‘Opportunity to reinvent’
Domine: No rush to fill communications job By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers The New Albany-Plain Local School District will evaluate its communications director position after the July 29 departure of Jeff Warner, who accepted a similar job with Columbus City Schools. Superintendent April Domine said she wants to form a committee to study the position and determine if the job description needs to change.
“Any time you experience a change is an opportunity to reinvent,” Domine said. “That will be the case in this, as well. It’s not a position we will fill at this time. “I’d like to convene a communications advisory committee with community professionals and two board members to gather feedback from the staff and community, assessing the current needs both internally and externally, before identifying a vision for the future and setting goals.”
The district will seek to make an interim hire to keep the communications department operational, she said. Domine said Warner helped the district by leading the strategic planning process and helping to enhance current communication tools, such as the district’s website. “He contributed a great deal to our district in the two-plus years he was able to serve, and we’re grateful for his service and excited for him in his new opportunity,” she said.
Warner was hired at New Albany in 2009. Prior to that, he was a spokesman for Columbus City Schools. He said he is excited to work with Superintendent Gene Harris again. He said she is committed to the district and the communications department. “I really like that job,” Warner said. “It’s closer to home and it’s exciting and challenging.” In his new role, Warner will manage a department of four people and have more direct contact with the media.
“From a functional standpoint, the job is different,” he said. “There are more media relations. But the title is director of communications and media relations, so it’s the same.” Two other administrators have left the district since Domine took over in January. Human-resources director Cara Riddel took a job as superintendent of Westfall Local Schools in Williamsport and elementary 4-5 principal Chris BrigSee VACANCY, page A3
180-acre annexation would add to business park east
ABOUT TO MAKE A SPLASH

Pataskala resident Gabriel Pace, 6, and his brother, Luke, 4, jump to join their mother, Trew, in the pool at the Plain Township Aquatic Center in New Albany on Aug. 8. The pool is on pace for a possible record year, according to township officials. See story, page A3.
New Albany is trying to annex another 180 acres from Jersey Township into the city limits for business park east. City council approved an expedited annexation agreement Aug. 2. “We’ve been so successful in that area, we felt it was time to look at annexing more land south of state Route 161,” city manager Joseph Stefanov told city council at the Aug. 2 meeting. In the past two years, eight companies have landed in New Albany’s business park east, also known as the personal care and beauty campus. The business park east campus is north of state Route 161 and east of Beech Road. “We’ve been extremely successful recruiting businesses to central Ohio from all over the world in this new portion of the business park,” said Scott McAfee, the city’s communications director. “This has been good for New Albany and our entire region.” The current annexation request is for 180 acres in Jersey Township east of Beech Road, south of state Route 161 and south of the existing city boundaries. Jersey Township is in Licking County. Jersey Township trustees approved the annexation request at the township’s Aug. 1 meeting, Stefanov said. He said he attended the meeting and the vote was 2-0, with trustee Roy Bailey abstaining. The request will be filed as a Type 1 Expedited See ANNEXATION, page A4
Market Street at Johnstown Road
Key leaders mull ideas for health-focused ‘magnet’ Market Street Festival will replace annual FallFest event By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Some New Albany leaders are developing plans to fill the northwest corner of Market Street and Johnstown Road with retail and community space that will focus on health. City officials, the New Albany Co. and Healthy New Albany have all participated in the unnamed group. “Our basic goal was in three years to attract additional retail space there,” said New Albany
Mayor Nancy Ferguson. “To do that, you have to have a core use that acts as a magnet to attract people to that area.” Tom Rubey, development director for the New Albany Co., which owns the land, said the corner has space for a 60,000-square-foot building that could be split between retail and community uses. Because of New Albany’s active nature, with walkers, runners and cyclists flooding Market Square in the mornings and evenings, and the nonprofit group Healthy New Albany working on community health initiatives, Ferguson said, the
focus on health makes sense. Ferguson said the group is working with officials from Mount Carmel, OhioHealth, The Ohio State University Medical Center and Nationwide Children’s Hospital to determine how they could be involved and the programming they could provide. “Each has expressed an interest and an excitement for the vision of what it would be,” Rubey said.

Board holds closed session to review Domine By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers The New Albany-Plain Local school board was expected to review Superintendent April Domine’s performance to date during an executive session Aug. 8. No action was taken after the executive session because the board was in a work session rather than a regular meeting. Domine previ-
ously had referred to the session as a “review.” District officials were on an administrative retreat Aug. 9. Domine and school board members did not return callls and messages by ThisWeek’s press time. April Domine On July 25, Domine had presented the board with a list of goals and ob-
jectives that have been accomplished. Many were set before Domine joined the district in January. She is picking up where interim superintendent Bill Reimer left off, working to implement portions of the district’s strategic plan. Also Aug. 8, the monthly financial review and reporting committee meeting was canceled for the second consecutive month. The FRRC last met in June, when the roles of community members on the committee were redefined.
By LORI WINCE ThisWeek Community Newspapers The New Albany Community Events Board is sponsoring a new event this year. The Market Street Festival is slated for noon to 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday, Aug. 19 and 20, on Market Street. The celebration will replace the annual FallFest, which usually is in October, according to board member Greg Ecleberry. “We moved the date and event in order to have better weather and to serve as a kickoff to the beginning of the school year,” Ecleberry said. “The weather for fall events can be challenging.” In previous years, the fall festival was held in conjunction with the New Albany-Plain Local School District’s homecoming celebration. Ecleberry said the Market Street Festival still includes a schools angle because it will provide local families one last weekend to relax and have fun. See MARKET STREET FESTIVAL, page A2

LOCAL LEADERS Continued from page A1 Though a community group also has been working to develop plans for a recreation center, Ferguson said, residents have made it quite clear in a community survey two years ago that they would not support a tax increase to build a recreation center. She said the community aspect of any new building would have to be much smaller than a full recreation center, perhaps with fitness facilities and a community room where Healthy New Albany could provide programming and community outreach. “The community room could be used for different things,” Ferguson said. “Middle school students need a place to go after school, as does all of the community.” She said cyclists could use a place to cool down after a ride and a place to get healthy food, per-
haps from a restaurant that uses local ingredients in the commercial piece. Rubey said the group has investigated the possibility of incorporating bicycle racks, bicycle tire pumping stations and showers, for example. Ferguson said the plans are still in the discussion stage. She said the group is waiting to hear back from the hospitals on potential partnerships. After that, it would try to determine what the city and its partners could do. “They (the hospital organizations) are getting back to us on those partnerships the second week of September,” she said. Ferguson said Healthy New Albany also is an important component. The nonprofit group is responsible for establishing the farmers market and a community garden. lwince@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com
MARKET STREET FESTIVAL Continued from page A1 “It will be the last week before school for the community to get together and enjoy themselves,” he said. The Market Street Festival has been expanded from the FallFest; it will include more entertainment and more activities. Ecleberry said rides, bounce houses, games, food and beverages would be available. COSI will have kiosks on site from noon to 8 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 20. Live music will include Green Light Go and the John Schwab Party Band from 6:30 to 11 p.m. Aug. 19 and acoustic guitarist A.J.
Angelo and the Street Players from 6 to 11 p.m. Aug. 20. Ecleberry said the “Battle of the Bands” has been eliminated this year due to lack of entries and the expanded entertainment booking. The event will close Market Street from Johnstown Road to Keswick Commons from noon Thursday, Aug. 18, through 6 a.m. Sunday, Aug. 21. Ecleberry said residents could access businesses in Market Square and the Thursday evening farmers market from the northwest side of Market Square at Market Street, as well as Village Hall Road, which is accessible from John-
stown Road near the post office. For more information visit www.newalbanycommunityevents.com. In related news, New Albany City Council approved a request from the community events board Aug. 2 to waive the city fees of $3,621 associated with the event. Council also approved the board’s request to waive the $10,180.21 in fees associated with the Fourth of July celebration. The nonprofit community events board has organized celebrations in New Albany since 2004. lwince@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNews.com

