We had a wonderful time exploring Cincinnati and trying many delicious food tastings. Marcia loves her city and gave us so much information. We sampled Scottish, Italian, Mexican, had good chocolate at the Findlay Market and banana pudding. Everyone was welcoming and kind. I would highly recommend this tour.

Had a delightful time with Beth as our tourguide. I learned so much about the city that I though I knew. We had cheesy bread at Metropole, with an amazing Rookwood tile floor, then on to Nicholsons for bangers and mash, made with sausage made solely for them. Then on to Mazunte Centro with authentic Mexican taco and Chip and salsa. We could get a drink at those places if we wanted or had water provided in the cost. Tips for the servers were included too. Then we took the streetcar up to Findlay Market for some amazing banana pudding, some unique chocolates and some cheese and fudge. We also had the option to stay at the market longer if we wanted. Beth made sure we all knew how to get back on the streetcar with no problems. My favorite piece of info was that the streetcar is free. That's really great to know for the next time I come downtown. I think that they must rotate some of the restaurants, but they all are local mom and pop places, so I assume they would all be just as tasty. Wear good walking shoes and bring a little shopping money for the market. Highly recommend.
