By Staff of Como Whine and Dine Blog
I still can’t understand why Coley’s hasn’t caught on. The place has consistenly delivered good food at reasonable prices. Friday night was no exception. I ordered the hoisin pork chops. I can’t remember ever ordering pork at a restaurant before but the description lured me to it.
We started [...]

Wait, whats that? You can’t rush off to Louisiana for the weekend? Well not to worry, there’s still plenty going on in Columbia for the Gras. The Internet, [...]

by Beth Hoag
Despite the cold weather, I found myself really looking for some good ice cream. However, since my New Year’s Resolution involves trying to eat a little better I searched Columbia for a lower calorie alternative. I found exactly what I was looking for with Columbia’s new own frozen yogurt bar, YogoLuv.

by Gwen Ragno
After many, many failed attempts to eat at Café Berlin (map) over the past year, I was finally able to get there while it was open and have a meal. The hours are a little odd, and on one visit the kitchen actually closed for unexplained reasons minutes before I got there. So, [...]

by Erin Riley
At the beginning of this article, I thought it would be easy to write. Like any caffeine addict, I need to have my daily energizer in the morning to get through the day (more like two or three cups of coffee). I set out to find the best coffeehouse in Columbia. It seemed [...]

First it was the pumpkin ale, which just emptied out moments before. Then it was the watermelon salad, which I mostly just ordered for the sake of it [...]

Posted on 30 September, 2009

by Alex Goff
I set out on a mission, and when I began, I had no idea how difficult it would be. Trying to decide which restaurant sells the best hummus in Columbia should be an easy task. Just decide which one tastes the best, right? Wrong. Who would have thought that a food that is [...]

by Alex Goff
What: Geisha Sushi
Where: 804 E. Broadway
I will admit it from the beginning: I am certainly no sushi expert. However, I really do enjoy going out for sushi occasionally, and was really excited when I heard that a new sushi restaurant would be opening on Broadway downtown. The first chance I got, I made [...]
