Fireside Pizza

In our home state of Ohio, while driving to our vacation destination towards Kentucky, we were pleased to stop and enjoy a freshly baked pizza in Cincinnati.



Fireside Pizza is a small brick oven style pizza restaurant in the building of what used to be an actual firehouse. It's a really decorative and fun place to eat. They keep the big sliding doors open for a breath of fresh air while you enjoy your pie!






All of the pizzas are made with fresh dough in a beautiful brick oven, and topped with only the best toppings and sauces.

We both decided on the most popular item on the Fireside menu which is called the "Redlegger Pizza". This pizza is topped with fresh mozzarella, red sauce, red bell peppers, red onions, and pepperoni. It's fired up until the crust is perfectly blackened and bubbly!




It was such a great surprise tasting this pizza. The appearance of the pizza alone really reeled us in.

As you can imagine... it was so tasty... I mean really tasty. It was a simple combination of toppings that carried such a great flavor combination. The sweetness of the red peppers alone was a great addition, and no other cheese could have worked better on this pizza than the one and only FRESH MOZZARELLA.

The saltiness of the pepperoni was a great touch to go along with the sweet red bell peppers as well. Just to give it a nice finishing kick, the red onion also comes into play beautifully, but to have all of these flavors on fresh oven fired pizza dough?? WE CANNOT ARGUE WITH THAT!



We were blown away by the amount of flavor in the pizza all together, but the sauce really stuck out for us. The sauce was not too sweet, but still very mellow tasting without being over the top tangy.

Seth said he would almost go as far as requesting a deep dish pizza from Fireside if they would make it. If you decide to go to this pizza place, you have to try the Redlegger for your first visit!

If you enjoy brick oven pizza made with fresh dough and fresh ingredients, then this is the place for you! You will be pleasantly surprised! We hope you've enjoyed reading our most recent food adventure, from the one and only Tasty Tidbitt!

Roosters, it's an Ohio thing!

We are so proud to be from Ohio for so many reasons, and Roosters being one of them!  Roosters is a restaurant that only 'Ohioans' or Ohio visitors know about. It's not a five star fancy schmansy restaurant, just a tasty and fun place to eat at on a weekend or after a long days work. The famous slogan really speaks for itself "A fun, casual, joint", but it doesn't happen to mention the delicious food they have available!  We are regular Rooster customers, we usually go a couple of times a month. We usually stick with our favorites from the menu, but you really can't go wrong with anything they have to offer. Whether it's the loaded nachos, a burger, or their tender boneless wings dipped in your choice of TOP OF THE LINE wing sauce, you wont be disappointed. Most of the time we go with the boneless wings drenched in tangy sweet Thai chili sauce. The quality of the meat is unbeatable, but the big kicker for us is the sauce. The sweet

Amorino has the Gelato

  Oh gelato, you make me smile, especially in the form of a beautiful rose. Yes, you read that correctly, gelato in the shape of a rose. You can find this so called rose shaped gelato at Amarino in Chicago. After hearing about this place, I HAD to add it to our itinerary while we were back in the Windy City. Amarino is downtown, and we didn’t have that much trouble finding parking. We went later in the afternoon; I would say around 5 p.m. and found Amarino to be especially empty. When you enter the double sliding doors (cool touch) you will be right in front of their gelato selections. They have a wide selection. We came for the rose, but you are able to get a simple bowl instead as well.  When finally deciding what flavors we wanted we ended up with Pistachio, cookie butter, and chocolate. The flavors went very well together. We watched in awe as the server sculpted a beautiful rose master piece in front of us. It turned out so pretty!

Fatso's.. hopefully Not-so Last Stand

Fatso’s Last Stand is a "somewhat" fast food restaurant that can also be found on the outskirts of Chicago. When it comes to hot-dogs, Chicago is the place you want to be. For those who may not know, the traditional Chicago dog includes an all-beef frank placed on a poppy seed bun, with a lot of toppings such as, white onions, bright green sweet pickle relish, a dill pickle spear, tomato slices, pickled peppers, and lastly yellow mustard. Out of the many, many, places in Chicago you can find a great hot dog we wound up at Fatso’s. Not only does Fatso’s offer great hot-dogs, they have their own spin on hamburgers. The burger is famously named “The Fatso Burger” and we couldn’t leave without trying both. When ordering you’ll also notice that all of their hot-dogs are served Chicago style, but you can add or remove all the toppings that you would like. Fatso’s has a few different types of hot-dogs to pick from in terms of the meat and style
