    The Fat Man tries to find hidden gems, holes in the walls, or any small mom-and-pop establishment…read morewith good food. While traveling in northern Kentucky, he stumbled upon one of these places, The Farmstand Market & Cafe. Farmstand offers comfort food with a farm-to-table focus served in a cozy space with a bar and attached market. We started with the Goetta Hanky Panky Dip. This was made with cheesy goetta, bagel chips, pumpernickel bread, and light rye served in a cast iron skillet. The dip had a good sausage flavor with salt and some light spice while being cheesy, creamy, and full of flavor. The bagel chips were very crispy but were not served warm. The pumpernickel and rye were dry. Each complimented the dip, adding texture to the bite. My wife had the Reuben Sandwich. This sandwich came with sliced corned beef, homemade Thousand Island, pickled pig sauerkraut, and Swiss cheese on light rye with bacon ranch pasta salad. The pasta salad was cooked spot on while also being creamy. The bacon added crunch and saltiness to the salad. The rye had a great toast, and the Thousand Island was tangy and creamy. The pastrami was dry but had a good salty flavor. The sauerkraut was crunchy and had a good sour flavor cutting through the salty meat and the sweet dressing. The cheese was gooey and nutty and added flavor to each bite. I sampled the French dip sandwich and Mulligatawny soup. This was prepared with a sliced top round with provolone on a French roll. The soup was prepared with rice, chicken, carrots, onions, celery, lentils and spices. The chicken was very tender, the rice was cooked well, and the vegetables added texture to the rice. The soup was flavorful, had a wonderful aroma, and had a good salt content. The top round was thin and offered good flavor and chew. The roll was fresh and had a good chew paired with the ooey and gooey cheese with an excellent buttery flavor. The au jus had good flavor but was slightly salty, which overpowered it. Farmstand offers grilled cheeses, hot sandwiches, burgers, salads, appetizers, soups and main entrees. They also serve beer and have a full bar. The servers were pleasant and knowledgeable. The Fat Man says that The Farmstand Market & Cafe is Fat Man Approved with 1 chin.

The real showstopper was the creamy berry-lemon cake we split for dessert. A touch of lemon in a white cake and loaded with yummy berries, served with a side of whipped cream. It was delicious!

    Stopped by this gem while driving through the Westwood. The baklava latte and matcha were amazing!…read moreI am not a sweet drink fan and the baklava flavor provided flavor without a ton of sweetness! I could actually taste the quality of the matcha and espresso in each drink! Definitely coming by here again next time I am on the west side!

    I came to the Westend in Cincinnati for a class that was being held at the Fable Cafe. I think…read morethere were about 10 of us there for a calligraphy class that was being held in the back of the cafe. I ordered a hot chai tea latte, something I love to try anytime that it is on the menu. I have tried a lot of them, some good, some bad. This chai was a good one, not overly spicy on this one but a good flavor profile. Creamy finish on the top and because I was having it in-store I got it in a glass cup and I love that! The gals that took my order and then made my chai latte were not messing around, they were quick which was good because I was running slightly behind and only had a few minutes until class started. It was clean in the coffee shop aside from where we tracked in the rain on the wood floors. Several tables to sit at or you could just grab your cup to go. Looks like they had a few choices of baked goods you could also order but I did not try any on this occasion. I would stop here again if in Westend.
