Perfect patios | The Great Outdoors
On a warm, sunny day or breezy summer evening, restaurant patios can have a magnetic pull. Here’s a local sampling.
Heggy’s Nut Shop | Behind the Food
Eric Lynn was a counter clerk 26 years ago when he started working at Heggy’s Nut Shop. Today, he is president of the Canton standby, which has been serving coneys, buttered french fries and hot fudge sundaes from its lunch counter since 1950.
Bender’s Tavern | Gourmet Legacy
Jerry Jacob, the owner of Bender’s Tavern, remembers when two-martini lunches were standard practice at downtown Canton’s landmark restaurant.
Main Street Deli | Behind the Food
Drive past Navarre’s Main Street Deli between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. weekdays and you’re likely to see a line out the front door.
Jen’s Place | Behind the Food
For the growing ranks of craft-beer fans, Jen’s Place Craft Beer Tasting Room in downtown Massillon is an oasis. Jen’s Place, at 43 Lincoln Way E, is a tasting room devoted to Ohio-brewed beers, with Ohio wines and snacks rounding out the menu.
Mint & Lime Asian Bistro | Behind the Food
There’s a simple meaning behind the name of Mint & Lime Asian Bistro.
“Mint and lime means fresh. Everything fresh. Everything,” said Kenny Ly, owner and chef of the restaurant at 7180 Fulton Drive NW in Jackson Township.
Meet Me at Irene’s | Behind the Food
One day at Meet Me at Irene’s, the popular eatery she co-owns in Hartville, Robin Rupp watched in wonderment as a man drove up in a tractor, parked it in the lot and walked in for breakfast.
Garish holiday fun
Think of it as an ugly Christmas sweater party with fancy cocktails that lasts an entire month. That Christmas Bar is a pop-up holiday diversion dreamed up by Scott and Kim Shapiro that is open through December 30, adjacent to their TD’s Tailgate Grill at 2234 Tuscarawas Street W in Canton.
Shop Small: Plant Et Art
After 25 years of existence, Plant Et Art remains a reliable destination for quirky gifts and mischievous cards.
Oser’s Dairy and Deli | Behind the Food
An old-fashioned ice cream parlor in business since 1954, Oser’s Dairy and Deli is to Canal Fulton what Taggart’s Ice Cream Parlor and Restaurant, Milk & Honey and Heggy’s Nut Shop are to Canton.
