Cincinnati Event Third Thursday

Finally, the food. Caitlin really did us right this month, complete with homemade ravioli stuffed with braised beef, mascarpone cheese, and lemon zest served scotoni-style (see the whole menu). The wine was the featured ingredient and it made the food come alive.

We wrapped up a Francis Ford Coppola themed Third Thursday just this past week.  The setting was absolutely gorgeous – the rooftop of The McAlpin – and the temperatures just low enough to be able to really enjoy an outdoor event. Of course the beverages were quite delicious and the fine folks at Francis Ford Coppola really impressed the crowd this month with their wine selections. A HUGE thanks to them for helping to make Third Thursday come alive this month.  And the people, oh the people. To those of you who are repeat Third Thursday guests it is ALWAYS so great to see you (you know who you are) and welcome, welcome to our new friends. We sure hope you enjoyed the night.
