I’ve had a couple lattes and mochas from the BLOC Coffee Shop and so far I’m impressed. Considering it’s a coffee shop put together by a non profit ministries organization, it’s pretty outstanding. I haven’t tried the straight up brewed coffee; only espresso and milk drink, but I’ll definitely be checking it out more frequently so I can split my addiction between the Coffee Emporium and BLOC.
BLOC is located at the corner of Price Ave and Hawthorne Ave and open weekdays for coffee and espresso drinks between 6:30 and 10:00am. The short hours are probably a good thing since I might not resist a morning and evening coffee.

Just an interesting post I found the other day from the well known Laughing Squid blog. Scott Beale enjoys Skyline Chili on his way through town. He never said which location he visited and I wish there was a mention of the Price Hill neighborhood, but that’s what trackbacks are for.

Since the start of Price Hill Blog I’ve debated if I should post news regarding Price Hill, save room for user commentary and leave it at that, or, chime in with my opinion and make that the conversation starter, rather than the news item itself.
I’ve come to the conclusion that I find my comments most interesting–granted they are my thoughts. Isn’t this really the nature of a blog? Otherwise, I’m just filtering various newspapers, blogs and other media sources into a digestible stream for a niche audience. So, in the future look forward to more commentary on my part (when time and reason permits.)
Todays earlier post has inspired me for a more in depth explanation of how $500,000 isn’t really a great thing for Price Hill. I’ll post it shortly.
On another note, I have various ideas and segments I’m working on for the blog so stay tuned.
Another couple notes that are way off topic…
Lately I tried a (new?) Thai restaurant in Western Hills, Thai Taste. It’s located on Crookshank, near Applebee’s and O’Charley’s. This isn’t Price Hill, but it’s close. The menu includes plenty of entre choices and at least two pages of sushi rolls. This is the only place on the west side I know of that serves Sushi. If I’m wrong please comment below. The building doesn’t look like much from the outside, but I was impressed with the food. Both the Chicken Pad Thai and sushi choices I ordered were great. I would rate the food somewhere between Thai Express in Clifton, and Teak in Mt. Adams or Thai Cafe in Clifton.
Also, over the weekend I dropped by Findlay market to hang out, get some food and taste the new Christian Moerlein Fifth & Vine Oktoberfest Marzen. It’s excellent!
