Rotolos always wins the "best of" awards for pizza in Columbus. Its a very
basic operation - small concrete block building, a couple of folding chairs
for people waiting for their order, no dining room, no delivery, no
advertising, plain white boxes, no checks, mostly family members from
grandma to the grandkids work there. The do have a website:
http://www.rotolospizza.com/ Have fun in Columbus. If you run out of
foodie things to do there, consider making a visit to the Cincinnati area.
Jungle Jim's International Market in Fairfield is an amazing place to visit.
It is an enormous market with an emphasis on unusual, imported ethnic foods.
They have a production facility for fish (aquaculture), an enormous wine and
cheese department, and much more, including a monorail system to connect it
all.
