No, Paul, you're not referring to Bonge's. I know the place of which you speak. They have excellent Elk burgers. And a lot of other home-cooked foods, too. But their real claim to fame is that it is the only "fly in" restaurant. Yes, they have a g...
I'm at Broad Ripple, Downtown on Wednesdays, and starting this Saturday, Carmel.
JS Reutz makes the world's best meatloaf and a VERY yummy toasty cheese sandwich. It is THE place to knosh!
Hey, I bake a wonderful Sugar Cream Pie. You can order it and pick it up at a local farmers market. I only make them on special order.
Don't forget the century-old Shapiro's.
Another one I love is Boby Joes' Beef & Brew in Greenwood.
Oh, and Saffron Cafe downtown -- yummy Moroccan.
Jenna,
I own "Daina's Petite Pies". I make savory (dinner) pies using locally grown grass-fed meats and local produce. My pies are all handmade and frozen. They require about 40 minutes in the oven by the customer. I would love to sell them to you...

Great soul food! Maxines Chicken & Waffles on East Street downtown. Yummy! Really!

Well, you've probably been there, but the best place for Thai is Siam House in Fountain Square. They have a nice private dining room upstairs and their food is DEElish!

There's another at 82nd and Hague, at the church on the northwest corner of the intersection. Sorry I don't have more specific information. You might try looking on the website atGeist.com or on the related network atGeist.net.
