Merion Village Garden Tour has 14 stops By GARY SEMAN JR. ThisWeek Community Newspapers Jed Thorp and Sarah Harrigan have cultivated quite a garden at their Merion Village home. More than 200 plant species, from rustic perennials to vibrant annuals, are featured. “We’ve got a little bit of everything,” Thorp said. The garden boasts hostas, foxgloves, peonies, annual lilies, coneflowers, daisies and roses, plus trees and shrubs. They’ve installed some water elements, too — a bamboo-spout fountain and a fish pond. “We did some things to ‘green’ the garden a bit,” Thorp said, pointing to a compost bin and a 50-gallon rain barrel. The couple’s house at 389 E. Gates St. is one of 14 stops on the 12th annual Merion Village Garden Tour, to be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday, July 10. The tour will feature 10 gardens and four special stops. Thorp said he and his wife have continued a tradition set by the previous owners and tweaked it a little. Friends and neighbors talked them into joining the tour this year. See GARDEN TOUR, page A2 Photos by Eric George/ThisWeek

New pizzeria to use local ingredients
Glick: Recent carjacking a reminder to be watchful
By GARY SEMAN JR. ThisWeek Community Newspapers Harvest Pizzeria is the latest central Ohio restaurant to look to local sources for most of its ingredients. Chris Crader will open the store with his fiancée, Bethany Lovell, and investor Richard Sapienza. The pizzeria is slated to open July 15 at 495 S. Fourth St. in German Village. Crader said Ohio is replete with some of the best nature has to offer, including vegetables, pepperoni and cheese. “I don’t think it’s a fad, either,” Crader said. “I thought the village could use something that embraces the whole local thing.” Crader is not only building relationships with local growers and producers; he is doing his part by harvesting tomatoes and peppers on a one-acre plot he calls Goose Foot Farm in Canal Winchester. When the season won’t allow fresh vegetables, he’ll turn to the bounty of the Buckeye State as often as possible. For example, he plans to use Dei Fratelli tomato products. The Naples-style pies will have a thin crust, using fresh dough tossed by Amy Lozier at Omega Artisan Baking in the North Market. Space constraints prohibit Harvest Pizzeria from preparing dough on site, Crader said. Harvest Pizzeria takes over roughly 1,200 square feet of space in a once-vacant unit just south of East Livingston Avenue. Crader said he liked the neighborhood’s atmosphere and the cozy storefront, which seats 28 inside and another 20 on the patio.

Chris Crader and Bethany Lovell, along with investor Richard Sapienza (not pictured), plan to open Harvest Pizzeria this month at 495 S. Fourth St. in German Village. They plan to use mostly local ingredients.
Pizzas will be baked in a 3,300-pound Forno Bravo pizza oven, shipped in from California. It was assembled, with considerable work, on the premises, Crader said. The gas oven gets the temperature up to 800 degrees, while burning wood raises the temperature another 100 degrees. The menu will offer a dozen signature pies, plus a build-your-own section. All pizzas will be 11 inches and priced from $11 to $15. In the tradition of an Italian pie, toppings are
applied judiciously, so as not to overwhelm the crust or overburden the senses, Crader said. “Nothing’s piled on too much,” he said. Chef Matt Owens, an Ohio State University graduate who studied cooking at the New England Culinary Institute in Vermont, agreed. “It’s all about balance, finding the right balance of everything,” Owens said. Owens formerly worked at the various sta-
A recent carjacking incident should serve as a reminder to German Village residents to be vigilant about crime prevention, said one local official. The incident, which was discussed June 30 at the monthly police luncheon at the Meeting Haus, occurred in the early evening hours of June 25 while nearby neighbors enjoyed a PreTour party. A woman was getting into her car at the corner of South Sixth and Sycamore streets when she was approached by three men. One of the men drew a gun and ordered her out of the car. The woman exited the vehicle unharmed and the other men ran away. One of the men then drove the car to a nearby grocery store. A special-duty police officer working there recognized the suspect’s description and arrested the man, whose name has not been released See POLICE LUNCHEON, page A2

