This blog's main purpose is to serve as an eating journal for a group of friends who grew up together in the Worthington, OH area and now currently reside throughout the Greater Columbus area. But if you're reading this, you're probably not one of us. So let me start with a bit of history and then explain the blog to you in a bit more detail.
The authors of this blog all grew up together and attended the same high school, Worthington Kilbourne in one of the northern suburbs of Columbus, Ohio. Founded in 1803 by James Kilbourne (hence the name of our high school), the suburb has a rich history which we learned about in school, but never did much exploring past that. We were all heavily involved in activities at our high school (whose mascot is a wolf named Lobo, hence the name of the blog), but never got a chance to look past the daily bustle.
After graduation, though we remained close friends, we all spread throughout the county to attend college. It was here that we realized how many hidden gems are located in the cities we went to school in and started wondering what we were missing back home. We were never home for more than a few weeks at a time, but it was around this time that we started exploring more of Worthington, Columbus, and the surrounding areas and found out what we were missing all along!
Fast forward a few years. We are now all in our early to mid twenties and for one reason or another, life has led us back to the Columbus area. We finally have the time and disposable income (with the exception of the poor med student who still subsists on stipends and government loans) to explore more and we decided to start trying more restaurants in the area. Of course, one of the problems we have now is that unless a place is particularly good (or bad!) we don't always remember everything about it and it makes it harder to decide where we want to eat on a given night when we are together.
Enter this blog. The purpose of this blog is to allow us to journal about our experiences and keep track of what we've tried, what was good, what wasn't good, and help guide us in what to try next. Also, it allows any one of us to read where others have been since there are times that we can't all be in the same place at the same time. (Read: the med student is too busy buried under a pile of books in the library) We realized that other might find our reviews interesting, so we are keeping the blog public. Of course we'd appreciate any comments you have about any of your own experiences! To keep the spam down to a minimum, we review all posts before they are posted, but this also ensures that your post is read and you will get a reply should one be warranted!
The main purpose of the blog is to talk about our eating habits, but if we see that a lot of people out side of our circle of friends are reading this, we may just start to add in a few stories here and there so our readers can get to know us better!
Bon Appétit!
