interest to our table was the Sticky Toffee French Toast, while I went for an asparagus quiche that was a new menu item. Everything was delicious!
Despite the rather low turn-out (we had members tending to ailing relatives, out of town, etc), we had a great time at Happy Mouth. The brunch at the Comet is not to be missed!
I suggest you get there early – the doors open at 11:00am sharp – because it tends to fill up.
For this month’s Happy Mouth Supper Club outing, Kristy picked The Wildflower Cafe and Coffee House all the way out in Mason. It’s a bit of a haul, but well worth it. Our rowdy group had an entire room to ourselves (a good choice on…
This month’s outing of the Happy Mouth Supper Club was at IT’S JUST CREPES in downtown Cincinnati. It was Ted’s month to select, and he chose a fun, funky place. The restaurant, which is usually packed at lunchtime, is much less busy at dinner. We…
Hard to believe that summer has slipped by. It’s been head-down, busy around here. I apologize for the lack of updates. Expect a larger update soon.
On Wednesday August 31, the Happy Mouth Supper Club met at Green Papaya in Hyde Park for dinner. It was Holly’s selection, and she chose a fantastic place. Everything was inviting and comfortable, and we felt very welcome there. Our fabulous server closely examined our club’s plaque and asked us several questions about our group before endearingly exclaiming, “I am very exciting to serve you tonight!”.
We settled in for lovely dishes – from their Golden Bag appetizer to sushi, pad thai (including Holly’s awesome selection of crispy pad thai – a runaway hit), seafood basil (nicely spicy, that one), and much more. Everyone seemed to have a great experience with the food, and the conversation was certainly fun too. Service was very good, and food came out from the kitchen quickly.
After dinner, I went out to see the new cars that Julie & Angel were sporting… Cool stuff! Very nice new rides, girls!
Another successful Happy Mouth!
On Friday, September 23, a group of us met for the monthly Happy Mouth Supper Club outing. It was Wendy’s month to select, and she chose MERITAGE (which rhymes with “heritage”), a new restaurant that has opened in Glendale. It was a great selection, and we (Ted,…
