Hello, Monday! Chelsea here.

I hope youā€™re feeling a little hungry because weā€™re kicking this week off with a lot of exciting (and some sad) restaurant news. Somehow, itā€™s already time to say ā€œhelloā€ to July. I donā€™t know why 2024 is flying by, but you better make time to check these restaurants out because it will be August before you know it and then youā€™ll have even more delicious spots on your to-do list! P.S. If youā€™re already feeling exhausted then definitely stop at the Yemeni coffee shop thatā€™s included this month. It will give you the energy you need to eat your way through the rest of the list!

šŸ„© Guess Who's Back? An Iconic Steakhouse Returns to Columbus
We donā€™t exactly have a shortage of fantastic steakhouses here in Columbus. But there is one major player that has been out of the game, so to speak. But thatā€™s all about to change because Miranda Priestlyā€™s favorite steakhouse is coming back to Columbus and the new space looks like itā€™s going to be gorgeous.

This cannabis startup pioneered ā€œrapid onsetā€ gummies

Most people prefer to smoke cannabis but that isnā€™t an option if youā€™re at work or in public.

Thatā€™s why we were so excited when we found out about Moodā€™s new Rapid Onset THC Gummies. They can take effect in as little as 5 minutes without the need for a lighter, lingering smells or any coughing.

Nobody will ever know youā€™re enjoying some THC.

We recommend you try them out because they offer a 100% money-back guarantee. And for a limited time, you can receive 20% off with code FIRST20.
