We have come to know this county as our home - and we really do love it here
Warsaw has been recognized as one of the "Top 100 Small Towns in America". The population is just over 12,000 and the motto in Warsaw is 'Live, Work and Play'. Known as the "Orthopedic Manufacturing Capital of the World," Warsaw has the best of both worlds---because Warsaw is also surrounded by one of the strongest agricultural economies in the state of Indiana.

My Friday Five this week focuses on our favorite dining spots in Warsaw area and Kosciusko County. Bruce and I enjoy the company of just each other or with our Best friends, Allen and Esther - a cold beer, seeing a few friends... and usually something hot and spicy.... and we can usually find all those things at one of these local 'hot spots'....
1. The Silver Inn, Silver Lake, IN
Our local watering hole and the place where we can be found on almost any given Friday night.
This is the type of place that they write songs about...."I love this bar, it's my kind of place"

or..."Sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name" ... This is THAT place!
The company is good, the beer is cold - the Chili is good and the Friday night special is often a juicy grilled steak. In the Fall - the "Smelt Fry" is something everyone should experience, where "you can get Smelt and Bread at the Silver Inn"
2. Mad Anthony's/Lake City Taphouse
We are members of the "Mug Club" - and we love the seasonal brews... or just a cold Gabby Blonde. The Jambalya Mad skins are hot hot hot!!! Mad Anthony's is one of our favorite places to meet after a hard day at work - or a hard work out at the YMCA.

3. Spikes Beach Grill
The main restaurant, Noa Noa is open all year and has GREAT Fresh Fish entree's and Sushi!
(Spikes is only open in temps. > than 50 degrees)
Sand Volleyball, live music, cold beer... warm sun and Jerk Chicken!!!!
4. Hacienda
We met our dear friend, Jonnelle at Hacienda - even before we became full time county residents. She is still our favorite bartender!! We love a tall beer, a basket of chips and salsa, American Idol on the TV and our barstools while we catch up with the life and times of Jonnelle.
5. Cereluean
Mediterranean and Asian cuisine - Tapas and Sushi.... and the BEST Lobster EVER!!!!
Nice wine list.... and peaceful atmosphere in the Village at Winona.
Honorable Mention - while not in Kosciusko County ... two other favorites include
Time Out Inn, North Manchester, IN and Market Street Grille, Wabash, IN
