Local NonProfit Offers Free Laundry Facilities

February 25, 2025 By Lisa Grigsby

Have a Gay Day is offering free laundry facilities to those in our community who need to do a load of wash completely free.

This facility serves as a convenient and accessible space for members of the community to do their laundry. To ensure a smooth and efficient process, we have implemented an appointment system, allowing individuals to schedule their laundry sessions.

One of the key highlights of this initiative is that the laundry service will be completely free of cost. We understand that laundry expenses can be a burden for some community members, and we want to alleviate that stress by providing this essential service without any charges. Each person will have the opportunity to do two loads of laundry during their scheduled appointment.

If you’re in the Dayton Ohio area and you need to do a load or two of laundry please sign up on our website for our free community laundry service https://haveagayday.org/community-laundry-room/

In addition to the free laundry service, Have A Gay Day is also committed to gathering personal care items specifically for the laundry. These items will include laundry supplies such as detergent, fabric softener, and dryer sheets. By providing these necessary supplies, we aim to ensure that everyone who uses our service has access to a well-equipped laundry experience.

We are thrilled to be able to offer this Community Laundry Room as a resource for our community. It’s our hope that this initiative will not only provide a practical solution to laundry needs but also foster a sense of support and unity within our community.

Note:  This service is designed to help someone with essentials.  Like washing clothing to be able to get to work or to school or to make it through an emergency situation.  This is not designed to do a whole household of laundry.  This service is designed for clothing, not bedding, heavy coats, pet toys, or any items that are not wearable day to day garments.

Celebrate Fat Tuesday with Paczki

February 25, 2025 By Lisa Grigsby

Every year just before Mardi Gras — also known as Fat Tuesday or Shrove Tuesday, it’s a  day of feasting before the Christian fast known as Lent. While Carnival and Fat Tuesday are celebrated in many different ways worldwide, one festivity, in particular, is especially delicious: Paczki (pronounced as “pohnch-kee)  Day. The tradition is Polish, but it’s honored in many different communities.Paczki is the plural form of the word, while the singular form is paczek, which is pronounced “pohnch-eck”. Paczki are spherical, deep-fried balls of dough that are filled with jam, curd, or custard. Once fried to a golden brown, they are traditionally topped with a dusting of powdered sugar, covered in granulated sugar, or enrobed in a clear glaze and topped with diced orange peels.

The difference between paczki and donuts is the ingredients in their dough. Paczki uses an extra amount of enriching ingredients, yeast, grain alcohol, and high-gluten flour. Together, these create a richer-than-brioche dough, but far chewier with little to no crumbs. The use of grain alcohol creates a less oily product as well because the grain alcohol evaporates as it fries in the oil, which prevents excess oil absorption in the dough.

Additionally, many types of donuts use cake or pastry flour, smaller amounts of enriching ingredients, and baking soda or baking powder instead of yeast. Therefore, donuts are more crumbly and less rich-tasting than paczki.

Baker Benji’s in Old NorthDayton are offering the following:

They  HIGHLY recommend calling to pre-order your paczki for Mardi Gras/Fat Tuesday! First day for paczki in the store front will be FRIDAY FEBRUARY 21st.
Call or text 937.228.4151 to order!
You can also find them at Dorothy Lane Market, Ashley’s Pastry Shop, and Central Pastry in Middletown.

35th Annual Day of Caring Pancake Brunches This Sunday

February 18, 2025 By Lisa Grigsby

Established in 1991 by Jan Venkayya, Day of Caring is a grass roots organization based in Beavercreek, made up of volunteers committed to increasing personal awareness and involvement toward confronting the ever-increasing national plight of hunger and homelessness. This years event will take place on Sunday, Feb 23rd  all over town.  All proceeds from these Brunches benefit the local community’s Hunger and Housing Coalitions.

