Thrillist sending props to cleveland... thrillist/eat/nation/cleveland-detroit-and-houston-food-scenes-underrated-food-cities-thrillist-nation Cleveland has been punching very far above its weight in the food and craft beer scene in recent years. Having traveled all over the world and been a food and beer tourist on most continents, I am still thrilled when the plane touches down here in Cleveland, and Im back in this Mecca of local food and local beer. Cleveland is a post-industrial frontier town with affordable real estate and a culture of collaboration between chefs and brewers alike. Being surrounded by some of the best farmland in the country, there is little distance between farm and table, and thus farmer and chef. In my Ohio City neighborhood alone, I can walk out my door and, within a 15min walk, find 50+ chef-driven restaurants and bars. With two openings slated for this Spring, well also have six brewpubs all within the surrounding blocks. Forbes magazine just wrote a piece about Cleveland being the new Brooklyn. And while they meant it as a compliment, were actually much more a new Cleveland with our own authentic and edgy flavor.
