IThe best part? Essence started their explanation of choosing Columbus with the simple phrase, “Don’t laugh. Columbus has gastronomical game.” We agree! 

It’s no secret that Paris, Barcelona, and Mexico City are among the top global destinations for incredible, decadent food, year after year. But what if I told you that good ol’ Columbus, OH has now been added to this esteemed list of “Best Destinations for Culinary Travel,” among the aforementioned international cities? 

Essence Magazine, a monthly publication known for city guides, fashion, culture, and lifestyle, has named Columbus as a hotspot for culinary travel in 2024.

“It is called home by chefs and restaurants that have been given kudos from The New York Times, Bon Appétit, Food & Wine and others. Chef BJ Lieberman, who opened Hiraeth this year with dishes like whole jerk guinea hen with yuca hash browns, grilled turnips and pineapple, earned a James Beard Award semifinalist nod in 2023,” Essence explained. 

“Modern Southern Table owner and winner of Food Network’s Food Court Wars, Sadaya ‘Daisy’ Lewis, opened Modern Southern Table in the Budd Dairy Food Hall a few years ago. The Black-owned spot features recipes from Daisy’s grandmother’s kitchen, including fried chicken, gumbo, macaroni and cheese and other Southern classics. Take it from me, you’ll be impressed with what’s cooking in Columbus,” said Essence.

We know Columbus is special, but for our city to be included in a list that also praises Paris, Toronto, Barcelona, and Mexico City, means the world to us, really. Among Columbus, the only other American cities featured were Charleston, Tampa, and Carmel-by-the-Sea.

Which types of showings work

Image
  A showing is an opportunity for a buyer to determine if a home is right for them. Each of the different types of showing plays a valid and necessary role in marketing the home. Some buyers may start by looking at homes online, which can lead them to drive by the home to see if it still meets their interest before they schedule a showing. New Build Model Homes:  Take me with you to your visits and don’t register online when looking at homes. Builders/Sellers require I, your agent represent you on first and substantial visits so it’s imperative that I make first contact!  Open Houses:  Take me with you! Make sure you give agent at open house my name and number, Im a great agent to represent you in selling buying or building your home.

By Ashley Fahey – Editor, The National Observer: Real Estate Edition, The Business Journals Restrictions around building new housing is a commonly cited hurdle to affordability in many U.S. markets.   Housing affordability is becoming a bigger issue for U.S. voters, spurring policymakers — especially at the state and local levels — to consider new measures aimed at easing the burden facing both renters and prospective homeowners.   While every city, county or region thinks about housing affordability (and potential solutions) differently, several common policy changes are being pursued, especially to ease restrictions around building new housing. New research from the Mercatus Center at George Mason University in Arlington, Virginia, outlines some of the biggest reforms being adopted across the U.S. today and offers a menu of potential options for policymakers to consider. Emily Hamilton, senior research fellow and director of the Urbanity Project at the Mercatus Center, said even

  If you're in a financially stable position, now might be the perfect time to embark on your homeownership journey. Buying a home today offers several advantages, including the opportunity to build equity and stabilize your housing costs in the face of rising expenses. Explore the reasons why purchasing a home now can be a wise decision in the current market. By purchasing a home today, you can start building equity, which is an investment in your future. Additionally, opting for a fixed-rate mortgage allows you to stabilize your monthly housing costs for the long term, even as other expenses continue to rise.
