Review: Sunday Brunch at Hough’s
Posted by mike | Filed under Breakfast, Reviews
A little over a week ago, I met a whole slew of new people at a Birthday Party for a friend. Okay, maybe it was closer to a handful of enw people, but who’s counting? Two of them (a couple, in fact) happened to live in Greenfield not too far from my house. Actually, they [...]

It’s time for some FoodBurgh catch-up. I’ve been hitting up a number of places in the past few weeks (new and old) that deserve a review, but have been struggling to find a chance to post. Now it’s time to push through a few quick reviews and clear the queue for next week…starting with China [...]

This is a tough one for me to write up. Mostly, that’s because your sense of my credibility is impaired by the fact that Giant Eagle is very clearly working to court some blogger buzz. They’re sponsoring a contest here, hosted a VIP blogger reception/tour, and sent us all home with enormous gift baskets filled [...]
