The Daily Nibble

Chagrin Falls, a quaint town with beautiful stores, elegant restaurants, and gorgeous water falls. Lola’s Bistro is located in the heart of it all.

Lola’s Bistro is a place I will be going back to. The French cuisine was magnificent, and the decor was beautifully done. The restaurant is light and comforting, with comfortable chairs and plush coaches. The light interior with the wallpaper and lamps were very aesthetically pleasing and were done exceptionally well.

Not only was the decor amazing, but the food was even better. We started off our meal with the bread and butter. The butter had a sheet over it with a print of a dog. It was adorable.

The bread was light, crispy, and airy, and absolutely perfect. The butter added to the delightful flavor.

For the entree I decided to get the Steak Frites. The steak was cooked exactly how I wanted it. The sauce on the steak was a lime sauce and it was delightful. It added a wonderful flavor to it. And the fries, which are cooked in beef tallow, were crispy and light and paired perfectly with the sauce they gave. The steak frites are a must have.

If you are ever looking for a delicious, aesthetically pleasing restaurant go to Lola’s Bistro. You will not be disappointed.

Heck’s Cafe is a place that everyone needs to go to. Whether you go on Sunday for their famous brunch, or a Tuesday night for their amazing burgers and fries. The light atmosphere, with wide windows and light interior adds a happy, airy vibe to the restaurant. The modern lights, the large plants, and the candles on the table add a very aesthetic touch.

If you stop by Heck’s I recommend sitting inside the sun room. It is filled with lots and lots of light. Glass garage doors and windows on every wall and side. This room brightens not only your food, but your day. Heck’s never fails to satisfy.

Brunch on Sundays has become more and more popular. People go after church, they go to meet a friend, or they go after they wake up to enjoy a slow morning. Brunch is the perfect time for breakfast lovers and lunch lovers to come together and be able to pick between lunch and breakfast without anyone batting an eye.

Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. The endless sweet and the salty options always satisfies my cravings.

This morning I was craving a salty meal. I decided to get the Ohio City Breakfast, a standard meal with eggs, toast, potatoes, sausage or bacon, and fruit. This meal was delicious. The potatoes were perfectly crispy, with a deliciously non-overpowering salty taste. The sourdough toast was toasted to perfection. Crispy edges, but not burnt. And, the eggs cooked perfectly, not dried out, but not too wet.

The food here is delicious and the environment is airy and comforting. If you’re free on a Sunday after church or wondering where to meet a friend, stop at Heck’s for their amazing brunch. Or on a Tuesday night, if you are wondering where to go with your family for a nice meal, head over to Heck’s for their delicious burgers and perfectly crispy fries.

The H Orlando brings an exquisite dining experience to the land of Disney. From the beautiful fun decor, to the tasty food, this restaurant has everything you need.

The comfy coaches and stylish chairs add to the whole vibe and feel of the restaurant. The midcentury modern design creates a comfortable, attractive environment.

Not only did the decor stand out, but kindness emanated from all of the staff. As soon as you walk into the low-lit dining room you are hit with smiles from the front stand. They were attentive, caring, and made sure that we always had what we needed.

To start our meal we got the crab legs. They were buttery and flavorful, and exactly what we wanted. I decided to get the Bucatini Bolognese, which was a pasta with red meat sauce that had wagyu chuck, dry aged ribeye, angus tenderloin, crispy bresaola, and fresh basil. This was absolutely amazing. The flavors were paired perfectly together, and the meats were tender and flavorful. This is a pasta I could eat over and over. The Tomahawk Steak was another staple in this meal. It was tender, juicy, and packed with delicious flavor. Their steak is a must-have.

This restaurant is everything and more. The atmosphere, the staff, the food, everything is just perfect. If you’re ever in Orlando stop by and try this amazing restaurant.

This beautifully decorated restaurant is filled with many people and lots of smiling faces. From the bar in the middle of the large room to the small two-person tables, the love for the restaurant is evident. The large chandeliers, high ceilings, and big wall filled with wineglasses give a chic, aesthetic feel to the environment.

This restaurant is different than any I have been to. There is a QR code on your table and you order from your phone, which makes it concise and altogether easy. You can order desert from your table as well, or you can go up to the desert counter, look at all the options and order from there. Which, is what I did. I enjoyed being able to look at all the desert options and then make my choice.

Not only is the decor exceptional, but the food is superb. To start out, the truffle fries are thick wedge-cut potatoes that are perfectly crispy, and paired with a sauce that gives the potato flavor an even better taste. If you visit, I recommend these flavorful truffle fries. For the main course, their well known pizza is light and airy, and it has the perfectly cooked, crunchy crust. The cheese on this pizza wasn’t too light, no was it too much. Their pasta is exceptional as well. The Rigatoni A La Vodka, while very salty, was a great pasta. The pasta paired with the sauce, the bacon, and the salmon was very good. To end the meal we got dessert. The strawberry cheesecake was delectable, light and very tasteful. It filled my stomach, but it made my heart full. If you have the chance stop at this delightful restaurant!

Oberlin, a college town filled with love, history, and good food has become a staple in many people’s lives. The atmosphere and environment appreciates culture and food that feeds the heart.

The Feve, a delicious American pub and grill known for its crispy, light tater tots and its deliciously juicy burgers has become a regular place in my life. The historic building with the beautiful brick and wide windows brings a cozy, warm feel to the cold winter we are currently in. The low lighting adds a feeling of intimacy to the restaurant. And, the locally painted art for sale on the walls shows what is behind this restaurant. And that is love for the community, and of  course love for food. The food not only filled my stomach, but it filled my heart. If you are looking for a locally owned delicious restaurant, The Feve is exactly where you want to be. 

A staple in the heart of Cleveland, the Bourbon Street Barrel Room. This authentic Cajun Creole inspired restaurant transported me to the streets in New Orleans filled with vibrant decor, tasty food, and lively music. Walking into the restaurant the first floor is filled with low lit lighting and a fun opening to the second floor. The bar is filled with smiling people and customers laughing. You can see the heart for the lovely culture and the delightful food. 

We were seated upstairs, overlooking the street from the large, antique french doors. 

We started off our meals with alligator bites, sweet potato fries, and the famous hush puppies. The alligator bites were impeccable paired with the hot sauce. They were small, but fried perfectly and had a tangy taste with the hot sauce. The sweet potato fries (one of my favorites), were thinly sliced and fried to golden brown. Our last appetizer, the hush puppies were amazing. The fried golden brown crust was the perfect crunch and the inside was warm and to die for. The hush puppies are a staple no one can skip. 

For the main course I was in between the Gumbo and the Jambalaya. I went with the Jambalaya, and I was very glad. The rice was cooked to perfection with the sausage and chicken. The rice was the perfect wet texture, and added to the juicy tender chicken, and the tangy sausage. This dish was delightful, authentic, and flavorful. 

If you are in Cleveland I recommend you stop at this amazing restaurant and be transported to the streets of New Orleans. The food is amazing, the staff is lovely, and the decor is lively. Who knew Cleveland was the new New Orleans?
