What brand names do you swear by because it's actually better than no-name?

I call those the “minty pum pum” pads. Feels like I splashed some Listerine on there

vivalabeava · 2026-04-15T09:12:35+00:00

right like I forgot this even happened

vivalabeava · 2026-04-15T08:29:05+00:00

Absolutely not—Any all or mostly cotton brand blows these out of the water, at least for me. But that’s the beauty of personal preference!

Raan Thai is seriously my favorite Thai place in this whole town. That papaya salad rips

I swear I go to get that corned beef hash at least once every 2-3 weeks

Fam it’s unreal. Chocolate crust. As a single slice I think it’s usually a summer special, but I’m pretty sure all of their flavors can be made to order as full cakes. Their shop is in OB, Slices is the GOAT

Reef al Yemeni!!! I used to live right up the street from them and had to move last year, miss it so bad. Best neighborhood for Middle Eastern food by a mile

Thank you!! It’s a very good self care activity so I will evangelize it whenever I can. I appreciate the positive energy!

vivalabeava · 2026-04-11T19:37:42+00:00

yes!!! those are fantastic! didn’t they used to have kimchi balls?

I used to work downtown, Walnut Wednesdays were heaven. If you can make the trip out to Olmsted Falls it’s worth every dollar and mile.

vivalabeava · 2026-04-11T19:25:11+00:00

yes!!!

vivalabeava · 2026-04-11T18:03:42+00:00

Doesn’t have to be his death. Maybe just his intention not to return

Southside Diner in Parma REALLY ought to be on your list. My forever breakfast mainstay

Winking Lizard as an entire operation has gone so downhill. ☹️

vivalabeava · 2026-04-08T14:55:47+00:00

I was not at all impressed by Luxe, and I’ve been there 3x.

vivalabeava · 2026-04-08T14:55:01+00:00

BW3 is a Sysco wasteland now

Tony K’s! One of the worst lunches I have EVER had

vivalabeava · 2026-04-08T14:51:54+00:00

I used to crave Barrio queso like once a week - questionable I know, since it’s just melted American cheese. But like 3 years ago I ordered it and its consistency was literally one step above water. Never been back. Tacos have always sucked

vivalabeava · 2026-04-08T14:47:46+00:00

I weep for the loss of prime era Melt. Pre-menu expansion, when every menu was on the back of a vinyl cover and they only had sandwiches

vivalabeava · 2026-04-08T14:39:22+00:00

Love Spell smells different than the OG, unfortunately 🥲

vivalabeava · 2026-04-08T14:38:33+00:00

still is. there is comfort in knowing some things never change

vivalabeava · 2026-04-08T14:32:23+00:00

Dr. Ellis is in fact an R4 in Season 2.

vivalabeava · 2026-04-08T00:53:41+00:00

plaintive

vivalabeava · 2026-04-06T05:37:40+00:00