Township pool on track for possible record year The Plain Township Aquatic Center is on pace to have its busiest year ever. An average of 500 people are visiting daily, as of July 31. That includes members, groups and walk-in visitors. “We’re on track to be ahead of previous years,” said Plain Township employee Eileen Hull. “It could possibly a record year.” Hull’s reports show the pool has had two record days this year thus far, with more than 1,500 guests showing up May 30 and July 27. More than 1,100 people have visited on 11 other days. More people are registered for swimming les-
sons this year, as well, with 278 enrolled in the program. The birthday party program at the pool also has continued to be a success, with 149 people using the picnic area this year, according to information from the township. The township also offered a new “Junior Lifeguard” program this year. It included a 10-hour class that trained 14- to15-year-olds to become lifeguards when they turn 16. Those who took the class could receive a discount on their certifications if they worked for Hastings Water Works, the company hired to manage the Plain Township Aquatic Center. — Lori Wince
The car show still could have a few surprises in store, as some of the event’s features cannot yet be revealed, Cross said.

VACANCY Continued from page A1 gs recently took over as regional director of schools for Columbus City Schools. When they left, Domine recommended new positions be created to replace them rather than filling their old roles. In Riddel’s case, the district created an interim position to run the human-resources department as it searches for a candidate for the newly created position of “chief of innovation, improvement and human capital.” The new employee would report directly to Domine and would be in charge of the principals, the director of teaching and learning, the special education supervisor, the director of communications and would share administration of the technology coordinator with the director of operations. The school
board recently approved the new position and it is being advertised. As for Briggs’ departure, Domine proposed that the school board create a position of “head principal” at the 2-5 elementary building. The building would also have two “support principals,” who would specialize in different areas of education while helping to oversee the students in the building. The board has not yet voted on the position of head principal. Madeline Partlow, the former director of teaching and learning, was recently appointed to replace Briggs as 4-5 principal, and Randy Pfeiffer, the assessment coordinator and curriculum specialist, was named interim director of teaching and learning. Pfeiffer has 30 years of experience in education and has been with the district since 2001. Meanwhile, the position of director of teaching and
learning is being advertised. In the case of each departure, Domine said, the employees took roles that will advance their careers. “We always are interested in encouraging people to pursue career goals and opportunities,” she said. That is what happened with “Cara taking her first superintendent’s job, Chris taking his first director’s role and Jeff returning to Columbus with an entire department to lead. We hope always to be an environment where people will feel they can pursue their career goals and we will support them along the way.” Domine said she does not anticipate any other transitions in the near future. lwince@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekNes.com

For a good portion of my life, I shared the perspective of those who rail against God for allowing pain. I could find no way to rationalize a world as toxic as this one. As I visited people whose pain far exceeded my own, though, I was surprised by its effects. Suffering seemed as likely to reinforce faith as to sow doubt.

August 10, 2009 it was discovered that Sam had bone cancer. After a courageous battle against the cancer that included an amputation of one leg, surgery on the other leg, removal of cancer from both of his lungs, as well as chemotherapy, Sam’s body could endure no more. After returning from his Make a Wish trip to Disney World in July 2010, it was discovered that the cancer was growing rapidly in too many places to treat. He went home from Nationwide Children’s Hospital to be with his mother and father to live the last of his days on Earth. While Sam’s body could no longer fight, his mind could. Sam did not want to die. His family and friends did not want him to die…But God had a different plan. During his time in hospice care, surrounded by those who loved him best, Sam mostly came to accept that he would not continue life among us. His hope laid in the knowledge that Jesus and his beloved grandfather Greg, his great grandmothers Martha and Kathryn were waiting for him in Heaven.
He has hurt and bled and cried and suffered. He has dignified for all time those who suffer, by sharing their pain. But one day He will gather the armies of heaven and will unleash them against the enemies of God. The world will see one last terrifying moment of suffering before the full victory is ushered in. Then God will create for us a new, incredible world. And pain will be no more (Rev. 19:11–22:6). He left His Father’s throne above, So free, so infinite His grace! Emptied Himself of all but love, And bled for Adam’s helpless race. —Wesley Pain will either turn us against God or draw us to Him. _____________________________________________ O Death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory? __1 Corinthians 15:55
Sam took comfort in the knowledge that God does not count time as we do, and that he would see his family again “in a blink of an eye.”

Sam and his family believed that God could and would heal him from the cancer. The problem for many was that God did not heal Sam the way they wanted Him to. However, even though Sam’s story did not end as his friends and family wanted, it did end as God desired. While his mom, dad, sisters, all his family and friends miss Sam, many believe that Sam is with Jesus – hanging out, having fun on 2 good legs, and waiting for us to join him. This may seem like foolishness, but God’s plans and our human plans are so very different. God is trustworthy all the time…despite the situation.
If you are struggling and need hope – turn to Jesus...The Christ. He will never turn you away. For more information on turning to Jesus for help, contact the Pastoral Staff at Westerville Christian Church at 614-891-6842 / www.loveGod-lovepeople.org

