Many of you might recognize Bobby Plump as the player from Milan who hit a last second shot to lift tiny Milan High School to victory over the Muncie Central Bearcats in a late 50s IHSAA Championship game. It's the event that inspired the movie "Hoosiers."

Plump's is a little pub/restaurant in Broad Ripple. It feels like a "family room," comfortable and conducive to good conversation. And the food matches up with the atmosphere. The Southern Poor Boy Hoagie has lots of BBQ pork; the nice, tangy sauce is sweet but not TOO sweet. The quesadillas are wonderful. The only downside we've encountered is that the onion rings appear to be frozen, not hand-battered, but to me that's a minor thing.

The well-prepared food is served promptly by friendly people who are not overbearing or too familiar. Due to Indiana smoking laws, folks under 21 are not allowed on the premises. A nice touch: on the patio, folks are allowed, even encouraged, to bring their dogs with them while they dine outside.