From the first pancake brunch with 12 locations this event has grown  to  locations in over 7 counties. As in the past, churches, community organizations, and public foundations host, prepare, and serve the annual pancake brunch.  “Each year, 500 volunteers get together to serve over 7,000 meals,” Day of Caring 365 Trustee Steve Pax said in a news release. “Those who are homeless or hungry find a generous support from our community during Thanksgiving and Christmas, however The Day of Caring Pancake Brunch takes the last Sunday in February to remind the needy that we don’t forget about them. We show that we care 365 days a year.” In 2012 the Simply Essential Hygiene Pantry was created and it currently serve 19 partner agencies in Greene, Miami, and Montgomery Counties in Ohio.

Brunches run on average $7 for adults and $5 for seniors (over 60) and children (under 12). Most brunches include pancakes and sausages, coffee and juice,  but each location put their own spin on additional offerings.

2nd Street Market’s Chefs Featured on Top Vegan!

February 16, 2025 By Lisa Grigsby

Filmed in Columbus, Ohio, this all-vegan competitive cooking reality series delivered culinary excitement and fierce competition. Eight vegan chefs and home cooks will compete and at the end of each episode, one contestant will be eliminated Top Chef-style. Competitions will see the contestants make vegan spins on classic dishes, paying homage to veganism’s roots.  Ultimately the winning chef is named Top Vegan.

In the shows first season Dayton Native Rhea Adkins of Vegan It IZ Eats, LLC,  showed off her culinary skills for multiple episodes. Rhea adapted a plant-based lifestyle after going on a spiritual fast in 2017 and a cancer scare with her mother. While eating plant-based foods she noticed an increase in energy and overall health. She then began to research and pilot her plant-based food products. Rhea’s desire is to see everyone live their best life full of energy.  She is also the author of the book “Plant-Based Jumpstart,” and the mother of two.

Larry & Lester of Invoke

In this second season for the show eight chefs competed in eight challenges for the  grand prize of $20,000 and title of “Top Vegan.” One of those contestants was Dayton’s own Lester Gates, who is the owner and chef at INVOKE with his brother Larry, opened at the  2nd Street Market six years ago. Since then, the restaurant has gained traction, serving modern takes on classic favorites, along with vegan options. Some of its staples include grain bowls, cashew-based “cheese cake,” and vegan crab cakes.

The show was filmed at culinary facility located on the campus at Columbus State Community College. Produced and hosted  by Chad Goodwin, owner of  4th and State, a vegan restaurant in Columbus.

Seaon 2 Contestants form left to right: Lester Gates, Sarah Martin, Candace Meredith, Jani Espinosa, Logan McMahan, Desireé Johnson, Elisa Vales, Matteo Silverman.

“We’re trying to make something that I think is severely lacking in the competitive cooking reality series as a whole,” said show director Logan Solana. “We want to show the world that going vegan is possible, and you don’t have to give up the things you love on an all-vegan diet.”

Chef Lester

Chef Lester said the 10 day experience “was amazing, exciting and a once in a lifetime opportunity. I enjoyed working with all the other contestants.”

Since the show, he’s been working on launching his Invoke Red Sauce which he featured in the business pitch of the final episode of the show, and getting it into stores.

You can watch the final episode of the show below:

Thanks Joe Head For the Bourbon Education!

February 14, 2025 By Lisa Grigsby

It’s the end of an era for Joseph Head and The Century Bar. I got the heads up last night and this morning he made it official by posting this on his Facebook Page:

“So it’s official I’ve left the Century. I leave with no anger or hatred. I’ve run my race. Time changes people change. I will never regret my 27 years there. I met my wife there. I became a Kentucky  Colonel. I’ve grown to be a much better person. However the bar business behind the scenes is terrible and unhealthy. It’s just simply time for me to say goodbye no regrets. I’ve been preparing for this transaction in life for a bit. Edye (his wife) has been more than supportive in my decision. I love the Century. That being said, letting something you love go, some time is best for everyone. Thank you all for supporting me. I want nothing more for the Century to thrive.”