ANNEXATION Continued from page A1 Annexation, which takes less time than a normal annexation, according to information from the state. It requires 100 percent of the property owners to agree on the annexation and must be approved by the township and New Albany before going to the Licking County commissioners. McAfee said the city currently is waiting on paperwork to be signed by Jersey Township. Once the paperwork is received, the city expects to file the annexation petition within the next two weeks. According to state guidelines, after the petition is filed, the Licking County commissioners must approve it at their next regular meeting. No public hearing is required, according to the guidelines. If commissioners approve the petition, city council will go through a 60-day waiting period before it can vote to accept the petition, according to McAfee. Council usually hears two readings of an ordinance before passage. Finally, the annexation would not take effect until 30 days after council passed the legislation accepting the petition. The 180-acre annexation would build on previous annexations that began in 2001 and gained New Albany 1,300 acres in Licking County on the north and south sides of 161 and east of Beech Road. Most of the 1,300 acres are owned by the New Albany Co. (NACo), the city’s largest developer. Tom Rubey, NACo development director, said the company has options to purchase the land it doesn’t own within the boundaries of the annexation request. NACo owns land to the north and south of the 180-acre tract and decided to acquire the parcels to help meet the market demand, he said. “It is a surprise to many, but a lot of the folks looking to locate in New Albany are looking for large parcels,” he said. “They want to do a campus, not just simply build on a parcel of 20 or 30 acres. They want a larger parcel they can control.” He mentioned Abercrombie & Fitch’s campus as an example. New Albany has revenue-sharing agreements in place for all the land in Licking County, which provides the local school districts with revenue from any developments. The 180 acres from Jer-

sey Township are in the Licking Heights school district. Previous agreements use the 30 cents of each dollar of income-tax revenue generated to pay off infrastructure debt. The remaining 70 cents are divided evently between the city and school district. Stefanov said the city’s service department would take care of Beech Road along the annexed properties, removing snow and maintaining the roads. Jennifer Chrysler, New Albany community development director, said the personal care and beauty campus could be the only one of its kind that will include companies that take an idea, create a product from that idea and then produce it and ship it into the market. Business park east also has credits available for innovative and environmentally friendly building practices, making it one of central Ohio’s only “all-green” business campuses, Chrysler said. The eight companies that currently are part of the campus are: • Accel Inc., which is building a 500,000-square-foot facility to consolidate its operations from offices in Lewis Center and a distribution center in Whitehall. Accel “develops innovative packaging solutions” and works with clients on “merchandising, package engineering, contract manufacturing, inventory control, logistics, and marketing and/or promotions,” according to its website. The $20-million project is expected to create 25 jobs and retain 206 positions,” according to the Ohio Department of Development. • Alene Candles, based in Milford, N.H., is moving into a 300,000-square-foot speculative production facility built by the Pizutti Cos. Alene Candles manufactures custom-designed, fragranced candles, according to its website. The estimated $8.2-million project is expected to create 135 jobs, according to information from the state. • Anomatic, which is building a 75,000-square-foot production facility. Anomatic is based in Newark, where its offices will remain, and has production facilities in Newark, Naugatuk, Conn., and China. The company developed an anodizing system in 1967 and manufactures colored metal lids for bottles. Anodizing is “an electrochemical process that converts the metal surface into a decorative, durable, corrosion-resistant, anodic oxide finish,” ac-

cording to the website of the Aluminum Anodizers Council. Anomatic is investing $8.4 million in “fixed assets, including machinery and equipment,” and will create185 new jobs with the project, according to information from the state. • Axium Plastics, based in Mississauga, Ontario, which has planned a 110,000-square-foot facility. Axium manufactures plastic containers ranging in size from a half-ounce to 40 ounces for the food, personal care, health-care and automotive industries, according to its website. The $16.2million project would create 165 jobs, according to information from the state. • The Jeyes Group is expected to locate in the rest of the building being built by Pizutti Cos., Rubey said. Jeyes “manufactures, markets, sells and distributes household cleaning and home-fragrance products in 60 countries,” according to the company’s website. No further information was available about the Jeyes project at ThisWeek’s press time. • The Knowlton Development Corp., which is building a 250,000-square-foot manufacturing and research facility. The Knowlton Development Corp. has several companies that manufacture personal-care and beauty products. Its $55-million project is expected to create 200 jobs, according to information from the state. • Sonoco Plastics, which plans to build a 120,000-square-foot production facility. Sonoco Plastics was founded in 1899 and manufactures industrial and consumer products. It provides packaging services from 300 locations in 85 countries, according to the information from the state. The company’s project would have” a capital investment of $14.6 million” and create 60 new jobs, according to city council’s legislative report for the Aug. 2 meeting. The $14.6-million project will create 60 new employees, according to the city’s information. • Vee Pak, which is building a 105,000-square-foot production facility. Vee Pak develops personal-care and beauty products. Its $11.5-million project is expected to create 120 jobs, according to information from the state.

ARB approves signs for three local businesses The New Albany Architectural Review Board (ARB) approved three sign requests at its Aug. 8 meeting. The New Albany United Methodist Church is installing two signs with dual posts on each end of the east side of Third Street. The new signs must have permanent lettering that includes New Albany United Methodist as the primary listing. The signs must not be in the right of way and must have consistent fonts and sizes. The church also received a
waiver for having three signs, as opposed to two. The city allows one sign per street entrance. The church’s entrance is off Third Street, but it has frontage on Third Street, East Main Street and East Dublin-Granville Street. The church had installed a temporary sign after its main one was destroyed in an auto accident. The new signs will replace the temporary sign. Forward Financial Group also received permission to install a new sign at 20 N. High Street. The ARB had to review the ap-
plication because the existing signage — a wall sign that will be replaced by the new — must be changed. The Main Street Deli at 249 E. Main St. received approval for a hanging sign that would be more than seven feet off the ground in a space left of the entrance that previously was designated for signage. The building owner was cited for having an improper ground sign earlier this year. The sign approved Aug. 8 will replace that sign. — Lori Wince

The Columbus Jazz Or-

son of JazZoo concerts at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium Friday, Aug. 12, with “Elvis, The Beatles & Beyond.” These pillars of rock n’ roll were greatly influenced by jazz and the blues, plus the CJO should have some killer arrangements lined up for this show. Joining in on the fun are guitarist Dan Faehnle of Pink Martini and Diana Krall fame and singer Jonathan Elliott of the Columbus band, The Floorwalkers. Tickets are $27-$15 and include Zoo admission. Call (614) 724-3485 or call the Jazz Arts Group about table reservations at (614) 294-5200.

3 Tommy & the High Pilots evoke the spirit of the history of American rock n’ roll songwriting, drawing inspiration from any number of that canon’s royalty — Paul Simon, Bruce Springsteen, Jeff Buckley, Jackson Browne, Buddy Holly, Lindsey Buckingham, all lend a flavor to the young SoCal quartet’s musical recipe of alternately rollicking and melancholy rock n’ roll. Tommy and The High Pilots, with openers Stamps and Heypenny, will play The Basement Sunday,Aug. 14. Tickets are $7/$9. Call 1-800-7453000.
Festival Latino, now in its 16th year, returns to the downtown Columbus riverfront Saturday and Sunday, Aug. 13-14. The Beat is, of course, most concerned with the music, which is going to be fun. Headliners include 24 Horas (Saturday) and Tito Rojas with the Sammy DeLeon Orchestra (Sunday). A host of local and regional acts rounds out the bill. Originally, the band’s name Art, food and culture — plenty of 4 was Alice Cooper, but eventudance — are also featured. Special attention should be paid to “Salsa ally, the puppet master of ’70s metal King of Ohio” Carlos Rubio and his theater of the macabre took the name for himself.

