Laura is very knowledgeable, provided us with a lot of historical and cultural information about the people who immigrated here to live in this area. The selection of restaurants was varied, unique and tasty!!

What a fun way to get to know the city. Laura and her husband are incredibly gracious hosts. What's better: they LOVE, LOVE, LOVE their city, and they show it off with pride and fun! I learned so much about the food offerings of Cinci, as well as the history of German settlement there. Great lore, great food, and great way to spend an evening. Thank you!
