AEP to begin work Monday on Lane Ave. By CHRIS BOURNEA ThisWeek Community Newspapers Upper Arlington city officials encourage residents to exercise caution when construction begins on Lane Avenue this month on a new American Electric Power underground utility line. AEP representatives and city officials discussed details of the project at a public meeting Monday night at the city’s Municipal Services Center. AEP’s current plan is to start construction as early as Jan. 17, beginning at Northwest Boulevard and working west to River-

side Drive. One lane of traffic in each direction will be maintained until the operation reaches Asbury Drive. While construction is in progress from AsJoe bury to Riverside, Valentino Lane will be closed to through traffic, but open to local traffic on Asbury Drive from the east. This section of the project is anticipated to be complete by the end of April.

Once the western portion of the project is finished, the contractor will return to Northwest Boulevard and work on the east, with one lane of traffic maintained in each direction. This section of the project should be completed by the end of May. About 30 residents attended Monday night’s meeting, and some expressed concerns about drivers speeding along Lane Avenue and cutting through surrounding streets to avoid congestion.

Tree of Life drops state action against city, files federal lawsuit By MICHAEL J. MAURER ThisWeek Community Newspapers A dispute between the city of Upper Arlington and the Tree of Life Christian School has moved into federal court following a contentious year of proceedings. It began when Tree of Life expressed interest in purchasing the former AOL site on Henderson Road and consolidating its Columbus area students at a new campus there. It sought and was denied a conditional use permit from the city to do so. The city has long viewed the AOL site as the best commercially zoned, unoccupied location in Upper Arlington capable of attracting high-end office use and the income tax revenue that would accompany it. The complex procedural process that traveled twice through city planning and zoning offices, the board of zoning appeals and city

council and was ultimately appealed to the state courts, was dismissed last week and filed as a federal court action. City spokesperson Emma Speight said the city was unaware of Tree of Life’s change of forum until it had happened. “We’re looking at just the federal suit at this point,” Speight said. “On Jan. 5, we started getting calls from the local media who had received a press release stating Alliance Defense Fund had filed a lawsuit on behalf of Tree of Life against the city. That was the first we had heard of it. We ended up receiving the papers about 4 p.m. that afternoon. We found out the next day that Tree of Life had dismissed its suit in Franklin County.” Attorney Erik Stanley of the Alliance Defense Fund said it was common for similar suits to be resolved in less than two years. “Tree of Life has filed the lawsuit to protect its constitutional rights and will be pro-

ceeding with that,” Stanley said. “We always maintain an open posture to talk settlement if the city wants, but we are going to push forward with the lawsuit.” Stanley said the city is not treating like uses equally. “For Tree of Life this case is all about equal treatment under the city of Upper Arlington’s zoning code,” Stanley said. “The code allows for similar uses to what Tree of Life wants to do as permitted uses or conditional uses in the office and research center zoning district where Tree of Life is located, but Tree of Life has been told they could not even apply. It’s really a case of equal treatment under the law.” In a written statement, the city said revenue from the site is important. “Members of current and past city councils have all stated that proactive economic See LAWSUIT, page A2

The U.S. Postal Service is shipping out from its current location at 3700 Riverside Drive to a new retail location at the Kingsdale Shopping Center, but not for a few more months. The new operation is a costcutting measure for the postal service, according to Richard Hancock, a real estate specialist for the USPS Eastern Facilities Service Office. The savings will not affect services, however, and he said it should provide added convenience for many Upper Arlington residents with the newlybuilt facility and more centralized location. In early 2010, city council worked with the USPS to survey residents about the best location for the new branch office. The USPS looked at sites at 2812 Fishinger Road, 3280 Riverside Drive, 2121 Riverside Drive and then at the Kingsdale, Arlington Commons and Fiesta shopping centers. Survey results from the February poll showed 58 percent of residents felt that Kingsdale would be the best fit. Although resident input was not the only factor in making this decision, the USPS did take it into consideration and ultimately came to the same conclusion as residents. An official move date has not yet been announced, but Hancock said the timeframe for the move is scheduled for sometime between the end of July and the beginning of September.

A closer look In early 2010, city council worked with the USPS to survey residents about the best location for the new branch office. Survey results from the February poll showed 58 percent of residents felt that Kingsdale would be the best fit.