Other performers include Columbus Sweet Adelines Chorus, 2008 international champion quartet OC Times, 2010 Sweet Adelines international champion quartet Maxx Factor and a special appearance by the reigning international collegiate quartet champion Prestige, a group formed while its members were student singers attending the camp and continues now at Bowling Green State University.

Chile Verde Café serves familiar fare with a special twist There’s a combo platter of reasons why El Cheapo, order-bynumbers, Mexican-ish restaurants are plentiful and popular in Columbus. Let’s face it: Dining at these generally fun margarita-hustling and “enchirito”-slinging casas is like party-crashing your way into an instant fiesta. Didn’t eat much lunch today? Then dig into free chips and salsa; they’ll practically arrive at your table simultaneously with you. Boss acting like a jackwagon again? Make that a grande margarita. Need a burrito-load of feelgood food? Cue the zesty meat, melting cheese and gooey beans. Yep, this crowd-pleasing formula works — thus all the busy and successful El Restaurante clones. Too bad there aren’t more places like Chile Verde instead. Semi-recently (and significantly) enlarged and packing in loyal reg-
MENU by G. A. BENTON ulars for around two decades, the much-beloved Chile Verde fulfills all those above obligations while separating itself from the peso-a-dozen competition. First of all, rather than risibly making bogus claims of Mexican authenticity, Chile Verde wears its gringo-ness on its salsa-splattered sleeves. See, this non-chain joint goes its own southwestern way, whipping up familiar yet distinct (and quite spicy) food it proudly refers to as “the cuisine of New Mexico.” So expect the usual taco, enchilada and chile relleno-type fare to be served with a special twist, and expect a few unexpected dishes, too. Yeah, everything’s a little better — and/or a bit different — at

Chile Verde’s cheery and charming dining rooms also clue you in to its sunny and noncookie-cutter “Land of Enchantment” personality.

This includes the margaritas. For instance, you can currently, a great little local art taste actual fresh limejuice (a rar- exhibit of brashly painted Mexi-

Food-wise, no visit to Chile Verde is complete for me without a big bowl of the terrific Green Chile Stew ($5.50). Topped with cheese and tasting tangy, smoky and fiercely spicy, it’s filled with chunks of beef, potatoes, beans and carrots and is a must. Also quite spicy but much lighter was an inspired cucumber Gazpacho ($5). A recurring special, it’s cumin-kissed, pulpy, aggressively tart and thoroughly refreshing. Another frequent feature is the very fine fish taco. Generous hunks of mahi mahi were not battered and deep-fried but rubbed with a jerk-like spice mix and skillet-seared for a much lighter preparation.

tortillas (two Blue Corn Enchiladas with two sides are $12). Here, you can make neat sauceand-meat combinations like shredded beef with the killer chile verde or mushroom merlot sauces; chunky chicken with a zingy chile rojo (spicy roasted red chiles enriched with chicken stock) or salsalike ranchero sauces. Ordering the Combo Plato dinner affords tons of mix-and-match options (three mains, two sides for $13). You could choose a very good chile relleno properly leavened with egg whites to go with a masa-intense tamale and a meaty fajita taco. As for sides, I’d avoid the boring rice and go with the hearty, dip-like black beans and unusual, dense skin-on smashed potatoes with a hint of cinnamon.
Policy banning children uinder 6 not embraced locally A Pittsburgh-area restaurateur’s decision to ban children younger than 6 has drawn varied reactions from local restaurateurs and diners. Mike Vuick instituted the mandate last month at his restaurant, McDains Restaurant & Golf Center in suburban Monroeville, saying it was not a place for young kids. He said he was also tired of fighting with parents who couldn’t control their young ones. But many central Ohio restaurant owners don’t seem likely to embrace that edict any time soon. David Mor, owner of Olive Tree Mediterranean Café in Hilliard, said chil-
dren come with the territory. “That’s my biggest joy — kids at this age starting healthy eating habits,” he said. “A lot of parents, they don’t want kids eating ketchup and fries. Those young working couples, where can they go?” Carla Piolata said very few families bring young children to her restaurant, Cibo, an upscale Italian restaurant in Upper Arlington. “But the ones we get, they are treated very well,” she said. Still, both restaurateurs acknowledge that unruly behavior will not be tolerated. “We expect the parents to control their
kids,” Mor said. “My concern is it’s not only unfair to the other diners but it’s a liability issue.” Even the tony Refectory on the Northwest Side has experienced its occasional brush with out-of-control children, owner Kamal Boulos said. That presents a dicey situation for restaurant managers. “If the parents aren’t sensitive to the actions of their children, there’s really no easy way or gracious way you can help them to see that without offending them,” he said. Reached last week by phone, Vuick said the response has been overwhelmingly positive. Lately, emails have been 20-1 in favor of the policy, he said. Patrons have been relaying their own stories about unruly conduct by children and lack of discipline from parents. “There’s a lot of frustration and disgust out there toward this kind of behavior,” he said. He said he didn’t do it for the publicity. But patrons have come from as far as Columbus and Cleveland to show their support. “I thought this would pass,” he said. “I was wrong.” Since the policy was instituted July 16, receipts are up 20 percent, despite threats of boycotts, he said. So far, nobody has tried to challenge the policy in person, so he hasn’t had to turn anybody away. Local diner Geoffrey Matwich, who
has a 2-year-old, said certain dining experiences are good for both parents and children, but not all venues are appropriate. “As a parent who still enjoys going www.ThisWeekNews.com/foodandwine First Draft out to nice restaurant every once in awhile without my child, I find it not columnist Michael in the best interest of the child to put Paull recommends them in an environment where you Mad Hatter’s farmexpect them to sit and be quiet for house IPA, a truly long periods of time,” he said. “You unique drink for a summer wouldn’t take your child to the art long gallery or a symphony concert. Why evening. Michael Paull would you take them to a high-end Recipe of the week restaurant setting?” Sue Bellan, another local diner who doesn’t have children, said she understands the struggle with the issue. “I can certainly appreciate some of the higher-end restaurants having a policy of that nature so that they can offer a certain atmosphere in their restaurants, as that is what the majority of their clientele are paying for,” Bellan said. “However, on the flip side, if you are going to a mid-scale or family restaurant, you should expect that there will be families there with young children and not be upset with them acting up a bit, as children Chocolate torte with fresh whipped do.” David Kincheloe, a restaurant con- cream, courtesy of Bill Glover of Sage sultant in Golden, Colo., said bans on American Bistro. some types of behavior — certain attire, cell phones and smoking, to name centage of customers. a few —already exist in some restau“I think it potentially is a short-term rants.

