This Cozy Indiana Restaurant Is Now Nationally Renowned For Its Crispy Southern Fried Chicken

The fried chicken here sizzles in 14-inch cast-iron skillets filled with hog fat. That stubborn, old-school method helped earn a James Beard Foundation honor in 2023. I love that a tiny Indiana dining room won national praise with flour, salt, and a bold hit of black pepper. No trendy sauces.

Cicada Cinema to open movie theater on Bloomington's near west side

This story has been updated because an earlier version included an inaccuracy. After 10 years of showing and promoting movies throughout the Bloomington area, Cicada Cinema will soon have its own theater space for films on Bloomington's near west side. Since May 1, dozens of people have helped in transforming the space at 615 N. Fairview St., Suite 1, so the volunteer-run nonprofit can open its own theater. Previously Cicada Cinema has screened films at the Orbit Room, the Back Door, Hopscotch Coffee, the FAR Center for Contemporary Arts and many other venues including city parks. Josh Brewer, manager, anticipates offering longer runs of new movies. The project "got bigger and better," he said after he purchased almost 70 theater seats from Wolf Cinema multi-plex in Greensburg, which closed. "They just couldn't run a multi-plex in a small town," Brewer explained. After buying the seats, Brewer and others had to detach the seats bolted to the floor inside the old cinema, getting dirty in the process from both the grimy floor and the seats. After transporting them to Bloomington, it took 9 1/2 hours for a team of about 20 volunteers to clean them in the parking lot outside the
