Diono Olympia Convertible Plus Booster Car Seat

Diono’s Olympia Convertible Plus Booster Car Seat is a perfect blend of safety, comfort, and stylish design. The Safestop harness distributes the force of braking equally across the body rather than concentrating it upon a single point, while the lower height of the Olympia has been shown to provide greater security and safety to children in the event of a crash.

Dave and Buster’s (25735 1st St, Westlake, OH 44145)

We had a chance to experience the Dave and Buster’s in Westlake, Ohio and had a memorable time that neither or nor the wife were likely to forget. We were lucky enough to stop by on a Wednesday (1/2 price games) during the company’s Summer of Games promotion. This ensured that we were able to play a number of Dave and Buster’s newest titles at a fraction of the cost…

Elevation Burger (3365 Washtenaw Avenue, Ann Arbor, MI)

We were in the Detroit area and thought driving the hour or so to the Ann Arbor area would be a good day trip from the Motor City. While in Ann Arbor, we stopped at Elevation Burger on Washtenaw Avenue. We had an experience that was memorable and have found a new chain to hit up whenever we are in that quadrant of Michigan.

Jean “Geno” Sylvain / Genetics By Geno

Genetics By Geno is a bit of a misnomer; the work that Geno has done to improve his body to one of the best in the world is largely due to his own sheer drive and determination. The information that he provides in his gym and online will similarly benefit anyone that is looking to cut down weight, build up strength, and be as healthy as humanely possible.

City Barbeque (Columbus, Ohio)

We visited the City Barbeque in the Polaris area (8491 Sancus Blvd, Columbus, OH) a few days back and had a stellar meal. The company has a number of distinct menu options to ensure that individuals have a meal that will far outstrip the offerings of any other fast-food or sit-down restaurant around.

Bonefish Grill – In + On Bar Bites

Bonefish Grill has added a number of offerings to their menu with their In + On Bar Bites promotion. Taken together, these small plates are the perfect way for an individual (or a party) to taste the wide variety of Bonefish Grille’s specialties, all without breaking the bank. Bonefish’s take on a Moscow Mule, The Mule ($7.5) ties together a strong, assertive ginger element with a more moderate mint element.…

Tocolo Cantina Review

We were able to sit down and experience Tocolo Cantina in Garden City, New York and had a fulfilling experience. The restaurant prides itself in providing a new sheen to Mexican fare, to break customer’s minds from the boring and drab offerings of many local Mexican stops. The restaurant is able to have an expansive menu with prices that are incredibly approachable. Tocolo Cantina’s tacos are where they shine the…

zPizza – 5060 N. High Street, Columbus, Ohio 43214

We were lucky enough to stop by a zPizza location in Columbus, Ohio and ordered the company’s Casablanca pizza. The offering contains mushrooms, artichoke hearts, and ricotta cheese alongside roasted garlic sauce and an additional amount of Parmesan. The restaurant was clean and the wait staff was extremely friendly. We put in our order and were pleasantly surprised to receive it no more than 10 or 15 minutes after finding…

Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is one of the most visible and well known attractions on Lake Erie in Cleveland, Ohio. The Hall of Fame is jam-packed with ephemera from the last century of popular music. While rock musicians are given the lion’s share of attention at the museum, there are antiques, costumes, instruments and a bevy of other items from gospel, rap, and EDM artists. What results…

Outback Steakhouse – Akron, Ohio

We were lucky enough to be invited to the Outback Steakhouse in Akron Ohio. We are pleased to say that the experience that we had at the restaurant was amazing. When we entered it was only a few minute wait before we received our table – the person at the front was extremely hospitable. After we sat down it was only another few brief moments before our waiter for the…

Cyclops Rechargeable Revo 900 LED Hand Held Spotlight

We were able to go camping for the first time in my life a few months ago and everything seemed to be great. The one thing that we did not anticipate was to have a flashlight or other light emitting source. This meant that whenever we went to the bathroom or had to conduct any business between different tents we were quite literally in the dark. Sure, most current generation…

Grand Trunk Uinta 4-Person Tent

Throughout all my youth, I never went on any camping excursions. I was always more of a fan of staying inside and playing on the computer – something that I still enjoy. We went to the Midwest reggae fest a few months ago and required a tent for the extended festival duration. The actual day that we went the weather was incredibly bad – the ground was squishy, the rain…

Eagles Nest Outfitters SingleNest Hammock

A hammock is one of those things that, while not absolutely essential for a camping or hiking trip, makes the trip that much more comfortable. There are a wide array of fabrics and enclosures that are utilized in hammocks, but Eagles Nest Outfitters (ENO) creates hammocks that utilize space-age and other leading edge fabrics for their hammocks. The mounting system that one can purchase for the SingleNest hammock insures rapid…

The Detroit Institute of Arts

The Detroit Institute of Arts is gargantuan; a labyrinthine building that houses some of the world’s greatest treasures. This does not only mean that works from the old masters nor those modern American and European artists, are the balance of what is present here – this means that there are considerable ancient and more recent artifacts that one can spend the better part of a day visiting.

Logan’s Roadhouse – Canton, MI

The overall decor of the Logan’s Roadhouse was one that was brightly lit, while the decor really matched the overall cowboy / western theme. Once we were seated the waitress provided our drinks immediately. The service was incredibly fast with a number of stops by the table to ensure that everything was to our liking. We placed our order and within a few short minutes our appetizer came out. The…

Hotel St. Regis Review

The Hotel St. Regis is a storied hotel in downtown Detroit. The hotel has hosted a number of storied musicians, politicians, and other important persons, and it still cuts a mean figure on West Grand Boulevard. The rooms have a classic dignity to them while providing blazing-fast internet and a solid swath of cable channels. The hotel contains La Musique, a restaurant that provides their own unique take on classic…

Nationwide Hotel and Conference Center Review

The Nationwide Hotel and Conference Center is a lush area, seeming more like an early twentieth-century university than a hotel. This quaint and timeless touch is paralleled by tremendous customer service. I recently visited Nationwide Hotel and Conference Center for leisure and was very impressed.  Perfect for those that are looking to rest and relax at the NHCC, the rooms have the feel of an apartment.

Boston’s The Gourmet Pizza – Columbus, Ohio Review

  The restaurant’s house salad is a great value with its price, serviced very quickly with the correct dressing. Their Ultimate Pepperoni pizza had two types of pepperoni; Boston’s sauce is the perfect blend of sweet and spicy. The pizza was simply one of the finest we have had in the Columbus area. For those wanting a different take on Italian cuisine, the spicy chicken and alfredo contains a great…