Race for postseason begins opening week By JARROD ULREY ThisWeek Community Newspapers
A little more than two weeks remain before the first official snaps are taken on central Ohio high school football fields. For traditional playoff contenders, the first regular-season game begins a journey that includes the expectation that it might take a dozen games or more before true satisfaction comes. The teams in the middle, meanwhile, enter the season with a different kind of anxiousness.
One team from Division I, Region 3 — Lancaster — went 7-3 and failed to make the playoffs last year. There were seven other teams in the region that went 5-5 or 6-4 and had their seasons end before the postseason. For programs such as Gahanna and Upper Arlington where long playoff runs have come in the recent past, the need to move back into the postseason race is one that can be a consuming desire. Gahanna has missed the playoffs the past three seasons after qualifying for the postseason five of the previous seven seasons. Upper Arlington
has missed the postseason the past two years after making the playoffs nine of the previous 12 years. The Golden Bears won the Division I state title in 2000. “Obviously, winning football teams are expected at Gahanna Lincoln,” Lions coach John Snoad said. “We’ve been a .500 team, and that’s not acceptable in our community. They understand there’s a great tradition with great playoff teams. Last year, we were literally three points away from being 7-3 and the eighth seed. “A good team has good discipline.
The key here is if we take care of business in key plays. Those are the things that separate the fine line between being 5-5 and being 7-3 or 8-2. We have some tremendous talent, and now we have to work very hard to get strong in the weight room and get out and be disciplined.” Others in Region 3 left on the outside a year ago when each went 6-4 were Pickerington North, Groveport, Olentangy Liberty and Mount Vernon. One school in particular that hopes failing to make the postseason won’t become a habit is Liberty, which had
made six consecutive postseason appearances before last season. Olentangy, Dublin Jerome, Dublin Scioto, Olentangy Orange and Watkins Memorial all were 6-4 but were left on the outside of the Division II, Region 7 playoffs a year ago. Among the others hoping to be breakout teams this year are Granville and Licking Heights, both of which went 7-3 last year but failed to make the Division III, Region 11 playoffs. •NEW LEADERS — There were See FOOTBALL, page B2
Commentary
Athletes admire, inspired by heroes There are youngsters in central Ohio who want to develop into the athlete and person that the high school students writing in my summer series are today. These bowlers, football players, golfers, soccer players, track athletes and wrestlers are held in the highest LARRY esteem by LARSON younger athletes who know their accomplishments. So, who are the heroes for these role models? Let’s find out. Jimmy Gammill, New Albany, football: “I admire (NFL quarterback) Tim Tebow because he is a Christian athlete and strong in his faith. He never let anybody tell him he couldn’t achieve what he wanted to and he worked hard to get what he wanted.” Jake Blankenship, Gahanna, pole vault: “My hero is (pole vaulter) Tim Mack. I have met him a couple of times and he has been someone who I have admired for a while. I like the way he jumps and the way he teaches.” Michela Paradiso, Upper Arlington, soccer and basketball: “My biggest role model is my older sister, Domini. She is a great human being who has great morals and is always willing to help others and myself. I love her so much and she has helped me get through some truly tough times.” Austin Cuervo, St. Charles, golf: “My role model is my father because he is a very dedicated man and has always been my idol.” Chase Delande, Hilliard Davidson, football and wrestling: “My hero is my father, Dave Delande. He is always there for me, gives me great advice as well as good coaching tips.” Mary Wells, Westerville Central, bowling: “My top hero or role model is (professional bowler) Kelly Kulick because she was the first woman to win the USBC Tournament of Champions.” Faith Washington, Reynoldsburg, track: “My best hero? This year I don’t have a best. So many people have been the light when I needed one with encouragement and support. They all are like family in shining armor.” Napoleon Bell, Hartley, football and wrestling: “My hero is God. It is sacrifice and love for others that can be translated into the love you must have for your teammates and the selflessness you must have on the field.” Morgan Ransom, Columbus Academy, golf: “My grandparents are my heroes. They have always supported me in golf and in life and I have learned so much from them.” Next week, the student-athletes conclude their summer se-

Hilliard Davidson’s Bo Delande looks to elude a Mentor defender during the Wildcats’ 36-35 double-overtime victory in the Division I state championship game on Dec. 2, 2006, at Fawcett Stadium in Canton. Delande scored all five touchdowns for the Wildcats and ran for the decisive two-point conversion.

Canal Winchester to leave MSL for OCC in ’13 By BRAD EMERINE ThisWeek Community Newspapers
Canal Winchester High School is expected to be approved as a new member of the Ohio Capital Conference when the Executive Committee of Principals meets on Sept. 19. Canal Winchester would replace Watkins Memorial in the 32-team league beginning with the 2013-14 school year. Watkins Memorial is joining the new Licking County League, which will begin operations that same school year. “This is an exciting time for us and a big change after being a member of the See LARSON, page B3 Mid-State League since 1966,” Canal Win-
chester athletics director Kent Riggs said. “We were comfortable and had great relationships in the MSL. “One of the biggest factors in our switch is that we are one of only two (schools) in the MSL that compete in Division I in most sports. If we’re going to compete in Division I in the postseason tournaments, it would be to our benefit to play Division I schools during the regular seasons.” The OCC Alignment and Expansion Committee made its recommendation after researching and visiting roughly a dozen schools that filed applications. According to OCC Commissioner Dave Cecutti, in addition to Canal Winches-
ter, among those to apply were MSL members Bexley, Grandview, Teays Valley and Whitehall, as well as Chillicothe, Marion Harding, Jonathan Alder and Logan. “I applaud the Alignment and Expansion Committee for their work the past six to eight months, and it was a tough process,” Cecutti said. “They jumped hurdles and conducted studies to determine which school would fit best. “When we received all those applications, it also became apparent that we should take a look at a possible fifth division within our league. We’ll continue to look at that and it might be some-
thing we need to look at again somewhere down the road.” Canal Winchester will become the first new member of the OCC since Hilliard Bradley opened in 2008-09. Canal Winchester offers 25 sports, one of several criteria that the OCC noted. “There was no one factor any more important than another, but rather the totality of items that led the committee to recommend Canal Winchester,” Cecutti said. “We believe that academic integrity, competitive balance and cultural compatibility all played a factor. We looked at enrollment, population See OCC, page B2

