Hats off to your beautiful city!

My wife and I just got back from a brief weekend trip down to Cincinnati. We drove in from Milwaukee on Friday morning. The point of the trip was to go to GABP for the brewers/reds game on Saturday. It was quite the whirlwind trip, but man did we have a blast!

We had reservations for the tasting menu at Wildweed on Friday evening. Excellent restaurant, highly recommend. Then we drove out to Creekside cigars to pick up some cigars.

Saturday morning we got up early and hopped on the connector and went up to Findlay Market and got a goetta egg and cheese from Eckerlin’s. I would have gotten about a dozen more but we wanted to eat brunch at Mid City restaurant. Both of those were recommendations from one of the chefs at Wildweed. Mid city was unbelievable. Best Bloody Mary I’ve ever had in my life, and the food we got was honestly probably better than Wildweed.

Then we went to the game and we gave our Elly bobble heads away to two young reds fans who didn’t get one. GABP is an amazing ballpark in a great location. The rain delays sucked, but were used to a roof top at home… and the brewers lost despite their best efforts.

Sunday morning we got up early and went to Brown Bear bakery (another chef recommendation) and got basically one of everything and ate them all on the ride back to Milwaukee. Another absolute gem in your beautiful city.

Frankly I wish we’d have stayed a few more days because there was so much more we wanted to do (eat more goetta), but thankfully it’s only about a 6-7 hour drive down there and we will definitely be back!
