Festiva

We decided to go on a diet following the State Fair. It didn’t work.

We’ve decided everything needs to be doused in Trap Buttah.

Spice up your summer cookouts with these zesty starters.

“A lot of times people just want comfort, and tacos bring a lot of comfort.”

Chef Braedon Kellner is now co-owner of Tinker Street with Tom Main.

Fried mac & cheese bites on a burger, you have our attention.

George Munoz, formerly of La Chinita Poblana, is taking over at Festiva. Founders Peter George and Tom Main to remain minority owners.

The dishes (and drinks, to be sure) that got us through 2017.

Salt on Mass (505 Mass Ave., 317-638-6565) beautifully plates their Tuna Poke: tuna, avocado, caramel soy sauce, sesame seed, scallion, spicy mayo, and wonton […]

A to-go box of biggie-size doughnuts from A Taste of Amish (62 N. 1st St., Zionsville, 317-800-2500), including toffee-topped crunch, berry-filled, peanut butter-filled, and cinnamon-caramel doughnuts.   Public Greens (900 E 64th St., 317-964-0865), with an ever-changing preparation to top toast: spinach-ramp pesto, runny egg, and togarashi, which pairs well with the spring-bean-and-vegetable soup.   […]

Fruit as dessert has been redeemed.

Festiva gets sweet, and Tinker Street adopts a Dutch baby.

Chicken pozole, tacos al pastor, and short ribs demonstrate the kitchen’s range, from authenticity to innovation.

Plenty of new Mexican options, and openings from City Market to Fishers.