While the current location handles mail sorting and distribution functions, the new location only will serve as a retail location. “The mail sorting that was occurring at the Riverside location will move down to the Twin Rivers location,” Hancock said. “(We are) not aware of any planned job cuts associated with the move.” The new location is expected to continue to provide similar lobby services available at the current location such as shipping, passport applications and packaging and postage sales. The new location also will continue to offer post office box services. Lobby hours are expected to remain the same as at the current location: Monday through Friday 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., Saturday 8 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and closed on Sunday. Matt Shad, the city’s economic development director, told ThisWeek that the current owner of the Riverside Drive property has not announced how the space might be used after the lease with the U.S. Post Office concludes.

Board approves tentative agreement with OAPSE By KATE HETRICK ThisWeek Community Newspapers The Upper Arlington Board of Education approved a provisional contract with the Ohio Association of Public School Employees (OAPSE) Local 201 at Monday night’s meeting. Board members discussed the terms of the tentative agreement in executive session. Steve Phillips, the district’s executive director of personnel, said the board has agreed to a three-year contract , beginning in January 2011 and ending in December 2013.

The contract includes a 2 percent base increase in salary for 2011, to be followed by a 1.25 percent increase in 2012 and a 1.85 percent increase in 2013. Under the new contract, OAPSE members will pay a higher percentage of their health insurance premiums. The premium for individual coverage will increase from 5 to 7 percent in 2011, and from 7 to 8 percent in 2013. The family coverage premium will increase from 8 to 10 percent in 2011, and from 10 to 11 percent in 2013. Phillips said negotiations with OAPSE spanned three days. Mike Vernon, the

head custodian at Barrington Elementary School, serves as president of the local OAPSE chapter. “They did their homework; we did our homework,” Phillips said. “We put our issues on the table and had a good exchange.” The “language and concepts” of the contract have been decided, he said, but it has yet to be finalized. The district must meet with Chad Caldwell, OAPSE state representative, before the contract is official. Board members also heard a report from district audit committee representatives Andy Livingston and Linda

Moulakis. Moulakis said an independent financial audit was conducted for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2010. “The report states that there were no material control weakness conditions, no deficiencies, no reported material non-compliance issues and no material internal control weaknesses,” she said. “We continue to be a low-risk auditee.” In other matters: Marjory Pizzuti was sworn in as board president for 2011, replacing Robert Arkin. Robin Comfort was reelected to the position of vice-president. Comfort

Boys Basketball

Casey downplays Coffman game By PATRICK DOLAN ThisWeek Community Newspapers

Upper Arlington High School boys basketball coach Tim Casey knows the importance of his team’s game Friday at Dublin Coffman: The winner has sole possession of first place in the OCC-Central Division. However, he is quick to point out that the Golden Bears’ season doesn’t hinge on the game. “Whoever wins that one is in the driver’s seat for the second (round of league play),” Casey said. “But at this time of year, you can’t put too much into one game. I’ve made that mistake in years past. Hey, it’s a big game, an important game, but it’s no more important than (any other league game). No matter what happens in that game, we have to move forward

to the next game. It’s not do-or-die.” Both UA and Coffman are 6-0 in the OCC-Central. The Bears were 90 overall and carried a 28-game regular-season winning streak into their contest against Watterson last Tuesday. The Shamrocks improved to 70 overall with a 70-42 win over Worthington Kilbourne last Friday. UA swept the Shamrocks in league play last season, winning 64-58 at home in the first matchup and 65-62 on the road in the second, on its way to winning its first OCC championship since the 1995-96 season. The teams met again in a Division I district semifinal, with Coffman defeating the Bears 50-48. The Shamrocks returned only one regular starter from a year ago in 6foot-1 senior guard Christian Heine, who scored a season-high 24 points

in a 60-45 win over Hilliard Davidson on Jan. 3. Other key players include 6-1 senior guard Zack Riddle, a transfer from Watterson who scored a season-high 24 points in an 84-61 win over Westland on Dec. 10, and 6-0 senior guard Matt DiThomas. “Coffman’s a traditional powerhouse,” Casey said. “It’s going to be a tough matchup. They’ve got veteran guys, experienced guys like we do, and they’ve got some young guys that are playing extended minutes. And playing over there is going to make it even tougher.” “Their place is always packed and always a great environment,” junior guard Carter Smith said. “They ended our year last year. We’re going to do everything we can this week to prepare and hopefully go there and get the win.”

