Hungry?

How about a pair of tickets to the Dig-In food festival at White River State Park Aug. 26, as well as a copy of the new book “Food for Thought: An Indiana Harvest” by writer David Hoppe and photographer Kristin Hess? (More info on the fest here and the book here.)

All you have to do is enter below and share some thoughts about something you ate this week.

I’ll pick one winner at random.

    Went to Pure Eatery in FS for the first time. Great local and fresh food. Apple and chicken quesadillas. Jalapeno and watermelon gazpacho. Recommend this place highly.

    KeithAugust 8, 2012 12:26 PM
    On the search for the best sushi/hibachi Japanese cuisine around... My wife and I tried the new Fuji place in Muncie. Food was so-so, service was pretty bad (waited an eternity for both the food, and then the check--the waiter never came by!). Currently my favorite is Izakaya on 96th. Gotta love the yum yum sauce.

    Have unfortunately had a bit of a stomach bug this week, so I can't speak to what I've eaten so far, but I'm definitely looking forward to lunch at Capital Grille on Friday for my last Devour Downtown opportunity!

    This probably wasn't the best year to join a CSA given the drought, but it still has brought a wealth of veggies into the house. I love coming up with new ways to use what surprises we get each week. Yesterday was a chicken pot pie with local produce, including kale.

    On the suggestion of my wife, our "date night" last week took us to English Ivy. Without question, one of the most enjoyable eateries in the greater downtown Indy area!! The baked salmon with fettucinni alfredo hit the spot, and was only topped by the exceptional service from Nick - our server. A return visit is definitely in order!!

  • Jalapenos & banana peppers
    Celeste TarnowAugust 10, 2012 1:07 PM
    We visited Madison, IN, to attend their arts fest, a few years ago, where we bought locally grown, banana peppers... Saved the seeds from them to plant in my garden & we've been enjoying them ever since in omelets & in other dishes. Also, we've had a crop of jalapenos grown in pots on our deck that are tasty in homemade burritos or chili. Made a mistake & touched my face after dicing them, though, & my lips & nose burned... (using a fork & knife to cut them up, now). Has anyone ever put milk up their nose to get rid of jalapeno pain?

    I never go wrong with a Chicken Po Boy from Papa Roux. Fresh local bakery bread stuffed with chicken and sloppy slaw. And now the Eastside location is open for dinner all week, which serves all you can eat sides (including the BEST mushroom étouffée) when you dine in. And the servers are AWESOME!

  • What a crepe!
    Jada HalseAugust 24, 2012 5:47 PM
    Who knew I could find a bit of Paris in the Indianapolis City Market? I now know and believe I'll travel to Paris regularly. Yesterday I tried out Three Days in Paris and it was amazing. I had a simple crepe -ripened-red, sun -sweetened strawberries, engorged , juicy, fresh blueberries, with lemon cream wrapped in a saucer like crepe bigger than my head. Simple pleasures are often the best. This was truly orgasmic.