Men’s Basketball
Area players contribute to Wooster’s success By PAUL BATTERSON ThisWeek Community Newspapers
One of the things that attracted Justin Hallowell to play for the College of Wooster’s men’s basketball team was the Scots’ winning tradition. Wooster had the best winning percentage of any Division III team in the 2000s and made runs to a national semifinal in 2003 and 2007. But according to Hallowell, the Scots took the next step after Nathan Balch transferred to Wooster from the University of Missouri-Kansas City before the 2008-09 season. “Nathan and I had played against each other a couple of times in high school,” said Hallowell, a 2008 Thomas Worthington High School graduate. “When I heard he was transferring here, I immediately got in touch with him. We talked a lot during the summer (of 2008). When he got to school, it was like we had been playing together for a year already.” Hallowell and Balch, a 2007 Olentangy graduate, joined a contingent of central Ohio players that helped lead Wooster to a 31-3 record last season. The Scots lost to the University of St. Thomas (St. Paul, Minn.) 78-54 in their first appearance in the Division III national championship game on March 19 in Salem, Va. Balch (12.1 points, 3.4 rebounds), Hallowell (11.9 points, 6.1 rebounds) and 2007 St. Charles graduate Bryan Wickliffe (10.1 points, 6.4 rebounds) were among the Scots’ top four scorers. Ian Franks led the team in scoring, averaging 18.3 points. Balch, a 6-foot-1 guard who finished his college career tied for 22nd on Wooster’s all-time scoring list in three seasons with the program with 1,136 points, was named to the National Association of Basketball Coaches Honors Court for his work in the classroom and made first-team all-NCAC. Wickliffe, a 6-5 center who finished as Wooster’s 10th-leading rebounder (754) and 15th-leading scorer (1,193 points), and Hallowell, a 6-7 forward, were named second-team all-NCAC. Forward Mike Evans, a 2008 Pickerington North graduate, and guards Doug Thorpe, a 2010 Eastmoor Academy graduate, and Bryce Agler, a 2010 Olentangy Orange graduate, played supporting roles last season. “Last season was everything I hoped for,” said Balch, who was team captain. “Ever since I was a little kid, I dreamed of playing in the national championship game. It was a great feeling to actually live that out.” Balch, who averaged 2.8 points in

his one season with UMKC, didn’t like his role with the Kangaroos, who finished 11-21 that season. “I didn’t want to be one of these guys who came off the bench and was a fillin player,” he said. “I wanted to be a major contributor to the team with a winning tradition.” After talking with Wickliffe during a visit to Wooster, Balch knew he had found where he wanted to be. Being part of a group of Columbus players made Balch feel at home at Wooster. “When I went UMKC, I didn’t have anything in common with my teammates,” he said. “We played against similar teams, so it was fun to talk about the experiences we had. It was nice to have (being from Columbus) in common.” None of the six area players on Wooster’s roster last season had expe-
rienced anything like the Scots’ run to the championship game. Only Thorpe, who was on Eastmoor’s team that lost to Toledo Libbey 59-50 in a 2008 regional semifinal, had been on a district championship team in high school. Wooster, which had finished 25-6 overall in the 2009-10 season after losing 75-68 to Guilford Technical Community College (Jamestown, N.C.), in the third round of the national tournament, opened last season by winning its first 20 games. The Scots were ranked first in the nation before losing to Wabash College (Crawfordsville, Ind.) 69-68 on Feb. 5. Seven days later, they lost to Wittenberg 76-72. Hallowell called the two-game losing streak the turning point of the season. “A lot of our fans started thinking instead of getting better throughout the

Since Perry made his commitment in June 2010, the Buckeyes have added DeSales running back Warren Ball, Pickerington Central offensive lineman Jacoby Boren, Upper Arlington wide receiver Frank Epitropolous, Lancaster linebacker Luke Roberts and Pickerington North offensive lineman Pat Elflein from central Ohio. Other area players who have made a verbal commitment include Olentangy offensive lineman Kenton Playko (Northwestern), Jerome wide receiver Cameron Wilson (Iowa), Pickerington Central linebacker Jake Kincaid (Kent State), Pickerington Central defensive back Jason O’Bryan (Kent State), Upper Arlington offensive lineman James Henry (Toledo), Marysville tight end Craig Runyan (Toledo) and Lancaster defensive lineman Aaron Woosley (Ball State).

loss for Wooster since the Scots lost to Gannon University (Erie, Pa.) 9553 on Nov. 23, 1999. It also marked Wooster’s widest margin of defeat at home since a 110-77 loss to Ohio Wesleyan on Jan. 14, 1987. “It was awful,” Balch said. “They must be our kryptonite or something. As we started to see it slip away from us, it really hurt us. We were having such a fun season and to have it come to an end like that was just awful.” Hallowell said it was days after the loss in the national championship game before he realized what the Scots had accomplished. “There was definitely a sense of disappointment walking off the court,” he said. “After talking with my friends and family, I realized how special of a season that was. It was definitely the best year of my life and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.” pbatterson@thisweeknews.com www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

several coaching changes among central Ohio’s programs during the offseason, and three of them have new coaches named White. Buddy White has taken over Reynoldsburg’s program after previously serving as an assistant with the Raiders. Last year, he was an assistant at Hartley, which won the Division IV state championship. Trevor White is Brookhaven’s new coach. He is a former Bearcats and Marion-Franklin assistant who will try to return Brookhaven to its past success after a 5-5 season last fall. “I was pretty familiar with a lot of the guys and we’ve been working with a lot of them since January,” Trevor White said. “It’s exciting to do football pretty soon. Everybody really wants to move forward, and I’m pretty excited for the seniors.” The other new “White” is Westland’s Steve White, who is a former Grove City assistant. “As a first-year coach, it’s a chance to finally get a stamp on things,” Steve White said. “I’ve worked for three different guys and this is a chance to do some things from my own standpoint.” Other new coaches in central Ohio include Lewis Carter at Columbus East, Shawn Hinkle at Canal Winchester, Mike LoParo at Hilliard Bradley, Tom Roberts at Northridge and Zebb Schroeder at Delaware. Jim Collis will be coaching Columbus Academy after coach Mark Barren died June 9 following a heart attack. Collis coached the Vikings from 1996-2006, and they won the Division V state title in 2003. •SWITCHING DIVISIONS — Several central Ohio teams have changed divisions for the 2011 and 2012 seasons. julrey@thisweeknews.com Moving up from Division II to Division I are www.ThisWeekSPORTS.com

season we were starting to get worse,” he said. “(Coach Steve Moore) told us, ‘Look guys, I think we’re playing good basketball right now. I wouldn’t sweat it. We’re playing well and I think we can do big things in the tournament.’ That helped everyone’s morale and made us play better and better.” The Scots won their next 10 games, including a 47-45 win over Manchester Community College (Manchester, N.H.) in the second round of the national tournament on March 5 and a 73-71 win over Williams College (Williamstown, Mass.) on March 18. However, in the national title game, St. Thomas built a 46-26 lead midway through the second half. Wooster went on a 10-0 run, which included a 3-pointer by Balch, to cut St. Thomas’ lead in half but could get no closer. It was the second time in two years that St. Thomas had routed Wooster, as the Scots lost to the Tommies 8453 at home on Nov. 21, 2009. The 31point margin of defeat was the worst

Chillicothe, Fairfield Christian, Grove City Christian, Logan and Worthington Christian have shown interest in joining the MSL, which is discussing a two- or three-division, 18-team format. Another option is adding at least five teams and having three divisions. “The LCL impacted the MSL, but we know the MSL will recover and be as strong as it was before,” Riggs said. “Change is difficult, but this move should
help our student-athletes. They need to be prepared for the postseason by playing bigger schools in the regular season. This is the right move at the right time.

