Powell: Nearing 80, Cousino's remains a classic
On a dinner visit to Cousino’s Steakhouse on Woodville Road in East Toledo, it was good to see that old favored traditions are alive and well. But it was equally gratifying to see the Cousino family also features new dining out trends. Traditions not only include several cuts of steak, but the individual potato casseroles that have been a dinner highlight since I can remember. The potatoes, baked and served in individual casseroles with a sour cream sauce, are said to be one of the Cousino’s heirloom recipes. The eight ounce sirloin, which is promoted as the house steak for $25, was served medium rare as requested.

Four-legged royalty: Prom goes to the dogs at the Glass City Dog Park
Two dogs were crowned king and queen of The Glass City Dog Park’s “pooch prom,” giving these four-legged friends something to shake their tails about. Coda, a 3-year-old “super mutt” was the event’s prom king and Ruthie, a 5-year-old Great Danoodle, was the prom queen, leaving their owners smiling ear-to-ear. The non-profit organization held its “Enchanted Under the Sea Pooch Prom” at the South Toledo park, 1171 Woodsdale Ave., on May 18, with superlatives, music, treats, and more for guests to enjoy. “It was for members to have a little fun with their dogs… A lot of our members love a good reason to bring their dogs together,” said Erin Laws, the board president at the Glass City Dog Park. “[They] know that there’s going to be other people there to socialize their dogs and themselves.”

Bestselling author Graham Moore to visit Sylvania
Graham Moore, a multitime New York Times best-selling author and Oscar-winning screenwriter for The Imitation Game, is headed to Sylvania on Thursday. In the Starlite Theater’s inaugural authors series, Mr. Moore will share insights into his writing process and inspirations for his new book: The Wealth of Shadows, a historical novel about an ordinary man who seizes the opportunity to join a secret mission to bring down the Nazi war machine — not with bullets, but by crashing the economy. “I just became fascinated by a story that I'd never heard of before,” Mr. Moore said of the book's main character, Ansel Luxford. “The book is told from his perspective. You're kind of inside his head,” he said. “The whole book you only see what he sees. You only hear what he hears. You only know what he knows.”
