There is little doubt too much of my time and money are spent cooking. That means reading cookbooks, shopping all over town for spices, gadgets and appliances, preparing ingredients, cooking, and the worst two--cleaning afterward and finding places for things. The last month or so I have been limiting time spent by dining out more, getting carry out and buying prepared food.
I have found most often I go to George's Kitchen. Here is the food that appears on kitchen tables all over the country. It is the home cook's meals that influence us and we remember all our lives. Celebrity chefs have little effect on what people eat at home or what they will remember most. George's extensive menu includes American classics as well as the ethnic dishes most of us have learned to cook in our own kitchens.
I found this restaurant from reading yelp reviews that decried the surplus population of senior citizens who dine here. That sold it for me. I much prefer to dine amongst my peers who are polite and have accomplished so much. Thanks to the young Cleveland yelpers for guiding me to a place where I get good home cooking at such low prices.
