Good morning, Powell. The aroma of gourmet hot dogs will soon be wafting through the Gateway University District as Dog Haus prepares its Columbus debut near Ohio State. The popular chain has secured what representatives call "the best possible location" for their 2025 opening, adding yet another flavorful option to the campus area's growing culinary landscape.

If you prefer your dining with a side of supernatural intrigue, you're in luck. Two Central Ohio establishments have made the state's top haunted restaurants list – Columbus's Elevator Brewery, where a murdered colonel reportedly lingers among patrons, and Granville's Buxton Inn, complete with its very own ghost cat. Meanwhile, Union County is building bridges to the future through its "Crafted in Union County" showcase, connecting high school seniors with manufacturing careers that offer average annual earnings of $70,000.
