By the way, thanks to everybody who made lunch suggestions. I have been down here this week for the exhibition games and have eaten very well. I've been to Tortilla, Dirty Franks and Hot Chicken Takeover for lunch (going to the food truck food court at Columbus Commons tomorrow) and have had dinner at Gordon Biersch and Tip Top. To the surprise of no one who has read my contributions to this thread, the one day I woke up early enough for breakfast, I went to Milo's.
Speaking of my thoughts on food:
Tortilla - If I had the exact same combo of ingredients on a burrito from Tortilla and Chipotle, I'd probably prefer Chipotle, but the difference is minor and the larger variety of customization options at Tortilla is a plus.
Dirty Franks - Bratwurst was decent. Hot dog was exceptional. Not many places you can get a bacon-wrapped dog with cheese, bbq sauce, and brisket.
Hot Chicken Takeover - had Cold White with waffles and double mac. Incredible but a lot of food (was enough for two meals, and this is coming from a guy who wears 4XT t-shirts). Will probably try warm chicken only next time. Sweet tea was pretty good, as well (most of my relatives are from the South, so my standards are pretty high on this).
Gordon Biersch - Nothing incredible but solid pub food. Will definitely go back.
Tip Top - First off, any place that has RC fountain soda is awesome. Food was good, too.
Schmidt's - The bratwurst may have been the best I have ever tasted (and, living in Cleveland, I have eaten my share of good bratwurst). I'd had their Cream Puff before at a Crew game, but the Buckeye Cream Puff was even better.
Unfortunately, Mikey's Late Night Slice was unable to make it to the food truck food court, so I missed out on that one.
