The Queen City Takes A Bite Out Of The Economy

Cincinnati has been trying for a decade to recover from the mass Exodus of many entertainment establishments which began in the early 2000's and may have found hope in reinventing itself as an eclectic haven for food and festivals.

And this past weekend was a prime example.

Bock Fest Friday Night

The streets of Over-the-Rhine were filled with people celebrating Cincinnati's brewing heritage and the coming of spring. It's kickoff parade led thousands of people to Bock Fest hall located in the old Husman Factory located just north of Liberty; where several awards for parade entrants were handed out.

Joe's Diner Saturday

Joe's opened last year, bringing back traditional American fare at an affordable price. Its a perfect place to get a "morning-after" meal without breaking the bank.

Make Your Own Omelet

Sausage, Mushrooms, Onions and Smoked Gouda

&

Hash browns

Fork Heart Knife Sunday

Stepping up the culinary competition, Fork Heart Knife is a welcomed addition to the hum-drum normalcy that we have grown accustomed to here in The Queen City. It's intimate dinning area, affordable prices and ever changing menu only add to its appeal.

Biscuit with Sausage/Squash Gravy

&

Roasted Red Potatoes

I have to say that the casino will only add to the area's appeal and hopefully, more fuel will be added to the economic fire; using food and festival as fodder.
