Melt Bar and Grilled: Cleveland

Amber badly backlit with the MELT logo in the background
On a road trip to Cleveland I thought I would give Guy Fieri recommendation Melt a chance.  While I did not see the exact episode that featured this Cleveland Grilled Cheese house, I managed to pull down just enough data to find the address of the western most outpost of this string of restaurants.

StringGirl, Amber, and the Menu
 The menus in this place are pasted to the back of old LP jackets, immediately I knew this was my kind of place. But the choices were daunting. With a menu stacked high with nothing but grilled cheese of all sorts I was unsure of where to start. While Guy was here he tried the Parmagedon (?) which is a grilled cheese stacked with two homemade pierogi.  But in the end I went for the featured sandwich of the week,Vietnamese Grilled Pork.

 This sandwich came stacked high with Savory grilled pork that was not half bad in the Vietnamese BanMi style. What I always have liked about Vietnamese food was present in this sandwich. Savory and sweet meat that has been well marinated in something sweet, salty, sour, and spicy. Topped with fresh crunchy veggies like cucumber, fresh carrots, cilantro, and basil. Put all those tastes into a Grilled Cheese and here you are! Fantastic. Served with fresh made fries and this sandwich was just what I needed to be able to get home after a long few days in Cleveland.



Here is a lightly broken panorama of the restaurant

So if you are ever in Cleveland and needing some good homecooking and comfort food. Mosey on over to the Melt Bar and Grilled. I can't recommend it any more highly, something there for anyone and everyone.

Moonrise Kingdom, a cozy craft beer bar in Tokyo-Shinjuku

Craft Brewing is not what normally comes to mind when people ask about Japan. They'll ask if you like raw fish (there is more to Japanese cuisine than Sashimi or Sushi), or they'll comment about Sake (there is more than just rice wine in Japan); but if you look, you will definitely find some. Our recent trip to Tokyo, this April just after the Sakura had been swept away by rain :-( we were able to find a perfectly suitable refuge for the Craft Beer Lover.  Moonrise Kingdom(via their Instagram) StringGrrl with one of the NEIPA/Hazy IPA on tap from Japanese Craft Breweries As a treat, the owners shared an American Milk Stout from Left Hand Brewing out of Colorado Local ExPat who gave up their stool to make room for StringGrrl and Kam Carryout beer from Kyoto Brewing Company, Vertere

everything you wanted to know about my accident but I wasn't ready to share  (u pdated 28th February. Done, gone home, Scroll to see more ) Here's the lowdown since curiosity abounds: 1) NO, I didn't have a skiing accident. I resent the implication. I owned that fucking Hill . (Family Friendly video) 2) It was a sled 🛷 . It's not an extreme sport. It's called a Rodelbahn (toboggan road) and is considered fun for the whole family. Sebastian supplied the sleds/toboggans, and after a full morning on the mountain skiing. We planned to use the few remaining hours of lift access to run the Rodelbahn. Totally reasonable. 3) The run isn't like a luge or bobsled but a trail down reasonable slopes (switchbacks adjacent to a green dot, blue square ski run) but maybe a bit narrower. Rodelbahn at Nauders 4) I think I over-steered at the exact wrong time and was catapulted into the trees, and down a steep slope, bounced off many trees, broke a few d...