Against Coffman last season, senior guard Brian Sullivan scored a career-high 35 points in the first regular-season contest and 25 in the second but only 10 in the postseason game. The only other returnees to score in double figures against the Shamrocks last season are senior post player Wes Richter, who scored 11 points in the home win, and senior post player Chris Watson, who scored 10 in the tournament game. For Smith, the tournament loss was difficult on a personal level. With Coffman leading 50-48 and UA playing for a final shot, he took an uncontested shot with one foot on the 3-point line. The shot hit off the rim and time expired. Smith, a 5-9 junior guard, showed

Brookhaven first of many to hire coach By JARROD ULREY ThisWeek Community Newspapers

The first domino to fall in the central Ohio high school football coaching scene this offseason occurred over the holiday break when Brookhaven High School hired former Bearcats and Marion-Franklin assistant Trevor White to take over its program. Then on Jan. 6, Reynoldsburg athletics coordinator Jack Purtell announced that his school would be recommending current Hartley assistant Buddy White as its new coach at its next school board meeting. Several other area coaching vacancies should be filled over the next month. Late last month, several sources told ThisWeekSPORTS.com that the Johnstown-Monroe Local School District wasn’t planning to renew the contract of nine-year coach Mike Carter at a future board meeting. The status of that situation is yet to be resolved. Openings at Columbus East, Hilliard Bradley and Westland also have started to come into focus. At Reynoldsburg, where its job had been vacant since shortly after the season, the school

had about 30 applicants, including some former and present head coaches. Buddy White is expected to succeed Steve Evans, who went 7-23 in three seasons with the Raiders after taking over a team that went 3-7 in 2007. Evans successfully turned around programs at Hamilton Township and Teays Valley but couldn’t repeat the task at Reynoldsburg, where athletes have had to pay as much as $500 in pay-to-participate fees per sport. As a result of the high payto-participate fees, the Raiders have had several football players transfer to schools such as Pickerington Central and Pickerington North in recent years. Reynoldsburg won three of its first five games last season, including a 17-14 win over Newark on Sept 24, but lost its final five to finish with a 3-7 record. The Raiders’ last winning season came in 2005 when they went 6-4. Their only playoff berth came in 2001 under former coach Tony Pusateri. Buddy White coached varsity wide receivers, was the head freshman coach and assisted with the junior varsity last seaSee FOOTBALL, page B3

McQuade, with 12 points, was one of four Coffman players who scored in double figures in first game against UA. “McQuade makes that team go,” Savage said. “You’re not going to totally stop her, but we’re hoping we can throw her off her game a little bit.” “Coffman’s a very good team,” Spielman said. “We knew that going into that game, but I think we’ll be a little more prepared this time around.” It’s not difficult to determine where Spielman gets her love for playing defense.

During winter break, Reid Postle took a week off from training with the Wellington School boys swimming and diving team for a family vacation. Two weeks later, the senior is still feeling the effects of the practice time he missed. “The hardest part of missing this week is getting back into the routine,” said Postle, who swims the 50-yard freestyle and the 100 breaststroke. “It was really surprising how much you lose in a week. I was only gone for five days, but it seems like I’ve lost a lot of stamina.” Coach Bill Miller said Postle’s situation is not uncommon. The Jaguars have optional practices over the holiday break because of family vacations and other commitments. As a result, it takes the swimmers awhile to get back into the flow of things. “I hope they don’t lose a lot of strength and technique over the break,” Miller said. “This week

is going to be important to us. We’ve got four meets in seven days. It gets them ready for the rest of the season.” The Jaguars had several swimmers and divers ranked in the area honor roll released Jan. 3. For the boys team, Jon Miller was ranked fourth (1 minute, 5.89 seconds) in the 100 breast and seventh (2:14.75) in the 200 individual medley, and Cameron Kirk was third (151.32) in diving. For the girls team, Jenna Tugaoen was third (1:02.73) in the 100 backstroke, seventh (2:07.17) in the 200 free, seventh (1:03.29) in 100 butterfly and ninth (26.11) in the 50 free. Annie Miller was fourth (1:11.18) in the 100 breast and eighth (2:21.21) in the 200 IM, Brittany Anderson was first (249.25) in diving and Brittany Johnson was fifth (142.25) in diving. Wellington started the demanding stretch in its schedule last Saturday. The boys team scored 109 points to finish ahead of Kenton (95), Northland (83) See JAGUARS, page B2

