I went to Ohio State University mostly because of the fabulous football team. Oh yeah, and they had a great business school, too. I visited my old alma mater this past week on Thanksgiving Day with my aspiring rock star son. OSU is still glorious, but the highlight of our day was our delicious meal at Lindey's in German Village. I've eaten there a few times and had forgotten how fabulous the food and the atmosphere is. The tight cobblestone streets, that lead to this almost hidden gem of Columbus, passes hundred year old houses graced with exteriors that just scream, I AM GORGEOUS INSIDE AND OUT. (I love houses....that's why I sell real estate.) But at Lindeys, the white crisp table cloths, the massive and impressive bar, the chic crowd and the scrumptious food cheered up an otherwise gloomy day. My son just doesn't like the traditional fixin's and there was nothing traditional about our meal. I did fall back to having turkey, but Alex ordered an amazing pasta, and his lovely young love ordered a gorgonzola incrusted steak that was just too yummy. Our apetizer was brie with mango chutney...what can I say but yummmm. And the Lobster bisque is the best I've ever tasted. Thanksgiving was different this year but amazing.



If you get the chance try Lindeys. I am a food snob and I loved it. I thought it was fabulous. Bon apetite'.
