Great Lakes Brewing

Pretzel chicken

Bratwurst and pierogi

There's nothing better than a homemade pierogi, except fresh beer. Great Lakes Brewing in the Ohio City District of Cleveland, makes some amazing food and brews up some amazing beer.

We tried the pretzel chicken, which is a chicken breast wrapped in pretzel crumbs and then cooked. Its absolutely delicious - we haven't eaten or seen anything like it anywhere!

We also had the bratwurst and pierogi. The homemade bratwurst was delicious, the right texture and the right flavors. And the pierogis are homemade and delicious. Even when I was full, I still picked (and finished) the pierogis, they were just that good.

We also ordered a Holy Moses, the brewery's wheat beer. It was sweet and thick and warm and ice cold and so good that I don't know why I can't get these in Philadelphia!
