I grew up in Cincinnati. Though the Midwest may not be glamorous, I am proud to know about a few Ohio pleasures.
First of all, Cincinnati has Graeters Ice Cream. A French pot process of pouring molten chocolate into freezing, churning cream yields massive irregular chocolate chunks. Second, there is Skyline Chili. The secret recipe is packed with elements of chocolate and spice and is served over spaghetti and hot dogs. There’s LaRosa’s Pizza, which should get honorable mention, though pizza is a touchy subject for New Yorkers.
I mention these delicacies not to brag or taunt, but to entice you to go to Cincinnati Night at Edward’s restaurant in TriBeCa. Once a month, the Cincinnati-born and bred owners get all the goods shipped to the Big Apple. Cincinnatians pack in to devour their hometown comfort food. It’s an ebullient sight to be seen, especially since the Bengals are doing well this year.
The next ‘Nati Night is October 23rd, the day after our boys play The Panthers at Paul Brown Stadium for the first time ever.