In early July, the Ohio Dragons 18-and-under fastpitch travel softball team wasn’t sure if it was going to follow up on a trip it had earned in midJune. “We qualified for the USSSA Eastern Regional World Series in the second week of June by finishing second in a qualifier in Beavercreek,” coach Ken Seidel said. “But we reached a point where we talked about not going because we weren’t playing to our ability and it could be a waste of time and money.” The team started to play better, however, and made the decision to compete in the World Series, which was July 25-30 in Salisbury, Md. The Dragons had a 17-18 record before leaving but went 7-1-1 to win the double-elimination tournament, which featured 27 teams from seven states. “The girls went crazy on the field when it was over,” said Seidel, who was assisted by Warren Shoff. “It was a special moment for us. We stayed the night (July 30) after we won and I woke up the next morning wondering if it was all a dream. But then I looked over and saw the trophy. “(The championship) proved what we knew all along, that the team we had was capable of big things if they played to their abilities. I’m not sure the girls knew it or believed it, but we could tell that if they put it all together, this was a special group.” Even more special is that everyone on the roster is eligible to return next season. “In about one month, we went from underachieving and wondering what will happen next year to now, where all the girls are excited and wanted the season to continue,” Seidel said.

DELANDE Continued from page B1 first down at the Mentor 10-yard line and fumbled at the 6. Mentor’s Danny Kelley appeared to recover at the 1, but the ball squirted loose and Davidson lineman Mike Saul recovered at the 3. Delande scored on the next play, making it 35-34. Then, during a pair of timeouts by the Wildcats, kicker Colby Catlett ran on and then off the field. Catlett actually was lined up for the extrapoint attempt that coach Brian White later admitted would have been a fake before the second timeout was called. After the second timeout, White opted to put his offense on the field and give the ball to Delande. “None of us coaches had any idea during the course of the game that Bo had scored one, two, three, four or five touchdowns,” White said. “It’s not like we purposely were trying to get him to score touchdowns. We were running our offense. The thing that gets lost a little bit — and I believe Bo would be the first to admit this — is the offensive line we had that year was pretty special.” A preferred walk-on at Ohio State in 2007 who is preparing for his senior season, Delande finished the 2006 season with a program-record 2,208 yards rushing and 23 touchdowns on 398 carries. He was named first-team all-OCC-Buckeye Division and all-district and special mention all-state. “Bo has been a huge part of our offense this year,” White said during the 2006 season. “He isn’t necessarily the fastest kid on the field. He normally isn’t the biggest kid, isn’t the strongest kid, but I find it hard to believe there’s too many kids tougher than him that are on the field when we’re playing. “He never falls backward, he’s always falling forward. He gets positive yardage.” Davidson rushed for 345 yards
on 72 carries against Mentor, outmatching the Cardinals’ no-huddle offense that passed for 327 yards. “That had to be the most ridiculous ending to a game, let alone a season, that I can remember,” said Dietz, who is entering his senior year at the Air Force Academy. “Everything fell into place.” “It was a pretty special night for everybody in Hilliard,” White said. “It was one of those things that you never expect to happen and when it happens I don’t know if you really know how to react to it. Everybody tells you enjoy the moment, but at that time you’re so concentrated on what you’re trying to accomplish, I don’t know that you can really enjoy it. We’ve certainly looked back upon it with some fond memories since then.” Delande, who had rushed for 1,304 and nine touchdowns as a junior at Davidson, is the oldest of three brothers who have
excelled athletically for the Wildcats. Spencer Delande was a key member of the football team when it won the 2009 state championship by defeating Cleveland Glenville 16-15 in the Division I final.

The Columbus Jazz Or-
1 chestra wraps up its sixth sea-
son of JazZoo concerts at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium Friday, Aug. 12, with “Elvis, The Beatles & Beyond.” These pillars of rock n’ roll were greatly influenced by jazz and the blues, plus the CJO should have some killer arrangements lined up for this show. Joining in on the fun are guitarist Dan Faehnle of Pink Martini and Diana Krall fame and singer Jonathan Elliott of the Columbus band, The Floorwalkers. Tickets are $27-$15 and include Zoo admission. Call (614) 724-3485 or call the Jazz Arts Group about table reservations at (614) 294-5200.
Tommy & the High Pilots
Salsamante Dance Academy, who will offer a demonstration and group lesson at 3:45 p.m. Sunday. (If he can teach The Beat to salsa, he can teach you.) Admission is free. Visit www.FestivalLatino.net.
3 Tommy & the High Pilots evoke the spirit of the history of American rock n’ roll songwriting, drawing inspiration from any number of that canon’s royalty — Paul Simon, Bruce Springsteen, Jeff Buckley, Jackson Browne, Buddy Holly, Lindsey Buckingham, all lend a flavor to the young SoCal quartet’s musical recipe of alternately rollicking and melancholy rock n’ roll. Tommy and The High Pilots, with openers Stamps and Heypenny, will play The Basement Sunday,Aug. 14. Tickets are $7/$9. Call 1-800-7453000.
Festival Latino, now in its 16th year, returns to the downtown Columbus riverfront Saturday and Sunday, Aug. 13-14. The Beat is, of course, most concerned with the music, which is going to be fun. Headliners include 24 Horas (Saturday) and Tito Rojas with the Sammy DeLeon Orchestra (Sunday). A host of local and regional acts rounds out the bill. Originally, the band’s name Art, food and culture — plenty of 4 was Alice Cooper, but eventudance — are also featured. Special attention should be paid to “Salsa ally, the puppet master of ’70s metal King of Ohio” Carlos Rubio and his theater of the macabre took the name for himself. In an interview with The Beat some years back, the middle-aged rocker was fully at ease referring to Alice Cooper as a separate entity from himself, a caricature both 24 Horas

fully embodied and fully transparent. Cooper still brings it heavy, and has a brand-new, not-yet-released album due out Sept. 13 — Welcome 2 My Nightmare — to prove it. He will play Lifestyle Communities Pavilion Wednesday, Aug. 17. Tickets are $27/$30. Call 1-800-745-3000. BONUS: More than 300 young singers will participate in the 17th annual Harmony Camp sponsored by the Singing Buckeyes Barbershop Chorus Aug. 10-13. The camp culminates with a public performance by the men’s and women’s choruses from among the attendees, both separate and combined, as well as by the host Singing Buckeyes. Other performers include Columbus Sweet Adelines Chorus, 2008 international champion quartet OC Times, 2010 Sweet Adelines international champion quartet Maxx Factor and a special appearance by the reigning international collegiate quartet champion Prestige, a group formed while its members were student singers attending the camp and continues now at Bowling Green State University.