The Jaguars compete against host Columbus Academy and Hartley today before competing in the Bexley Invitational on Saturday at St. Charles. Miller believes the Bexley Invitational will be a good test. In addition to Wellington and Bexley, expected to compete are Buckeye Valley, Hartley, Olentangy Orange and Reynoldsburg. â€œThatâ€™s going to be a good mix of teams for us,â€? Miller said. â€œWeâ€™ve got some good Division II competition and some Division I teams thrown in there. Most of the teams there weâ€™re going to see in a month or so at the (Division II) sectional and district meets. â€œItâ€™s going to be a good, fast meet for our top swimmers. Weâ€™re trying to see if theyâ€™re on track for their goals.â€? Last season, 2010 graduate Pete Campbell and sophomore Annie Miller taught the Jaguars

to set their goals past making it to district. Campbell became the boys teamâ€™s first state qualifier, placing 20th in the 100 back (56:02). Miller became the girls teamâ€™s first swimmer as well as programâ€™s first underclassmen to make it to state, where she tied Bay Village Bayâ€™s Audrey McDonald for 20th in the 100 breast (1:10.06).

Continued from page B1 he could come through in the clutch in a 50-48 win over Kilbourne on Dec. 10. With the game tied at 48 and UA playing for a final shot, he drove along the baseline and made a layup as time expired. “Last year against Coffman in that tournament game was a tough ending,” Smith said. “That was hard for me to get over, but after the Kilbourne game I was able to put it behind me. It was big for my confidence in clutch moments.” A backup last season, Smith has emerged as one of the Bears’ top players this season as their starting point guard. “Carter got a lot of experience last year, especially in the second half of last year,” Casey said. “Now he’s our leader. He’s our primary ball-handler. He contributes in a lot of different ways. The biggest thing he brings is a competitive spirit. He’s got big, big energy; he never gets tired. I’ve never had a guard that can put as much pressure on the basketball as Carter. He’s relentless

Below are the recent results and coming schedule for the Upper Arlington boys basketball team: Dec. 14 — Defeated Dublin Jerome 63-41. Brian Sullivan scored 24 points, Wes Richter and Eric Vannatta both scored 11 and Carter Smith had 10. *Dec. 17 — Def. Hilliard Darby 5645. Sullivan scored 18 points and Smith scored 10. *Dec. 21 — Def. Central Crossing 64-32. Sullivan scored 15 points and Richter and Smith both scored 14. Dec. 28 — Def. Erie (Pa.)

and that wears on guys. If you relax for a minute, he’s going to take it from you.” “It kind of gets our defense going and I think it kind of gets me going offensively, too,” Smith said of his defensive play. “It gets more adrenaline going in my body and gets me pumped up in a game. I just try to do what I can to help us get stops and get the win.” Smith was averaging 13.3 points through nine games, ranking him second on the team behind Sullivan (19.9). Richter was third (11.9), followed by junior guard Connor Casey (5.9) and senior forward Eric Vannatta (5.1).

Dec. 30 — Def. Pittsburgh Canevin 58-38 in Girard (Pa.) Holiday Tournament. Sullivan scored 19 points, Connor Casey scored 13 and Richter scored 10. *Jan. 3 — Def. Westland 73-51. Sullivan scored 26 points, Richter scored 18 and Smith scored 14. *Last Friday — Def. Hilliard Davidson 48-35. Smith scored 20 points, Sullivan scored 13 and Richter scored 10. Last Tuesday — Played Watterson *Friday — At Dublin Coffman Of note: The Bears were 9-0 overall before last Tuesday and are 6-0 in the OCC-Central. *OCC-Central game

Smith had a career-high 20 points in a 48-35 win over Davidson last Friday with the Wildcats focusing on containing Sullivan, who was held to 13 points. “Offensively, (Smith) scores when he has to and other games he gets other guys involved,” coach Casey said. “Those nights like (last Friday) where (opponents) are pressing up on (Sullivan) and have his number a little bit, I try to step up and try to help our team,” Smith said. pdolan@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

Walls earn national honors in soccer From staff reports Upper Arlington graduates Travis and Tyler Wall have been named All-Americans by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America and d3soccer.com. Travis Wall, a junior forward at Ohio Wesleyan, was a first-team selection by the NSCAA and a second-team selection by d3soccer.com. He had 10 goals and 12 assists this season.

Tyler Wall, a senior midfielder, was a first-team selection by d3soccer.com and a third-team selection by the NSCAA after leading Ohio Wesleyan in scoring with 19 goals and five assists. He also was named North Coast Athletic Conference Offensive Player of the Year for the second year in a row. The Walls also were named first-team All-Great Lakes Region by the NSCAA.

