Green Dog Cafe

. Saturday, March 26, 2011 .
That Emmy, she can pick them! Today after the hike we were starving...it was 3PM and we had breakfast at 9AM.

3543 Columbia Parkway, Cincinnati, OH

Love the logo!  A little bit of info I read in a FAQ's sheet...Mary Swortwood has over 25 years experience and started her career at the Greenbriar Resort in White Sulphur Springs, WV (I knew I would like her...a Hillbilly just like me) as an apprentice.  She also has a background in nutrition.  Mary and her partner, Mark Swortwood, started the Brown Dog Cafe and Tinks.  The Brown Dog was named after their chocolate lab.  With so much focus on the environment and healthy food "GREEN"
 is the new Brown.

Wyatt has decided (about 15 minutes before ordering lunch) that he was going to be a vegetarian.  So he ordered a Green Dog Burger.  He ended up not eating it and ordered a hot dog instead.  That is another blog for another day.

Michael read thru the menu of vegan, dairy free and gluten items and decided to order a cheese quesadilla off the children's menu.

Grilled chicken salad...mixed greens, roasted sweet potatoes, caramelized red onions, feta cheese, walnuts and the house vinaigrette

Chihuahua Bowl...black beans, corn salad, organic rice, tomato salsa, manchego fresco, and tortilla chips

It was a fun lunch.  Michael was a little upset with Wyatt because he didn't understand why he wanted to change to be a vegetarian.  I think the place is a little pricey.   They are environmentally conscious. It was nice and clean.  Everyone was friendly and got a kick out of the boys.  Not sure I would go back but I have a feeling that Emmy and Erika will hit it pretty soon...like one day next week.

  1. I love their logo, too. Eating at a pricey cafe with kids can be daunting.