Classic comedy to be screened at Frank Fetch Park By GARY SEMAN JR. ThisWeek Community Newspapers “Some Like It Hot,” the 1959 comedy classic featuring a cross-dressing Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis trying to escape mobsters, will kick off the season’s first movie night in Frank Fetch Park. The movie will be shown at 9 p.m. Saturday, July 9, at the park, located at East Beck Street and Dixon Alley. It is free and open to the public. Spectators are encouraged to bring their own chairs and refreshments.
The inaugural movie night was held last year with a screening of “The Sound of Music.” Jerry Glick, who helps organize the movie nights, said it was wellreceived, paving the way for more outdoor shows. The German Village Society’s 50th anniversary committee, organized last year to celebrate the society’s founding in 1960, donated an outdoor movie screen and projector as a gift to the park and the GVS, Glick said. Glick is among a small group of people who select the movies.
“We get other people’s suggestions,” he said. “And ‘Some Like It Hot’ was suggested more than any other film. So we thought that was a good sign.” Another movie night in the park is planned for later this year, he said. Outdoor movie nights have cropped up all over central Ohio, in places such as Columbus Commons, Creekside in Gahanna, Goodale Park and Easton Town Center. The Wexner Center for the Arts, 1871 N. High St., is celebrating its sixth annual Wex Drive-In series this summer,
said Karen Simonian, director of media and public relations for the center. The next film, “Battle in Outer Space,” will be shown at 9 p.m. July 21. “There’s nothing quite like watching a movie under the stars on a warm summer night, surrounded by a big crowd of people just kicking back, enjoying popcorn or ice cream or a beverage with friends and family,” Simonian said. “It feels very nostalgic and old-fashioned.” Beth Ervin, communications director See MOVIE NIGHT, page A2

for Experience Columbus and a German Village resident, said the popularity of outdoor movies seems to transcend generations: Baby boomers and older generations enjoy them because drive-ins have become so scarce and young people like them because they are something different. “It’s just a more festive setting,� she said. “It offers a nice alternative to watching a movie indoors.

POLICE LUNCHEON Continued from page A1 by police, pending further investigation. Jerry Glick, who organizes the luncheons, said the incident is one of the rare violent crimes that occurs in the village, but it should be a clarion call for residents, who must always be watchful for suspicious activity. Glick suggested that people escort their friends to their vehicles, if at all possible, especially at night. “That’s one way we can all watch out for each other,� he said. He lauded the actions of the police, which led to the quick apprehension of the suspect. “No question about it, because I talked to several people in that vicinity who said the police and helicopters were there immediately,� Glick said. In other news from the meeting, police officers told the audience they made eight arrests after a crime sweep of Kobacker Park, located on Kossuth Street near Parsons Avenue. Police said the park, a well-known hangout for gang members and drug dealers, was under surveillance for six months. The sweep was conducted around 6:30 p.m. June 29. gseman@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

Crader and Lovell are restaurant industry veterans, with Crader working for such notable local restaurants as Due Amici, Barrio and the Rossi.

In the spirit of celebrating everyone’s favorite city park, here is another spotlight on Schiller Park and its link to the history of “base ball” in Columbus. (No, that isn’t a typo; the kind of base ball that was played in Schiller would have been expressed as two words.) Everyone should read James Tootle’s “Baseball in Columbus.” It’s a quick read about the history of the sport in Columbus and it’s great because one doesn’t immediately associate Columbus with baseball these days. The very general history of baseball is that it spread throughout the country right after the Civil War. Troops played during their spare time, soldiers taught other
soldiers and, ultimately, veterans taught those still at home when they returned. In 1866, Columbus resJODY idents Allen GRAICHEN Thurman and brothers W.G. and Daniel Deshler purchased Stewart’s Grove, which today is known as Schiller Park. The Thurman and Deshler families had players on teams named the Excelsiors and the Capitals, and with the purchase of Stewart’s Grove, the teams had a new site to practice and play.
German Village Cupcakes captain Kelly Clark (right) was one of the residents who played in last year’s vintage ‘base ball’ game against the Ohio Village Muffins (background) in Schiller Park.

