May was a busy month yet I somehow don’t have a lot to show for it – I must have had my phone put away more than it was out! Here are some of my memorable meals.

Quick Bite at Mikey’s Late Night Slice

Four slices of pizza from Mikey's Dayton

I absolutely love that we have a few places downtown for quick eats when needed – I’m a little later than I want to be more often than not… Mikey’s got us fed, a few drinks, and out the door in no time!

Spring Spritz at Swoon Books & Wine

If you haven’t stopped in at Swoon yet, you should definitely make it in soon. This place is so cute – and this was my first visit during the day. You can really appreciate all the pretty touches when you see it in the day light!

Spritz from Swoon

I tried a tasty, spring-y spritz and loved it so much. I can’t wait to go back and see what they have for summer.

Dinner at Bistecca

We were downtown and looking for a good meal when we decided to revisit Bistecca.

Spritz from Bistecca Dayton

I must be in a spritz mood this month, because I tried one of their spritzes just like at Swoon.

Bread at Bistecca

I always forget that they use a fire grill for just about everything so all of the sides I ordered were smokey and delicious.

Asparagus at Bistecca

It was a delicious meal and we had the best time having a sort of impromptu date night.

Here are my favorite meals from April.
