New this year, the Chamber offers a free iPhone app (a Droid version is available as well) that will help festival guests navigate over 40 food vendors. The app promises to enhance guest experience by providing booth map and menus to discover new and favorite samplings from over 200 food and beverage offerings. It also features an event schedule along with an entertaining photo booth feature.
Make a bee line to J. Gumbo's for some Bumblebee Stew. Then head over to Pit to Plate for a pulled pork BBQ sandwich with slaw. Strasse Haus breaks the rules with fried peanut butter and jelly and Keystone Bar & Grill will make you swoon with their Buffalo Mac & Cheese. Do yourself in with some real Schnecken from Queen City Cookies.
In addition to plenty of eats and drinks, the festival includes live musical and comedy entertainment all weekend long. A complete schedule can be found here.
East Row Mama's personal pics include dancing yourself silly with the Naked Karate Girls Saturday at 4:00pm on the Fountain Square Stage. Kick up your clogs with the bluesy, bluegrassy acoustic sounds of The Tillers on Sunday at 4:30pm on the Metromix Stage at P&G Gardens. For a dose of some killer good piano blues, check out Ricky Nye Inc. on Monday at 2:00pm on the Government Square stage.
Taste of Cincinnati always happens along Fifth Street between Race and Broadway with Fountain Square at the center of the action.
Admission is free. Parking is easily accessible all around downtown in garages, surface lots and on the street.
East Row families can catch a ride to the fest on the Southbank Shuttle Trolley at several stops along East Third Street in Newport between Hofbrauhaus and the Newport Aquarium for a dollar per person.
