Appetizers - pretty yummy WTF roll - 9/10 had dried Wagyu which made it more savory, rice is chewy (in between sushi rice and sticky rice) could be a little less rice; the potato threads were crispy and yum Wagyu Perogi - 7.5/10 was good, but not as meat focused as I was hoping, filling was very soft but I like the pasta dough (had some chew) Entrees were cooked well, I think the flavors were straightforward and not too complex. Chicken Wellington - the pastry dough was as buttery as biscuits. Sauce had dates and the dish was on the sweeter side (I prefer more savory entrees so this was not my taste) My partner ordered this and he loved it Miso Black Cod Fish was done well and not dry. Broth was a bit one dimensional to me. I thought my soba noodles were gonna be the brown ones but they were thicker like ramen white noodles The herbs really captured the pho broth well. I've noticed the effort put into the menu was done really well. I feel like with food fusion, I noticed a lot of things do end up getting misspelled but I noticed the accent and spelling were all correct on the menu. Liz was our server and she was very knowledgeable on the menu also!

While the restaurant is known for its upscale American food and extensive bourbon selection, the Easter buffet shifts the focus to a high-end spread.

So apparently you can rent the facility prior to them opening at 10pm. So the party was from 6-10. You have access to the entire place and the outside area as well. You can also cater in your own food, so it's not like you have to use their contacts, but it does have to be catered, you can't bring in homemade food. You can also bring in a DJ. This particular party had a cash bar but you can make arrangements for it to be an open bar if you would like. The most exciting thing is you only have to have I think a $400 liquor minimum. Well if you have a decent crowd, I'm sure that's pretty easy. I also wasn't aware that they actually have a parking lot for your guests as well.

I'll be honest. I can barely think about Servants at Work, often called SAWs for short, without…read moregetting tears in my eyes. As a longtime wheelchair user myself, I'm acutely aware of just how inaccessible life can be. I'm fortunate. I'm still very able to live an active life despite a myriad of health issues. I'm very aware that others aren't quite so fortunate. SAWs is an Indianapolis-based non-profit faith-based organization dedicated to "providing freedom to people with permanent disabilities in low-income households through the construction of wheelchair ramps." The ramps always meet ADA requirements and very often are the difference between someone being able to access the community and being stuck at home. In case you're unaware, wheelchair ramps, or at least properly constructed wheelchair ramps, aren't always easy and are frequently unaffordable for those on a limited or fixed income. While there's occasionally government funding to assist, for example my own ramp at my home came via Vocational Rehabilitation, very often these programs are limited, have long waiting lists, and/or have strict qualifying guidelines. A program like Servants at Work, which is entirely devoted to building ramps, makes all the difference in the world. These are good people doing amazing things. I was familiar with SAWs long before I joined my current church, Second Presbyterian Church, a longtime sponsor and one of the groups involved in the founding of SAWs. SAWs has built ramps for more than one of my friends. They largely use volunteer crews, often from area faith communities, and the work always meets ADA guidelines. While teams are often faith-based, it's certainly not an absolute with organizations such as Elevance Health, Erie Insurance, Old National Bank, Rehab Medical, Subaru, and Salesforce all getting involved. Getting involved is usually a combination of financial support and actually working on the ramps. SAWs has now grown to the point of having hubs statewide and even affiliates in Virginia, Arizona, and Nevada. Rik Hagarty, a Second Presbyterian Church member, founded SAWs and it remains a lean organization with four paid staff (Executive Director, Program Development Manager, Accountant, and Operations Manager). Otherwise, everything happens because of the sponsors and volunteers. This is an amazing group doing amazing work for individuals with disabilities by helping to ensure they can live life as independently as possible and that they have better access to their community. In 2021, SAWs celebrated their 3,000th ramp build!

Whether you want to do something active with people you know or you're new in town and looking to…read moremake friends (or you're single and you'd like to meet someone good looking....wink, wink), CCA is a blast. They have about 20 different sports leagues from dodgeball to kickball to bowling that run throughout the year. After the game, they have a sponsor bar where you can meet with your team and take advantage of drink specials. One of the kickball umps is an arrogant show-off who plays favorites in order to recruit players for his own kickball team....Other than him, CCA rules though. The owner is a great guy who has done a wonderful job starting the league from scratch and making it the predominant recreational league in town. I highly recommend CCA.

My review is for the CCA soccer leagues, specifically played at the Orchard School fields. The…read moreleague is $65 a person with 6 weeks of regular season games and 1-2 weeks of playoffs. Let me lay out some numbers for you before I explain what happened. There is a requirement of 12 players per team, which is at least $780 per team. I know our team had 4 additional players and so did others. There were 10 teams. That is a minimum of $7,800 for the required 12 per team, so lets stay there were about 10 additional players. This brings the total to $8,450 in fees to CCA. Two hours of games on two fields for 8 weeks which is only 16 hours of field use and 64 hours of ref time (if your game actually has the two required refs). Starting to wonder "why so expensive" yet? Now listen to my experience. The fields weren't mowed/lined until the 3rd week of play. Most of our games only had one referee when they are suppose to provide two. They don't provide game balls and every game we played with a flat or lopsided ball. There was a CCA rep at the first game to take our picture and then never again. The t-shirts have sponsors on them, so are virtually free of cost. The fields don't have lights on them so if you have the later game, you can't see the last 10 mins of the game. They extended the league two weeks due to too many teams/bye weeks, but didn't tell anyone, so hopefully your whole team is available those two weeks when the league was suppose to be over already but they wanted to make extra money. Have you figured out what i'm paying $65 for? Because I can't figure it out. There are so many better leagues out there. Find them and don't look back. I know that's what I'm doing. CCA is unorganized and overpriced.

Dotted Line Divas was started by an incredible woman who, while going through a hard time a few…read moreyears ago, spent every Saturday driving to local pantries to collect items for her family. She quickly realized that most food pantries had almost no personal hygiene or home items necessary to sustain a family. She redirected her attention to couponing and became incredibly good at it. She now uses her extreme couponing skills to serve 100+ families each month. She opened a personal care pantry that offers the following: shampoo, conditioner, body wash, razors, toothbrushes, toothpaste, feminine care items, diapers, wipes, toilet paper, home cleaning supplies, detergent, deodorant, books and more. This pantry is located in the new Mercy Road church off of 96th and Michigan Road and is open for "pantry day" every third Saturday of the month from 10am-12pm. Families can register beforehand or show up and fill out paperwork. Volunteers will then call a family up, take them through the pantry and ask if there's anything our team can be praying for. If there are extra items in the pantry from 12pm-1pm, people who need it can pay $1 or $2 to snag additional items. There needs to be ideally 20 volunteers to make this nonprofit possible every third Saturday. Bonus points if you can speak Spanish or Burmese. Please sign up on their website sign up link before showing up to volunteer so they know you're coming. If you have a few extra hours, it'll mean the world to the families and you'll meet incredibly kind people that you'll feel honored to help! Everyone is so kind and sweet. I even learned a ton of Spanish thanks to the patient people who taught me while we shopped!
