Cumin Indian Restaurant 1025 Polaris Parkway Columbus, OH 43240 – I mourned the loss of The Bayleaf India Bistro near the corner of Polaris and Gemini Parkways. Attempting to visit it during lunch one day, we discovered it was closed but a sign directed us to the Cumin Indian Restaurant off of Sancus near Fifth Third Bank. Curious and even hungrier, we headed over there. We were delighted to find an Indian Buffet with a great selection of dishes to choose from, naan served to your table, and chai brought without hesitation. Upon visiting it a few times more, we learned that the Cumin Indian Restaurant would be taking over the Bayleaf’s location. As of the end of January 2011, they had. The Sancus location is now strictly vegetarian which I hope to try soon.

Plantain Cafe 77 E. Gay Street, Columbus, OH 43215 – A trip to El Arepazo Latin Grill and its delicious offerings was sidetracked by the Plantain Cafe. The Plantain Cafe was not nearly as crowded as El Arepazo and after the meal I found that very surprising. I tried the “old clothes” or Ropa Vieja sandwich – “tender shredded flank steak slowly cooked in wine and tomato sauce with thinly sliced onions and green peppers. It was served with plantain chips which were drizzled with lime juice (I believe). A friend had the Masitas de Pollo which are morsels of chicken marinated in lime and garlic, fried and garnished with cilantro served with rice and beans and sweet plantains. He lamented missing out on El Arepazo and its South American dishes until he got a few bites into his Masitas de Pollo. On our way out, we stumbled upon Cafe Sazon off of High Street which may be our next downtown dining destination.

Angry Baker Bakery – 891 Oak St., Columbus, OH 43205 – After only getting a sandwich at Plantain Cafe (as planned), I had saved some room for the Angry Baker as recommended by my Olde Towne Easte friendses. Apparently, the baker was angry as we noticed that she had sawed through her fingernail and part of her finger with a serrated knife. Her anger must have been shortlived as she paid her injury little attention and kept right on baking. I’ve always enjoyed Olde Towne and it’s great to see new businesses opening there. Hey, and there are no meters on Oak Street so parking (at least around lunch time) is no problem – contrast this with the hell that is the Short North. We sampled a muffin, eclair and a couple cookies which cinched a return trip and noted that plans were underway for expanded seating and dining. Can’t wait to return.вик Сувенири Картини
