Just recently, the 2012 State of Downtown Cincinnati report was released to the public.
And I am pleased to announce that my photo is on the cover of the report!

Click here to view the 2012 State of Downtown report. I have at least one photo on almost
every page of the report. Including this older photo of the inside of our apartment, I counted
18 photos in the report that I took! 🙂

We hope everyone had a Happy Memorial Day! We spent ours at Taste of Cincinnati again.



There was a bird man there…

And a Batman…

Haribo was giving away a bunch of little packs of Gummi Bears and happy Colas all weekend.
But today, they really stepped it up. And were giving them away by the pocket-full to anyone
who walked by. Yeah. I got some gummis. What? You wanna fight about it?

Gummi Happy Colas and beer. It’s a winning combination.












And the final thing we ate again was a Korean BBQ Quesadilla from Red Sesame…

The perfect end to a perfect Taste of Cincinnati weekend! 🙂

More Taste of Cincinnati goodness for us today!


We started out with a Bee Sting from C’est Cheese…

And a Wheels Burger from Cafe de Wheels…





These guys spell sammich the same way I do…

We almost tried the Chocolate Covered on a Stick…

But thought $4 seemed a pricey. Michael Jackson was there…

I agree. That rocks…

Henry the Hand…

Whoa… Take it easy there, Handy. You’re in public.

And we wrapped up our Taste of Cincinnati Sunday with some Cincy Brass…





Some Red SesameKorean BBQ Quesadilla goodness…



And an inside look at how C’est Cheese makes their cheesy deliciousness…







Another great day at Taste of Cincinnati! 🙂

Today marked the start of Taste of Cincinnati 2013! There was an eerie calm before the
storm when we were out walking the dogs this morning. It was odd. Taste of Cincinnati
but without any people…




But when we went back a couple of hours later. There were plenty of people…










Of course, we had to hit up Food Truck Alley…





And we ran into our friend Gretchen while we were there…

Taste is off to a great start! 🙂

Since Party in the Park was cancelled due to “anticipated” storms this evening, we thought
that this might be the perfect time to go and check out the new 21c Cocktail Terrace on the
roof of the 21c Museum Hotel. The capacity of the terrace is only around 85 people. We were
hoping the threat of “anticipated” storms would check the masses away for the evening.









































I can’t believe that no one ever realized the vision of bringing a rooftop bar to downtown
Cincinnati before this. But I’m sure am glad that we have one now. It’s quite the spectacular
place! 🙂 Click to see all the photos I took at the 21c Cocktail Terrace.

Pizza Tower tweeted that their Pizza Truck was going to Fountain Square for lunch today.
I’ve never tried Pizza Tower pizza so I thought I would go check it out…




It wasn’t the best slice of pie I’ve ever had. Not horrible. Just not bad. And I guess that’s okay.

Tonight, there was another concert at Horseshoe Casino. Last week, we saw The Killers.
This week, The Shins. We walked up to The ‘Shoe to once again see what we could see.

We found the same spot we stood in last week where we could see the stage…





















Pretty cool… for free. 🙂

We went back to Asian Food Fest this afternoon with one singular purpose…



And that was to eat as much Red Sesame as we could!

We tried their Korean BBQ tacos…


Awesome stuff! That sauce that they put all over their stuff is just incredible!
And then we went back and got the Korean BBQ quesadilla and taco combo too…

YUM! We can’t wait to eat more of their deliciousness at Taste of Cincinnati next weekend!

Great afternoon! Click to see all the photos I took at this year’s Asian food Fest.

Today was also the birthday party for one of the kids at Genifer’s old preschool…




Happy birthday, Aubrey! We hope you had a great day! 🙂

Today is my sister, Shannon’s birthday! Happy birthday, Shanu!

We miss you. But I think Milan misses you even more!

We hope you had a great birthday! We love you! 🙂
