MAKE IT A COMBO

Hump day is a day away, which means it’s almost time for Lunch for the Lawn at Columbus Commons. On Wednesdays this summer you may have a hard time choosing from all the vendors at the Food Cart, Food Court, but what about the rest of the week?

Well, Lori and Kevin Ames have been filling hungry bellies of office workers in one of their three restaurants on Capitol Square for quite a while, and now they’ve got what you’re craving at the Commons – all week long. Check out this video to see their new digs take shape.


Inside 43215: Show Your Love

LOVE ‘EM UP

(to cast your vote immediately, click here.  if you want to learn more about the campaign, read on…)

Time flies: it’s been a full year since DowntownColumbus.com’s Show Your Love project launched.  Back in 2009, six local eateries joined in a good natured contest to become Downtown’s Official Sweetheart.

The competition was brutal.  The love was intense.  Ultimately, Jack’s Diner emerged as number one.

But it can be number one for only one year.  Jack’s reign has ended.  Although we still love the joint, it’s time to find 2010’s Official Sweetheart.

Just like last year, we’ve sweetened the deal for the voting public.  Cast a ballot for your favorite eatery and you’re automatically registered for a set of gift certificates from all the competitors: Barrio Tapas Lounge; Burgers Dogs and Fries; Caffe Daniela; Dirty Frank’s Hot Dog Palace; J. Gumbo’s; and Plantain Cafe.  Vote early and vote often.

(Sigh)… and it seemed like just yesterday when Jack’s claimed its award.

EDITOR’S NOTE: It was yesterday.  SOMEBODY kept hoarding Jack’s award plaque in our office.  Oops.
