The 2013 Taste of Northern Cincinnati took place on Sunday, February 24, Noon to 4 PM, at the Sharonville Convention Center.

Our appreciation to our 2013 Presenting Sponsor, Kroger

“What a great event! Delicious food, happy people, and a fun time,” said Ron Hill, who reflected the feelings of many.

“It exceeded all our expectations,” Debbie King said. “We loved the single entry price as opposed to paying per taste. Getting to vote for the best awards added a fun participatory element beyond eating.”

The Taste of Northern Cincinnati at the Sharonville Convention Center hosted over 1,000 guests to a yummy diversity of food, fun, family & friends. All indoors and for one small cost, "What an awesome concept and you pulled it off magnificently!” said Kelly Meyers.

Restaurants presented guests with generous portions of their specialties, while vying for awards in five categories. Sharonville Chamber President Rich Arnold said “…every restaurant here is a winner. The satisfied expressions on each guests face said it all!
