Smoked kielbasa as an appetizer on the menu? Heck yeah, I'm here for it. And you know what? The…read moresmoked kielbasa was even better than I was hoping it would be. It came with three different sauces: beer-infused mustard, tangy barbecue and creamy horseradish. I could have just sat here and ate charred pork and drank beer and I would have been happy. We also got a Caesar salad, which was OK but would have been a bit better if it came dressed -- the dressing came on the side. The wedge salad was good but was less of a wedge and more of a regular salad. Fenwick Farms has a kids menu, which features things like cheeseburgers, buttered noodles, chicken strips and other kid-friendly foods. Each kids meal comes with a side and a dessert (ice cream sundae), although we didn't get our ice cream, but it was fine because my kids didn't need anymore sugar that day. Speaking of kids: They have free arcade games to play! My kids played Pac-Man and NBA Jam while we waited for our food. The Fenwick Farms Brewing Co. beer is made right here at the brewery, and this is the first and only craft brewery in Rensselaer. They have 30 different beers on tap (most their own, some guest beers), and they offer flights. Indiana knows how to do craft beer, and FFBC is another great example of great beer.

Found this pizza place in an unexpected area. It certainly doesn't look like anywhere you would…read moreexpect it to be as good. Pizza Di Farfalla is located in the back of a coffee shop in New Lenox. A kind of pretty strange setup but it's apparently popular enough. The prices are pretty crazy even for those artisan types of pizzas. Coming in here the first time it was confusing. It's actually in the same location as Gost Coffee Roasters. They usually have a sandwich board out front when they're open so just go in there. Go around to the back. There's a counter to order at and more seating. It's about $12 for the Garlic Knots. We got these and they were great for sharing. Bad thing is these are often sold out. That's no surprise because these are by far the cheapest thing. It's $20 or more for a pizza. These are just regular sized pizzas. Crazy prices to be honest. They may be good but it's way too much for this. Great pizzas as long as you can get past the high prices and running out of so many ingredients and items. It's closed Mondays and Tuesdays. They have pretty limited menu and they still run out of whatever.

Pizza Di Farfalla has been getting a lot of hype, so we had to see what the buzz was about. It's…read morelocated inside Ghost Coffee--our favorite coffee shop in New Lenox--so right away the vibe is fun, light, and a little unexpected. (And yes, we obviously grabbed coffee too. It's impossible to step foot in Ghost without one of their top-tier drinks.) For food, we ordered the garlic knots and The Cade pizza (garlic, sausage, pepperoni, jalapeños). I added a side of Mike's Hot Honey for a sweet kick--not that it was necessary with the jalapeños, but it worked. The garlic knots were delicious, generously portioned, and a perfect warm-up. The pizza itself was beautifully presented and tasted just as good as it looked. One thing to note: this isn't your typical greasy, grab-a-slice type of spot. Farfalla leans into the fine dining side of pizza--brick-ovened, elevated, and full of flavor. It's not where I'd go to pick up a stack of pies for a family party after a long day, but it's absolutely where I'd go for a date night or a cozy movie night at home. I'll definitely be back--because apparently coffee and pizza is my new weird (and wonderful) combo.
