Dining
While Cincinnati is known for its quality restaurants, the it is perhaps best known for its brand of chili, which is usually served over a bed of spaghetti and topped with cheese. This delicacy is often associated with fast-food restaurants, the most famous of which is Skyline Chili, located in Clifton, Cincinnati. Opened in 1949, by Greek immigrant, Nicholas Lambrinides, the name of the diner was taken because of the breathtaking view that restaurant had of the Cincinnati skyline. It is important to note, however, that Cincinnati chili is not chili con carne, that is, the meat-based chili that originated in Texas. Rather, it is more like a sauce that is used to garnish other foods, such as pasta or hot dogs. The Skyline is still open today and can be easily considered the most popular restaurant in the city.