He previously assisted at West Virginia State College (198082), Salem College (1982-86), Watkins Memorial (1990-95, 1997-2001), Marion-Franklin (2001-04) and Reynoldsburg (2005-09). “We have to find a person we think is going to fit with all of the cuts that are looming,” Purtell said a day before announcing the selection of Buddy White. “As tough as our league is, we just want to bring in a leader who will have a good relationship with the kids and parents and be a good role model. When you have that, a lot of times success will follow. Being in the league we are in, we don’t want a rookie.” According to Bradley athletics director Chip Ebert, his program received about 60 résumés since the position was vacated in mid-November. After guiding St. Charles to a 20-20 mark in four seasons, Ted Wierzbicki coached Bradley to 2-8 and 3-7 records, respectively, during its first two seasons.

Quarterback Kasey Wendal, a 2007 graduate, was named the ThisWeek Super 25 captain that season. “I’ve interviewed a couple of internal candidates and now we’re looking at outside résumés,” Burke said. “I’d like to have it wrapped up by mid-January. I think having a knowledge of Westland is obviously a very big benefit. We think we’ll be able to have a very suitable candidate for the job.” Columbus East is starting interviews of its nine applicants and could have a new coach by the end of January, according to athletics director Corinne Moore. Mike White resigned at season’s end after coaching the Tigers to a 35-95 record in 13 seasons. East’s only winning season during White’s tenure came in 1999 when it went 83 and made the Division II playoffs. The Tigers posted 5-5 finishes in both 2006 and ’08 but went 4-6 in 2009 and just 1-9 last season. East’s only win last fall came in White’s final game when the Tigers beat Linden-McKinley 18-14 on Oct. 29.

We want someone who’s going to motivate our kids and attract more players out for the team. I don’t really care what kind of offense or defense they like to run, but we just want them to be someone that people will follow.” Westland athletics director Greg Burke received about 10 résumés for his school’s vacancy. Brian Smith resigned Nov. 1, three days after the Cougars’ season-ending 33-12 loss to Central Crossing. In three seasons under Smith, Westland went just 2-28 overall and 0-19 in OCC play. The Cougars’ only wins during that time came in 2008 over Cleveland John Marshall (30-20) and last season over Toledo Scott (28-0). After not fielding a team in 2009 because of the SouthWestern City Schools levy failure, Westland went 1-9 overall and 0-7 in the OCC-Central last season.

1 One day, a presently-young

film composer/pianist will perform a concert paying tribute to Dave Grusin, the Academy Award-winning film composer who, this weekend, pays tribute to film composer Henry Mancini in concerts with the Columbus Jazz Orchestra. Or at least if there’s any justice, one will. Point being, Grusin’s career is heavily influenced by the great Mancini, so it would be appropriate to carry on the tradition. The CJO program is “A Night at the Movies,” and features Mancini tunes like The Pink Panther Theme and Baby Elephant Walk alongside other classic film repertoire, including Somewhere Over the Rainbow and As Time Goes By.

Dave Grusin

A jazz pianist (and record label exec — he’s the “G” in contemporary jazz giant GRP Records) as well as composer, Grusin’s film scores include Heaven Can Wait, On Golden Pond and Tootsie. Tickets for the Jan. 14-15 concerts at the Southern Theatre are $41-$49. Call (614) 294-5200.

And hot, evidenced by the continuing presence of a North American Company, a permanent London Company and a European tour, all in addition to its 14-year continuous run in New York City. The brooms, plungers, trash cans and lighters are all back, but the troupe is always on the lookout for new “instruments” — this latest tour includes tractor tire inner tubes and paint cans.

Scampering waiters and above-average food at new Poblano’s MENU Except for the hardest-working and quickest-moving wait staff in town — servers literally, stunningly and unfailingly jog across its wide-open and winding-around spaces — Poblano’s is nothing you haven’t seen before. That said, this bright and tidy newish Mexican restaurant’s food was consistently a cut above the norm. Occupying a rambling, double-decker edifice spread out over several rooms, Poblano’s is a big and splashy establishment. Kind of fun in a kitschy and touristy way, its brash color scheme alternates from one tropically tinted wall to the next. So as your head whirls as you try to follow that kinetic wait staff moving to the beat of relentlessly uptempo cumbia music, your eyes will rush past tones like tan-

by G.A. Benton gerine orange, avocado green, mango yellow and chili pepper red. After the arrival of fresh and above-average chips and salsa, you’re probably going to want some of the slightly orange-flavored house margaritas. I recommend the worth-it upcharge for a lasts-forever (and potent!) half pitcher of “Poblano’s” Margaritas ($17) made with Hornitos tequila and Cointreau. Appetizer-wise, though the homey, oregano-flecked and salty chicken and tortilla soups were both pleasant enough (each $2.50), my favorite starter was the extra-large and super-valued

The El Amigo entrée and Tres Leches cake at Poblano’s.