Once a rough-around-the-edges, long-haired arrogant youth, Head credits Diane Spitzig, The Century’s longtime owner, with taking a chance on him and eventually making him the bar’s manager. In 2011 Joe started to have a vision, and  began researching bourbons and proposed the concept of changing the bar into a bourbon house. Together, the pair transformed the Century into one of the most raved-about bourbon houses in the nation for the past 13 years. Joe once described Th Century as a bar for professionals to enjoy a cocktail, with no tv’s, where you actually put your phone in your pocket and actually talk to people.

2012 was the first year The Century Bar was named to The Bourbon Review list of Best Bourbon Bars in America and it continued make the list year after year.  In 2015 Men’s Journal magazine’s website declared The Century one of the “10 Best Bourbon Bars in America” describing it as “a small bar with a huge bourbon list, The Century is as devoted to the whiskey as any other place in America.”

 

Joe told me he’s been working at a farm in Carlisle and enjoys working the land.  We wish him the best on his next chapter and thank him for educating so many of us about bourbon and for bringing Dayton so much attention in the national media.

An outpouring of wishes on his post include:
“Joe, you’re a Dayton Icon. Your contribution to our community will be cherished. I’ve grown up with the Century through the years, and you will be missed. I wish all the love and luck in the future. THANK YOU!! – Amy J
“Wish you all the best Joe, many great memories, and many nights I can’t remember from the old ‘dirty’ century!” – Kevin R

 “Joe was made a Kentucky Colonel  in 2016 for contributions to bourbon and Kentucky. He helped ring in new bourbon drinkers every year.” – Grant

“Respect, what you accomplished there is greatness!” Rob S.
“I am sure you will find a new “love” in you career change. If you ever find yourself in Louisville, please come by for a drink on the porch.” – Michael Veach, who nominated him for Kentucky Colonel.

Black Owned Food Businesses in the Miami Valley

February 13, 2025 By Lisa Grigsby

The observance of Black History Month this year brings an opportunity for a much-needed focus on supporting Black-owned businesses. Black Americans make up about 12.4% of the country’s population, but Black business owners represented only 2.4% of all employer-firm owners according to data from the U.S. Census Bureau. Supporting Black-owned businesses goes beyond making a purchase. It is an investment in the economic empowerment of our community by contributing directly to job creation, wealth accumulation, and community development.  We’ve highlighted a few of our locally black owned eateries.  Please add your favorites in the comments below, so we can highlight them in a future post!

Soft Opening for The Dayton Barbeque Co at Carillon Brewing

February 12, 2025 By Lisa Grigsby

Eric Evans

It’s a new era fro Carillon Brewing Co, powered by  The Dayton Barbecue Company.  Owner Eric Evans is know for southern style of barbeque- cooked low and slow. He established his business in 2021,  doing pop-ups at breweries around town and in March of 2024 they found  what he thought would be a permanent  home at Hidden Valley Orchards in in Lebanon.

They were a huge success there, selling out of their brisket, pork, spare ribs most weekend.  Their mac and cheese and collard greens became customer favorites. But in Dec of 2024 Evans announced he was looking for a new home, after HVO owners Randy and Robyn Lane shared some upcoming changes with him.
When Brady Kress, president and CEO of Dayton History, heard they were looking for a new home, he approached Evans about taking over the food service at Carillon Brewing and it seemed like a good match. Evans approached his buddy Chef Ashley Ashbrook, who may be familiar to many from his Oregon District hot dog cart, Blind Dogs, to come on as Executive Chef and run the kitchen.

Guests can expect a menu that celebrates barbeque and Evans shared his excitement about his new Marketplace Salad loaded with veggies and smoked chicken,and crispy pork belly and house made dressings.  In additions to his mac & cheese, they’ll have crispy brussell sprouts with abalsamic glaze, house made pickles and onion straws and  Carillon Pretzel twists with home made beer cheese. Down the road look for locally made sausage to be added to the menu. For dessert, you’ll be able to enjoy a smoked apple bread pudding with a butterscotch topping.

