The Eclectic Bites of Cincy Gourmet Deli
By Claire Lefton,
2024-05-22S ettled directly across from the University of Cincinnati, Cincy Gourmet Deli juggles diverse cuisines. American deli classics like tuna salad, hot-pressed paninis, and Reubens share the menu with Mexican and Mediterranean favorites ranging from quesadillas to falafel. It’s the perfect place to go when you don’t know what you want. If the Nashville hot chicken sandwich doesn’t tempt you, maybe a fresh Greek salad will.
The chicken shawarma wrap (with pickles and garlic mayo, in a flour tortilla) offers some of the tastiest shawarma in the city. The deli makes the filling in-house, and it doesn’t cut corners. There’s a shocking amount of chicken in each wrap, a savory blend of light and dark meat with tons of flavor and minimal grease. Pickles add a refreshing crunch and the garlic mayo brings it all together.
A great meal deserves a great dessert, and the deli’s baked treats range from baklava to carrot cake. If you like coffee, though, there’s only one choice—the tiramisu. Light, fluffy cake blends seamlessly with generous layers of cream. It’s delicate but not too sweet, and the espresso notes sing through each bite. Don’t worry if you’re too full for a slice right away. Desserts come individually packaged and safe to save for later, so they pair well with leftovers.

Why “A Christmas Carol” Matters
Whether Ebenezer Scrooge is played by Alistair Sim, George C. Scott, Michael Caine or a duck, the central character of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol is an iconic grouch. He’s the 19th century version of the guy yelling at the neighborhood kids to get off his lawn, the meanie who won’t give their ball back once it lands in his yard. But he’s also, next to the person on whom the entire season is based, someone who represents one of the most important tenets of our humanity— the understanding that we are responsible for our neighbors, and that in acting on that belief we grow and become better people . That beautiful notion is also the core value of The Foodbank Players , which makes our third annual production of the play something nearly sacred.
