Behold, the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile in all its wiener-wonderment! There are currently eight Wienermobiles gallivanting across county commandeered by Hotdoggers passing out Wienerwhistles to wiener fanatics. The Wienermobile made a stop at the NHL All Star Fan Festival in Columbus. What's the connection between hockey and wieners? Well, Oscar Mayer is owned by Kraft and Kraft has a promotion called Hockeyville in which communities compete to demonstrate their commitment to the sport of ice hockey. The winning community gets a cash prize dedicated to upgrading their local home arena, as well as host an NHL preseason game.

"The room decor with its Ohio State University theme is fun, but, typical of small, urban hotels, the room was small, with little room to open our suitcases. The staff was pleasant and helpful.

Italian Village
When the first restaurant on my list was closed, we moved on to another one and that’s how we discovered Ambrose amd Eve in downtown Columbus. I am so glad that we ended up eating here because it was wonderful. Great, playful takes on comfort foods, really amazing server, warm, inviting space. Fun stuff like this version of “Ants on a log” - burrata with nigella seeds, braised celery and toasts with truffle butter #delicious #columbus