New Thai and Japanese Restaurant in Miamisburg

February 6, 2025 By Lisa Grigsby

Last month Ariake Sushi Bar & Restaurant in Miamisburg was sold. The new owner Penn, is no stranger to Thai restaurants as she grew up in the family restaurant business.   This will be her second restaurant as she also owns Penn’s Thai Grille in Bellbrook.  The Miamisburg business has been renamed Thai Smile and Sushi Bar and will feature  sushi, homestyle Japanese  & Thai dishes, as well as sake. New signage will be coming soon.

The menu offers  savory Pad Thai and creamy curries and there is a sushi bar where you can watch the creation of  handcrafted sushi rolls.

I started my meal there with the Thai Appetizer Combo, which included 2 crispy spring rolls, 4 cream cheeses rangoon, 3 fried pot stickers, 1 egg roll served with sweet and sour sauce.

Penn shared that her favorite dish is pad thai, so of course I ordered it.  It’s Rice noodles stir-fried with egg, green onion, bean sprouts, carrots, homemade Pad Thai sauce, which is sweet and tangy, garnished with chopped peanuts.  You can order it with chicken, vegetables, tofu, beef or shrimp.  I chose the beef, shrimp combo which ran $19.99


We also tried the Bourbon Fried Rice which was grilled marinated ghicken cooked with homemade brown sauce along with fried rice tossed with egg, white/green onions, brown sauce) and sprinkle of scallions.

They are currently running a Special Welcome Offer for new customers where you can get $5 off your first online order of $20 or more with the code First5 – available exclusively on their website!
You can also follow them on Facebook.


Open Monday – Saturday from  11:00am – 9:00pm.

Rose Announces Two Shows: Bonnie Raitt & Buddy Guy

February 4, 2025 By Lisa Grigsby

Bonnie Raitt is heading back out for her fourth year on tour just months after being recognized for her lifetime of artistic achievements as part of the Kennedy Center’s 47th Class of Honorees in Washington, DC last December. Raitt and her world-class band will headline theaters and amphitheaters around the country performing songs from her enduring catalog, including Rose Music Center at The Heights on Saturday, September 6.  Her tour has taken her across the U.S. and Canada with stops overseas in Australia, England, Ireland, Scotland and Europe since the release of her critically acclaimed, three-time GRAMMY Award-winning studio album, Just Like That… in 2022.

Raitt said, “I’m looking forward to having my longtime pal and one of my favorite artists, blues legend Jimmie Vaughan & The Tilt-A-Whirl Band be our special guests for the late Summer tour. We’ve shared many gigs and duets over the years but never as a ‘double trouble’ co-bill.  Bound to be some good blues rockin’ going on – can’t wait to hit the road together!” Vaughan agrees,“Thrilled to play some shows with my talented friend Bonnie Raitt and her band!  It’s been a long time coming!  Myself and The Tilt-A-Whirl Band are excited to be part of this great tour.”

Raitt earned her 31st GRAMMY nomination in December, Best American Roots Performance, for her contribution to the track “Nothing In Rambling,” a wonderful cover of Memphis Minnie’s song featuring Fabulous Thunderbirds founding member Kim Wilson, along with Bonnie, Keb’ Mo’, Taj Mahal and Mick Fleetwood.  The track appears on the Fabulous Thunderbirds’ latest album, Struck Down, also nominated for the GRAMMY Award for Best Traditional Blues Album.

Eight-time GRAMMY® Award-winning blues legend Buddy Guy is giving fans another chance to experience his electrifying live show with the newly announcedDamn Right Encore Tour. Extending his historic farewell run into summer 2025, the tour will feature headline dates across the U.S., including a return to Rose Music Center at The Heights on Saturday, June 14 with support by special guest Eric Gales.

As one of the last living legends of the blues, Buddy Guy has inspired generations of musicians, from Jimi Hendrix to Eric Clapton and John Mayer. His Damn Right Farewell tour has been a celebration of his extraordinary career, and the newly added Damn Right Encore dates give even more fans the opportunity to witness a blues master at work.

Tickets for both of these shows will go on sale to the public beginning at 10AM on Friday, February 7 at Ticketmaster.comand the Rose Music Center Box Office.