Chile Verde Café serves familiar fare with a special twist There’s a combo platter of reasons why El Cheapo, order-bynumbers, Mexican-ish restaurants are plentiful and popular in Columbus. Let’s face it: Dining at these generally fun margarita-hustling and “enchirito”-slinging casas is like party-crashing your way into an instant fiesta. Didn’t eat much lunch today? Then dig into free chips and salsa; they’ll practically arrive at your table simultaneously with you. Boss acting like a jackwagon again? Make that a grande margarita. Need a burrito-load of feelgood food? Cue the zesty meat, melting cheese and gooey beans. Yep, this crowd-pleasing formula works — thus all the busy and successful El Restaurante clones. Too bad there aren’t more places like Chile Verde instead. Semi-recently (and significantly) enlarged and packing in loyal reg-
MENU by G. A. BENTON ulars for around two decades, the much-beloved Chile Verde fulfills all those above obligations while separating itself from the peso-a-dozen competition. First of all, rather than risibly making bogus claims of Mexican authenticity, Chile Verde wears its gringo-ness on its salsa-splattered sleeves. See, this non-chain joint goes its own southwestern way, whipping up familiar yet distinct (and quite spicy) food it proudly refers to as “the cuisine of New Mexico.” So expect the usual taco, enchilada and chile relleno-type fare to be served with a special twist, and expect a few unexpected dishes, too. Yeah, everything’s a little better — and/or a bit different — at
ity) in the cheaply priced ($5.50) House version. For something tarter and smarter, try the Skinny Margarita ($9). Chile Verde’s cheery and charming dining rooms also clue you in to its sunny and noncookie-cutter “Land of Enchantment” personality. Above a handsome terra cotta tile floor, metallic desert By Will Shilling/ThisWeek critters scale the walls; turquoise Beef enchiladas at Chile Verde in Dublin. tassels dangle from lamps; and Chile Verde. This includes the margaritas. For instance, you can currently, a great little local art taste actual fresh limejuice (a rar- exhibit of brashly painted Mexi-
can wrestler portraits by Rob Jones is entertainingly hung. These amusingly include some loco mask-clad Buckeye icons. Food-wise, no visit to Chile Verde is complete for me without a big bowl of the terrific Green Chile Stew ($5.50). Topped with cheese and tasting tangy, smoky and fiercely spicy, it’s filled with chunks of beef, potatoes, beans and carrots and is a must. Also quite spicy but much lighter was an inspired cucumber Gazpacho ($5). A recurring special, it’s cumin-kissed, pulpy, aggressively tart and thoroughly refreshing. Another frequent feature is the very fine fish taco. Generous hunks of mahi mahi were not battered and deep-fried but rubbed with a jerk-like spice mix and skillet-seared for a much lighter preparation. Enchiladas take on extra interest when wrapped in organic blue

tortillas (two Blue Corn Enchiladas with two sides are $12). Here, you can make neat sauceand-meat combinations like shredded beef with the killer chile verde or mushroom merlot sauces; chunky chicken with a zingy chile rojo (spicy roasted red chiles enriched with chicken stock) or salsalike ranchero sauces. Ordering the Combo Plato dinner affords tons of mix-and-match options (three mains, two sides for $13). You could choose a very good chile relleno properly leavened with egg whites to go with a masa-intense tamale and a meaty fajita taco. As for sides, I’d avoid the boring rice and go with the hearty, dip-like black beans and unusual, dense skin-on smashed potatoes with a hint of cinnamon.
Policy banning children uinder 6 not embraced locally A Pittsburgh-area restaurateur’s decision to ban children younger than 6 has drawn varied reactions from local restaurateurs and diners. Mike Vuick instituted the mandate last month at his restaurant, McDains Restaurant & Golf Center in suburban Monroeville, saying it was not a place for young kids. He said he was also tired of fighting with parents who couldn’t control their young ones. But many central Ohio restaurant owners don’t seem likely to embrace that edict any time soon. David Mor, owner of Olive Tree Mediterranean Café in Hilliard, said chil-
dren come with the territory. “That’s my biggest joy — kids at this age starting healthy eating habits,” he said. “A lot of parents, they don’t want kids eating ketchup and fries. Those young working couples, where can they go?” Carla Piolata said very few families bring young children to her restaurant, Cibo, an upscale Italian restaurant in Upper Arlington. “But the ones we get, they are treated very well,” she said. Still, both restaurateurs acknowledge that unruly behavior will not be tolerated. “We expect the parents to control their
kids,” Mor said. “My concern is it’s not only unfair to the other diners but it’s a liability issue.” Even the tony Refectory on the Northwest Side has experienced its occasional brush with out-of-control children, owner Kamal Boulos said. That presents a dicey situation for restaurant managers. “If the parents aren’t sensitive to the actions of their children, there’s really no easy way or gracious way you can help them to see that without offending them,” he said. Reached last week by phone, Vuick said the response has been overwhelmingly positive. Lately, emails have been 20-1 in favor of the policy, he said. Patrons have been relaying their own stories about unruly conduct by children and lack of discipline from parents. “There’s a lot of frustration and disgust out there toward this kind of behavior,” he said. He said he didn’t do it for the publicity. But patrons have come from as far as Columbus and Cleveland to show their support. “I thought this would pass,” he said. “I was wrong.” Since the policy was instituted July 16, receipts are up 20 percent, despite threats of boycotts, he said. So far, nobody has tried to challenge the policy in person, so he hasn’t had to turn anybody away. Local diner Geoffrey Matwich, who
has a 2-year-old, said certain dining experiences are good for both parents and children, but not all venues are appropriate. “As a parent who still enjoys going www.ThisWeekNews.com/foodandwine First Draft out to nice restaurant every once in awhile without my child, I find it not columnist Michael in the best interest of the child to put Paull recommends them in an environment where you Mad Hatter’s farmexpect them to sit and be quiet for house IPA, a truly long periods of time,” he said. “You unique drink for a summer wouldn’t take your child to the art long gallery or a symphony concert. Why evening. Michael Paull would you take them to a high-end Recipe of the week restaurant setting?” Sue Bellan, another local diner who doesn’t have children, said she understands the struggle with the issue. “I can certainly appreciate some of the higher-end restaurants having a policy of that nature so that they can offer a certain atmosphere in their restaurants, as that is what the majority of their clientele are paying for,” Bellan said. “However, on the flip side, if you are going to a mid-scale or family restaurant, you should expect that there will be families there with young children and not be upset with them acting up a bit, as children Chocolate torte with fresh whipped do.” David Kincheloe, a restaurant con- cream, courtesy of Bill Glover of Sage sultant in Golden, Colo., said bans on American Bistro. some types of behavior — certain attire, cell phones and smoking, to name centage of customers. a few —already exist in some restau“I think it potentially is a short-term rants.
