Cincinnati Spotlight: Findlay Market

by snackface July 8, 2012 Uncategorized

I’ve been spoiled. The first food market I ever experienced was San Francisco’s Ferry Building. Years later, I was in awe of Cleveland’s West Side Market. And just last week, I finally made my way to Cincinnati’s famous (or Cincinnati-famous) Findlay Market. As both a Cincinnatian and a food person, I am embarrassed to admit that I [...]

1. I went out with my ladies on Friday and basked in their effervescence! A.Lip is seen here, displaying my mug. Don’t you l.o.v.e. her hair? Chic, fresh and bold.
