Dining

Cincinnatians consume more than two million pounds of Cincinnati chili each year, topped by 850,000 pounds of shredded cheddar cheese.

Findlay Market is Ohio’s oldest continuously-operated public market and one of Cincinnati’s most famous institutions. The market is the last remaining market among the many that once served Cincinnati.

Cincinnati is also famous for its unique culinary delicacies. "Cincinnati Chili" is commonly served by several independent chains such as Skyline Chili, Gold Star Chili, Empress Chili, Camp Washington Chili, and Dixie Chili. This chili is best appreciated not in a bowl, as one would with the chunkier, "Tex-Mex" chili, but rather, as a sauce to cover a plate of spaghetti, covered in shredded cheddar cheese (3-way), the latter with onions or beans (4-way) or with both (as a 5-way), all topped off with oyster crackers and to some, hot sauce. It can also be placed on top of a hot dog in a steamed bun with mustard and onions, and topped with cheddar cheese (a cheese coney). Graeter's ice cream is also famous, especially for its Black Raspberry Chip ice cream and "Buckeye Blitz". Oprah is a fan and caused sales to skyrocket when she raved about the ice cream on her show. Montgomery Inn is a local barbecue restaurant that is internationally known for its signature sauce. Bob Hope would frequently have the restaurant's ribs flown to his home in California. LaRosa's pizza, another Greater Cincinnati tradition, is the most popular pizza restaurant in the area, despite stiff competition from National Brands such as Pizza Hut, Dominos, and Papa John's. United Dairy Farmers, a convenient/gas store, also serves as a "malt shop", reminiscent of the 1950's, where one can still get a scoop of UDF or Homemade Brand Ice cream, a milkshake, or a malt, while filling your gas tank.

This doesn't mean that Cincinnati lacks fine dining - the city is known for the quantity and quality of its many gourmet restaurants. Until 2005, when the restaurant closed, the Maisonette carried the distinction of being Mobil Travel Guide's longest running five-star restaurant in the country. And the former Maisonette's chef de cuisine, Jean-Robert de Cavel, has opened four new restaurants in the area since 2001. Jean-Ro's at Pigall's serves contemporary French cuisine, everyday authentic French bistro cooking is served up at Bistro Jean-Ro, French-Vietnamese fare at Pho-Paris, and delectable breakfasts and gourmet French pastry tarts at Greenup Cafe. Cincinnati's German heritage is also evidenced by the many eateries that specialize in schnitzels and hearty Bavarian cooking. Exterior The Maisonette (defunct) was North America’s most honored restaurant before it closed its doors on July 25, 2005. ...
