Columbus, OH Good eats -- No Chains!!!!

There is a noticeable dearth of threads about Columbus OH. I come here 7-10 days every 4-6 weeks, and am still struggling to find good places. Here are my favorites: Starliner Diner and The Yard Club in Hilliard; La Plaia and a Middle Eastern Place in a biggish strip mall off of Cleveland Ave. (sorry to be vague here, its near one of my customers) and Figlio's. As my office is near Hilliard, West side recommendations will be especially appreciated. Also any recommendations for real Chinese food or other Asian. I'm from Seattle, and the Chinese food in Columbus (up to now, but I'm willing to be convinced....) falls far short. Thanks to all who respond!
