See all formats and editions
A Cincinnati food writer shares a fascinating and fully illustrated homage to the Ohio City’s culinary history and most beloved eateries.
 
Cincinnati is the home to food innovations, rivalries and restaurants that stand the test of time. The Queen City boasts the invention of both Cincinnati chili and goetta, the beloved breakfast meat. Legendary establishments like Mecklenburg Gardens, Arnold’s, Izzy’s and Scotti's have all operated for over a century.
 
The French restaurant Maisonette was the epitome of fine dining, and Wong Yie’s Famous Restaurant elevated America’s Chinese cuisine from street fare to an exotic experience. Busken Bakery and Frisch's vied for Cincinnati pumpkin pie supremacy by taking digs at each other through billboards and redecorating a Big Boy statue in Busken attire. Author Dann Woellert explores the most iconic eateries, the German influence on Queen City food and what makes dining so unique in Cincinnati.

If you are as old as dirt, like me , and are from the Cincinnati tri-state area.....especially if you moved away like me so many years ago, this book is a most. Errors and all, it is a trip down memory lane, a very pleasant trip. Things you probably have not thought about in years will come flooding back. Interesting, informative...sometimes a little too detailed...and fun. Great little book. Highly Recommemded

So many memorable past moments in Cincinnati restaurant history. My wife and I have dined in many of
these restaurants time and time again, and sadly most are gone. To wit, Cincinnati had three five star
restaurants at one time. Reading about them brought tears. It is nice to know they are remembered

good history and information on the many historic restaurants in Cincinnati. Having lived in Cincinnati when most of these restaurants were flourishing, I found this history not only fascinating but also a trip down memory lane. Dann Woellert has done an excellent job of selecting those food spots that mirror the history of the Queen City. Well worth the time to read and absorb the wonderful information provided in this enjoyable book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting, but not always reliable.

This book contains some pretty interesting anecdotes. The problem is – can I believe them? Unfortunately, the book contains many errors and misstatements. Maybe the most glaring is the repeated misspelling of the Izzy Kadetz’ family's surname as “Cadets”. Ugh. But elsewhere, Woellert discusses “Johnny and Carlo” (instead of “Carlo and Johnny’s”), claims that Grippo’s does not sell plain potato chips (they do!), asserts that haggis originated in “Teutonic (sic) Europe”, and misnames Paul Dixon as Paul Gibson. And I’m pretty sure that the Temple Deli on 7th Street closed long before 2006.
