Hello Wednesday! Chelsea here.

We’re halfway through the week already, my friends, which means it’s time to start thinking about weekend plans. If your weekend plans involve grabbing a bit to eat in Dublin, you’re in luck. And if your plans don’t currently involve eating in Dublin, they probably will once you read through this list. The restaurants are innovative, creative, and most importantly, delicious. Sorry in advance for making you start the morning off hungry. But hey, maybe there’s time to head to Dublin on your lunch break!

Flying Cars Are On The Horizon In Ohio 🚁
Maybe I just watched too much of the Jetsons as a kid, but I kind of always assumed we’d have flying cars by now. But we could soon if this new venture has anything to say about it.

This Downtown Surface Lot Will Be Transformed Into A 5-Story Mixed-Use Development 😍
I am, admittedly, such a sucker for a mixed-use development. They just make sense for modern living and I’m happy that they’ve become the norm in Columbus. That said, they can fall into a pattern of looking exactly the same. This new development looks incredible and unique, and it will be so much more beautiful than the current surface lot that stands in the space.

The 13 Most Beautiful High Schools In Central Ohio 🏛
While I genuinely loved my high school, I can admit that from an architectural standpoint, it was hideous. Luckily for other students around Columbus, there are some truly beautiful school buildings around town.