One year later, the Washington Nationals used Schiller Park, then called City Park, when they played the Capital Club. The Nationals were a big deal and their trip to Columbus garnered considerable attention. As expected, the Nationals scored a lopsided victory, 90-10, but it was an exciting day for the city, and the traveling party of the Nationals praised Columbus for its “good sportsmanship, hospitality and the skill of its players.” This Nationals game has been replayed by the Ohio Village Muffins in Schiller Park in all their 1860s-style base ball best for the past few decades. For 30 years, the Ohio Historical Society has sponsored the Ohio Village Muffins to teach the importance of group recreation in the mid-19th century. The team is America’s first full-time vintage base ball program, and since its beginnings in 1981, the Muffins have assisted in the formation of nearly 50 other vintage teams throughout the United States. The Muffins play in uniforms patterned after a Currier and Ives lithograph titled, “The American National Game.” The uniforms consist of plain long pants, a pillbox hat and a bow tie — anyone who watched last year’s MuffinsCupcakes game knows how dapper the players look. Last summer, as part of the German Village Society’s 50th-anniversary celebration, we fielded a team to play vintage base ball against the Muffins. Thus, the Cupcakes (sponsored by Bakery Gingham) were born. The Muffins bested the Cupcakes, but like the Nationals-Capital Club game, that was kind of expected. Though the skills fell short, the enthusiasm didn’t, so this year, the “Showdown at Schiller” rematch is on! Captained again by Kelly Clark, the team is looking for players and an audience at 2:30 p.m. Sunday, July 10, at the park. If you missed last year’s game, here is your chance to see vintage base ball and your friends in Schiller Park. If you want to play, let Kelly know at kclark@playnetwork.com. This weekend, join your neighbors, the Muffins and the Friends of Schiller for a truly unique sporting event that you know could only happen in German Village! Jody Graichen is director of historic preservation programs for the German Village Society.

G. Michael’s Bistro serves seafood treasures Summer officially just started, but I’m already worried you’re going to blow it. How? Well, by missing out on great-here today, gone-tomorrow delicacies. That would be a shame, because eating fleetingly available seasonal treasures — and I’m not even talking about vegetables — not only thrills your taste buds, but it fills you with a seize-the-day pleasure that makes life richer. You want that, right? If not, stop reading. If yes, get yourself to G. Michael’s for a plate of rare and incredible seafood. With its warm-weather menu in place, G. Michael’s has lightened up a bit. I’ll eventually get to some wonderful items on that list (and how to get them at a discount), but first I want to point you to the recurring summertime specials that have gotten me so “Don’t miss it!” excited: sublime and difficult-to-find white-fleshed salmon plus some of the best soft-shell crabs around. Summer is prime soft-shell crab sea-
MENU by G.A. Benton son, and I love those crazy-looking things. Unfortunately, they too often arrive uncrispy, cooked to mush and so puny there’s not much to sink your teeth into. Not here. G. Michael’s soft shells — which get a pleasingly ungreasy and delightfully crackly cornmeal jacketing — are generally thicker, providing pockets of sweet lovely meat. Lately I’ve had them in appetizer form ($12) detailed New Orleans style, with racy red rice and a rich remoulade sauce, and Asian-inflected, with a stir-fry-like slaw. Both were terrific. We’re also currently enjoying the shortlived wild Alaskan salmon season. If you’ve only had commonplace farmed Atlantic salmon, I urge you to seek out their more elegant Pacific cousin. I recently hit the lottery at G. Mike’s by scor-

