    ^Oh, that looks wonderful. I haven't had meals like that since I visited NYC in '02 and Quebec City in '03. C'est vachement.

    I'm definitely a foodie, and an adventurous one.

North of there on Cleveland Ave are places with Nigerian, Somalian, Brazilian, more Mexican, BBQ, and Greek. Up the rd a minute is Filipino, and a few minutes east is amazing baklava (with 2 comic stores near the baklava). Also, we have a world class French place with a deep wine cellar:

    What is the name of the place with the baklava? My wife loves it, and the place in Columbus we used to go to for Greek food closed a year or so back and we have been looking for a new place to try when we go over to Columbus (we may make Mego Meet but we are definitely doing Origins Game Fair at the Convention center a couple weeks afterwards. Which shops, sadly I probably know the comic shop option in Columbus better than the food choices.

    It always amused/depressed me that in Wheeling, the local "dance" club and dog track / casino are across the street from the HS football stadium.

    Yeah, and the place is always busy. They have stuff that isn't found in other stores, probably more so now that TRU is going away. The bulk wall is always a winner for us.

    I have been to your local Lego Store, so I know my daughter is good if the whole family comes.
