Roll Call: Ohio (OATW adjacent) and localized ice cream debates (Part 1)

LCC still has the best value membership for someone within reasonable driving distance to the club. If you’re living in the suburbs it’s still a little haul to get into Cincinnati. They are going under a 4 year renovation right now that is going to freshen the course and change it significantly.

When there are outside events on the course you can reciprocate to Mak or Clovernook for just a cart fee. If there’s no event, you can still play but it’s full rack rate.

That course needs it. I am not a fan at all.

Anyone interested in playing Kinsale on Sunday at a reduced guest fee?

Damn. I already have a tee time with some friends for Sunday. We will play together, one day!

For the young uns - get yourself in the mix for an agronomy internship at TPC River’s Bend (located between Cincinnati and Dayton).

Not sure if people have seen this before, but this is a cool read for anyone interested in a little history of the Denison Golf Course. It’s some stories told by a guy who was a caddie as a kid when the course opened. http://static.squarespace.com/static/5054b15de4b02b42cb2ebd87/5054b1c0e4b02aa16c339410/5054b1c0e4b02aa16c33945f/1339882017767/

Columbus folks, give me a spot to get a good meal tomorrow night. Staying by campus, but I’m not opposed to taking an Uber somewhere for a good place to eat.

What kind of meal are you looking for? LOTS to choose from but need to know what you are looking for.

Best cocktails/food - Watershed Kitchen
Best “nice”place to get a steak dinner - Lindeys
Iconic German Columbus food - Schmidt’s (overrated but the only place everyone recommends that’s Columbus famous)

Besides all that - @Rmbship recommends - old bag of nails pub on tremont rd in UA. Local pub Chain with burgers beer and sports on tv.

There’s plenty more that’s to get you started.

I’m open to anything. I guess maybe a steak, or a nice Italian place? But I’m willing to try just about anything

Tony’s in the Brewery District for Italian

If you’re staying close to campus - tommys pizza is the best for Columbus Pizza

Thinking hard about it - since you’re a young GUI - you might like watershed better than lindeys. If you like cocktails. Lindeys is fancy but old fancy, but good steaks.

@JohnnyPanton is Probably right, Tony’s is supposed to be a good local Italian.

Sounds like you’re looking for a nice place, but if at any point you’re looking for a good sandwich, I’m a big fan of Katzinger’s over in German Village.

My wife and I used to live two blocks from Lindey’s in German Village. You can’t go wrong with dinner there either.

My three best friends from college all lived together on City Park right after we graduated. I visited them once a month during law school. I love German Village.

We loved living in GV, except the winters with those cobblestone streets could be tough. But it was a great neighborhood.

Basi Italia is my favorite italian.
And I’ve had some great steaks at Black Point.

New to the refuge, and like @Randy I grew up spending a lot of time at Little Miami and Indian Valley (RIP). Cincinnati has a good lineup as far as muni’s go. Now that my daughter is getting older I would love to find a league somewhere nearby next season.

Is Indian Valley the name of the course that used to be across the street from LM?