ing infrequently encountered Alaskan King Salmon with pale, whitesh meat. Called ivory salmon, it was simply and beautifully grilled. This delicate, succulent fish — likely the mildest salmon
you’re liable to eat — came partnered with stuffing-like cremini mushroom fritters, a vivid tomato and herb ratatouille, and a couple (possibly food-chain-riffing) shrimp. Order this stunner immediately if you spot it as a special. If pristine and rarely seen seafood isn’t your thing, try the lean and mean Marinated American Bison Flatiron Steak ($28). The tender, beefy meat had a sexy char on it and except for a couple of gristly bites, was a delight. It arrived with a fruity, Worcestershire-perked sauce plus irresistibly crisp and oniony smoked goudaenhanced hash browns. If entrees don’t beckon, G. Michael’s excellent (and not-so-small) small plates have big flavors and can be had for just $6 until 7 p.m. Monday through Friday (two are plenty for dinner). Of course the awesome Shrimp and Grits is on the greatest hits list, but here are some favorites: • Seared Jumbo Scallops: This place is also famous for its great scallops, and

this dynamic duo — crested with intense pickled rhubarb and plated with a warm apple and fennel salad — only enhances that reputation. • Pressed Veal Sweetbreads: Wow. Imagine creamy and complex grilled sausage patties and cheesy hash browns (plus a colorful corn relish and smoky tomato sauce) for dinner. • Sweet Yellow Corn Johnnycakes: Another play on breakfast-for-dinner, these were fluffy and savory pancakes layered with game-changing Pernodsauced spinach, mild crawfish tails, peppers and an onion sauce. • Grilled Housemade Bratwurst Patty: Happiness on a beautiful breakfast-style biscuit with killer kraut and mustard.
After 14 years in Northland, Spain to reopen in Lewis Center
By Chris Parker/ThisWeek
Spain Restaurant is opening at the intersection of Powell Road and U.S. Route 23 after being in Northland for 14 years
A new era in the history of Spain Restaurant begins in Lewis Center. After 14 years in the Northland area, the restaurant has relocated to 76 Powell Road, in the former Beeb’s Deli location. Owner Andres Casal said he closed the Northland site in late May to concentrate on his new store, set to open later this month. “The space is comfortable,” he said. “It’s nice — not too big, not too small.” He has spent the last several months renovating the interior, building a bar and installing a new floor and seating. The 3,600-square-foot building seats 120, with another 40 on the patio. The menu offers many traditional Spanish dishes, such as paella, gazpacho and cabrito, or goat, which is marinated for four days before being slow-cooked. The bill of fare is heavy on seafood dishes, with beef and poultry dishes represented as well. There’s even duck a l’orange, using Casal’s own special recipe. Most dinner entrees are in the $17 to $20 range. In addition to a set lunch menu, 10 specials will be featured for the afternoon crowd, Casal said. No lunch item will top $10, he said. All desserts — including flan, cheesecake and tres leches cake — are made from scratch. Spain also will carry a full liquor license but will not offer tapas, a style of small plates often misinterpreted in American restaurants. “Maybe in the future I’ll open a tapas bar — a real tapas bar — downtown,” he said. As with the previous location, the latest Spain will have white tablecloths and linen napkins
for a sophisticated look but a casual ambience. The restaurant got its start in 1994 on the West Side. Casal, who began cooking professionally in restaurants in New Jersey, was hired at the original location shortly after it opened. He bought his way into the ownership over the years. Casal will reopen Spain nightclub in the former storefront at 888 W. Dublin-Granville Road in the Best Western Hotel in the next week or so, he said. It will be open Friday and Saturday. Yet, the neighborhood couldn’t seem to get back on the upswing, so Casal decided to move to an area that’s closer to his customer base. With few upscale dining options in the immediate area, the restaurant is perfectly situated between Polaris and nearby Powell, he said. “It’s good for me,” he said. “Competition is good but sometimes it’s good to not have too much competition.” Misperceptions still persist about Spanish cooking, which tends to be lumped in with any cuisine south of the American border, Casal said. He said his style of cuisine is largely uncomplicated, allowing for clean, natural flavors. “I think the best food is the simplest,” he said. Spain will be open for lunch Monday through Friday and dinner hours daily. For more information, call (740) 548-6900.
