The last Tuesday of the month is cigar lovers night at The Dublin Pub  and this month they are  taking it up a notch. On Aug 29th from 6:30 – 9:30pm for $40,  Chef Brandon  will be serving up Mulligans Beef Stew, Corned Beef and Cabbage, and Carved Beef Tenderloin injected with Jameson and honey!

Brand ambassadors from Jameson Irish Whiskey will be on hand to lead guests through a tasting experience.  Starting with the triple distilled  Jameson, then moving on to Jameson 12 year old, which is the most popular of the aged Jameson whiskeys. Next you’ll move on to Jameson Gold Reserve, a creative blend of three whiskeys of advanced years, one of which is uniquely matured in virgin oak barrels and coupled with the bourbon barrels and sherry casks, that account for the whiskey’s satisfying complexity and honey toasted sweetness.  Finally the  Jameson18 Year Old Limited Reserve, known for it’s  mellow, complex taste and lingering finale of wood, spice and toffee.

George from The Market in Kettering will be featuring cigars from Drew Estate Products!  They combine traditional cigar making techniques with new and innovative concepts. “The Rebirth of Cigars” is their mantra.  They blend traditional South American-grown tobaccos with exotic tobaccos from Spain, Italy, Turkey, Louisiana, and other parts of the world. There cigars are finished using the finest wrapper leaves from Africa, Mexico, Indonesia, and the U.S. to achieve the most profound flavor combinations. The strengths run mild to full, with each cigar having its own unique character and aroma.
The Dublin Pub is located at 300 Wayne Ave in the Oregon District and you can call 937-224-7822 for more information or email them at  [email protected].

Food Adventures visits The Market on Wilmington Pike

The Market on Wilmington Pike

Summer is a great time to have a cold beer or glass of wine on a deck or patio.  It is also a time of enjoying a good cigar while outside golfing with friends or just relaxing.  We found a nice little Food Adventure spot where you can get wine, beer, cigars, Greek specialties and more.  It is called The Market and is a family owned and operated shop on Wilmington Pike in Kettering, not far from Rahn Rd.  The place is not huge, but it is packed with a wide variety of beer, wine and cigar selections.
Owner George Karras says the best way to check out their special offers is to visit their website here.  We saw some interesting things that were “off the beaten path.”  We also discovered that this Mom and Pop place can help place special orders for  “hard to find items!”

Beer at The Market: Too many brands to choose from?  The Market has mix and match specials.  Certain unique beers this month are $4.99 for each 6-pack and $3.99 for each 6-pack if you order a case.  There are beers in almost every nook and cranny of this store.  There is also a walk-in “Beer Vault” keeping brews ice cold at 33 degrees.   The Big Ragu picked up a rare treat in a 32 ounce Sol Beer Bottle from Mexico for only $1.99.

Wine at The Market:  Through buying various close-out specials, The Market is able to offer good wines at good prices.  Again, it is all about selection here.  The staff is knowledgeable and can help sort out the various offerings.

Cigars at The Market:  Want variety? There are 400+ cigar choices in the walk-in humidor.  There are also close-out bundles, and specials that made us do a double take.  We even found a few good stogey choices for under $2 each!  Any of your cigar questions are easily answered by longtime employee Russell, who will bend your ear about his favorites and steer you towards some good “sticks.”

Greek Specialties at The Market:  The Karras family is very involved in the Dayton Greek Festival, and you may recognize George from the festival band.  The Market gives George a chance to showcase some Greek Specialties that are rare finds in the Dayton area.  First off, there are Gyro Kits for under $10.  The Market also has homemade tzadziki sauce for sale that is  made with goat’s milk-yogurt.  Other Greek goodies include Mytzithra, Kefalotiri, Kefalograviera, and Kasseri which are all cheeses made with sheep or goat’s milk.  This  is definitely Food Adventure material.

The Market is a great place to run in and out, or to take a half hour and explore.   It is a unique place with unique offerings.   Grab a gallon of milk, or a Hefeweizen beer.  There is no other place like it in Dayton.  What impresses us most about The Market is the affordable selection.  Good deals on good products throughout the store.  This Market is definitely one worth checking out.