Whitefish Ceviche ($6.50). I liked how its abundant, creamy and unblemished avocado chunks calmed down the assertive yet enticing fresh lime juice mixture

(with diced tomato and onion) in which the plentiful chopped raw fish was “cooked.” From the “House Specialties” entrees, El Amigo ($15) will definitely live up to its name and be your friend — if, like me, you’re a big eater. A virtual Mexican smorgasbord on a single plate, it was spilling over with nicely seared shrimp plus rice and beans (they grace most every meal and yes, they’re better than most), crisply grilled slices of thin beef (carne aside) and a boneless, skinless chicken breast. Both terrestrial proteins tasted great beneath their layers of rich melted Mexican cheese and zesty, greasy chorizo (but what wouldn’t?) Real Mexican chiles rellenos have an eggier batter than you generally get in America. Since I got something approximating that at Poblano’s, I’d rate theirs

($10.50) on the higher side. I mixed and matched a chicken (stewy) with a beef (hamburger vastly improved by being cooked with onion, carrot and potato) to fine effect. Though I doubt it was completely made from scratch, the mole sauce on my Enchiladas Poblanos ($9.50) was thicker, less sweet, richer and more complex (tasting of roasted chilies with a hint of cinnamon) than average.

It was slathered over a trio of tortillas wrapped around chicken stewed with rajas (roasted poblano pepper strips). Nice. Also quite nice was a massive platter of Chile Verde ($11). That one featured huge chunks of tender, stewy pork shoulder enlivened by a piquant tomatillo salsa. I’m a sucker for Pastel de Tres Leches, and Poblano’s version ($4.50) did not disappoint. Soaked in sweetened condensed milk, slightly perfumey and elaborately decorated with caramel icing piped into rococo decorations, it was a piece of cake that tasted as good as it looked. To read G.A.

Powell pizzeria serves up classic New York-style pies After Brooklyn Pizza opened on New Year’s Day, the New Yorkers started filing in. One guy was from Brooklyn, another from Staten Island. Long Island was represented, as was Albany. Owner Anthony La Cerva didn’t know there were so many Empire State transplants living in central Ohio. “There’s a lot of pressure on me,” he said. But it seems he has a hot, cheesedripping commodity – a New York-style pizza, complete with a crispy, foldable crust, 100-percent mozzarella and a house-mixed sauce. “The only thing that’s missing is the water,” he said. La Cerva’s goal was to create a true pizzeria, similar to the ones his father owned in the New York metropolitan area. “When I was a kid, I was stuck at a table folding pizza boxes,” he said. Thin-crust pizzas, cut into triangles no less, appeared to be an anomaly in central Ohio. Rarer still were by-theslice options. “Maybe the pizza places (in town) don’t think they make enough money on it,” he said. “I’m stumped. In New York, they’re all over the place.” Brooklyn Pizza, a carryout at 30 Grace Drive, has taken over the former Joshua’s Pizza in a strip center just north

of the restaurant-laden intersection at Liberty and Olentangy streets. La Cerva said he’s somewhat concerned about the lack of foot traffic in his strip center but is confident his product is singular enough to draw people from all over the region. “I want to be the exclusive,” he said. “Everybody’s going to have to come over here.” Pies come in 14 and 16 inches, plus a 16-by-16 Sicilian alternative. Toppings include the traditional to more designer choices, such as roasted red peppers, sun-dried tomatoes. A 16-inch

oats is being served at Starling’s new breakfast-and-lunch spot, Jodi’s Home Cooking, which recently took over the 29-seat Grace Diner space at 240 N. Liberty St. She admits that most customers haven’t even heard of it. “But once they taste it, they love it,” said Starling, who ran the Sunbury Grill for three years. It has myriad uses – for example, complementing omelets – or is enjoyable as a side, she said. Starling’s customers can get a GLT – a goetta, lettuce and tomato sandwich. She also has a parade of homemade dishes, including buttermilk biscuits and gravy, soups, chili, pancakes and such. Her potatoes are fresh-cut and her burgers are hand-patted. Prices range from $3 for a la carte items to $7.99 for meals. “I love to cook. I like to cook anything,” she said. “I’m not much of a baker. I love to cook comfort food that fills people up.” Jodi’s Home Cooking is open for breakfast and lunch Tuesday through Sunday, closed Monday. For more information, call 614-785-0474.
