Let’s Talk About Balls
Posted on July 23, 2024 by Ching under Travel.
There was a huge hailstorm on our first night in Omaha.
The hail was HUGE! Biggest I had ever seen.
The sound was so loud as it pounded the roof and side of the house. It totally freaked Saki out. She still has PTSD from that major thunderstorm in Rockwall when a tree branch broke the window in our bedroom in the middle of the night.
Balls were kind of the theme of the day. Earlier that night, before the storm rolled through, Brian and I had dinner at the Blackstone Meatball in the Blackstone district. It was a good thing we ate when we did because we finished dinner and got back to the Airbnb early enough that the hail hadn’t started yet.
It’s a neat little restaurant that specializes in — you guessed it — meatballs. Brian and I started with their meatball flight so we could sample the various types of meatballs they offer.
For my meal, I ended up getting spaghetti and meatballs with the pork meatball.
Brian got a meatball sub with a classic meatball with the spicy diablo sauce and waffle fries.
I think we must have been there during happy hour because I got a refreshing cucumber cocktail. It was yum!
Actually, the food was really good and were pleased with our choice for dinner. The only thing we didn’t like was the vegetarian meatball. It was cold and tasted gross.
Other than that, the rest of our meal was great and the service was great. We highly recommend checking out this place whenever you find yourself in the area. Until next time!
