Soda Time

It all started with cola.
That’s according to John Lynch, the owner (along with his wife Jennifer) of Rambling House Soda Pop on East Hudson Street in the University District. After working in a brewery that also made small-batch soda, he turned his garage into a laboratory and started brewing his own concoctions the same way craft beer is made. The goal was to produce a quality drink with a few ingredients.

Elusive fig can find its way into almost any dish

Fresh figs — soft, sweet and creamy-delicious — mystify many cooks.
Like other summer fruits, they’re in season now, but many people have little knowledge of figs beyond the Newton.
The reason for that: Unlike dried figs, fresh figs can be difficult to find in supermarkets.
Larger central Ohio stores often don’t stock them — California grows most of the U.S. figs — because they can spoil before they sell.
