So yes, they ARE hard up for content. lol

I just came here to say that the author of this article, John M. Clark, might be the best, most journalistic writer of this whole organization. Take a look at all the articles he's written. They are all well-written, grammatically correct, and generally interesting, filled with facts and interviews.

Crunchick will be at the market every Saturday through September 26, from 9 a.m.-12 p.m.

What market? There's no mention of a market in this article except for you saying they will be "at the market".

Great reporting as always. /s

I'm surprised the article didn't refer to Dayton as "central Ohio"...

Re: Columbus donut shop introduces gourmet version of Little Debby Christmas Tree Cakes

trx0x — Tue, 02 Dec 2025 15:45:51 -0000

I feel that, for many people, the draw of the Little Debbie Christmas Tree Cake is the colorful large crystalline sugar sprinkled on top, which give the cake the signature crunch with every bite. From this pic, it looks like they used jimmies for the sprinkles, not to mention it's not even cake, it's a a brioche donut. I will stick to the factory-produced hydrogenated oils version.

Re: ‘Seattle’s favorite bakery’ launching pop-up in Columbus

trx0x — Wed, 08 Oct 2025 18:26:31 -0000

Just a note for people that don't know, and the article only briefly mentions it: this "pop-up" is for picking up frozen pre-orders. You basically order online, and then by picking it up at the pop-up, you save on shipping.

I don't understand the hype for the wings. They're mediocre at best.

Re: Popular ramen restaurant transforms into new restaurant with new name & menu

trx0x — Mon, 08 Sep 2025 18:07:29 -0000

It's still owned by the same people. The menu for this Izakaya Ryu has all the same items as when it was Fukuryu Ramen, only now they added skewers. They rebranded the Polaris Fukuryu location into Haru, which is now a restaurant that serves only sushi, omakase-style.

It seems fitting that the guy complaining about getting death threats is the same person who has been charged for attempted murder.

Re: National travel guide says this Columbus restaurant serves the ‘best chicken fingers you’ll ever taste’

According to Family Destinations Guide, a travel guide that creates “best of” lists all around the nation, the “best chicken fingers you’ll ever taste” are from The Crispy Croop,

Can't even get the name right. SMH

Re: Graeter’s Ice Cream finally planning to come to this Columbus suburb

trx0x — Thu, 14 Aug 2025 17:04:13 -0000

TIL: Delaware is a suburb of Columbus. And that it takes "30+ minutes" to drive from Delaware to the nearest Graeter's located in Powell.

Re: Jeni’s releasing mysterious all-black ice cream to be featured in NYC art exhibit; Flavor still a secret

trx0x — Thu, 07 Aug 2025 19:14:37 -0000

"Meaning, no gimmicks. No shock value. No activated charcoal or unnatural colorings. Instead, this ice cream would be an excavation of flavor — an all-senses-engaged peeling back of layers upon layers of tastes, textures, and aromas.”

No charcoal or food coloring, huh? My guess is a combination of black cocoa powder, squid ink, and black sesame. That accounts for the "layers of tastes, textures, and aromas".

Re: Longtime Cameron Mitchell GM bringing new “nostalgia-inspired” restaurant to Hilliard

trx0x — Fri, 01 Aug 2025 18:10:37 -0000

The eatery, part of Bush’s Culinary Collectives brand, will be “Chef driven, nostalgia inspired, and guest attuned,” although the restaurant’s name and menu details have not been announced yet.

Well, that's a lot of buzzwords. So basically, a restaurant will open, and it will serve food, and no other details exist. lol

Re: International Korean-Chinese noodle chain opens first Columbus location

trx0x — Thu, 17 Jul 2025 08:50:15 -0000

The concept offers everything from stir fry and fried rice to jjamppong, a spicy Korean soup dish, and jjamppong, a noodle dish topped with a thick, sweet and savory sauce.

Second dish mentioned should be "jjajangmyeon", because this site can never have an article be correct.

Re: Say hello to Central Ohio’s first ‘dirty soda’-dedicated food truck

“At Easter this year we were sitting around chatting. I have a foundation pop addiction, and my sisters had asked if I knew about dirty sodas. I said, ‘Of course, I try to make them at home. There’s nothing around here like that,’ and the idea kind of grew from there,” Rummell said.

But…you can already get dirty sodas from a lot of fast food places…? I've been getting them at Sonic since last summer. And they don't cost $6.

This sucks. This was the only Korean dine-in restaurant in the campus area. And now it's going to be a coffee shop? Great, that area doesn't have enough of those…🙄

Re: This Columbus restaurant serves ‘the best gyros in the state’ according to national travel guide

trx0x — Sat, 21 Jun 2025 14:17:12 -0000

I know the campus one closed, but it looks like Downtown is still open. But it also looks they've changed to a Chipotle-style menu. Why the hell does every place have to a be a "choose your own bowl" place??

Loops in Grandview makes a traditional pork gyro named The Titan that I always get with only onion and tomato and tzatziki, like how it's supposed to be. I guarantee the pork gyro there is better than this "best gyros in the state" place.

Re: Feds: Westerville woman faked pizza shop affiliation in $2.8 million pandemic relief scheme

If she got $1.9 million in PPP loans for impersonating The Flying Pizza, the least she could have done was to OPEN an actual Flying Pizza location here. It's been 10+ years since I was able to get a couple slices and a drink (filled to the brim with ice) on campus.

Just your standard 614 Now "click bait" title. Jack doesn't want to tell you, so you have to read the damn article about a restaurant you've never heard of, located in a city you don't live in. Either that, or Jack really has no idea where Columbus is, or what "614" refers to. In my opinion, it's all the above.
