2014 was a big year in Columbus. Lots of ups and downs… but mostly ups.

Miriam Bowers Abbott
The problem with “best” lists, at least for a fickle person, is that they’re so absolute. The BEST dining, the BEST entree, the BEST trend. A little reality check says that most of the new joints will be gone inside of five years. Heck, at least one of my Bests of 2013 is already gone. […]

December 30, 2014 7:40 am Hope Madden
The year offered a lot of great films and several unusual trends, like the abundance of exceptional movies with one word titles. Weird. We also had a banner year in great independent horror, excellent blockbusters, some exceptional movies from first time filmmakers (Rosewater, Nightcrawler, Dear White People, Obvious Child and more), and a promising number […]

When we polled our readers on their favorite place in Columbus they picked one that is also one of the most plentiful: Salon Lofts.
