OK yeah Cincinnati has pretty good food. It's just that its middle eastern food is fine compared to Dayton (really Beavercreek). Dayton also has excellent Vietnamese food.

And yeah Cincinnati's problem in my experience is that it has a lot of the same draws as Columbus (food and museums), but usually worse

Oof, it's been too long since I've had vietnamese... might have to head to Linhs. Dayton is definitely lacking in good Middle Eastern food. surprisingly good Mexican food though

I remember great middle eastern near the base, but that was years ago. Can't get a decent gyro in Ohio outside Columbus and I'll die on that hill

A lot of good stuff around the base closed over the last 10 years. Flying Tiger (best chinese) is gone; the owners retired and the building was sold, torn down to build a burger King in its place which subsequently failed as a business.

Ope, that sucks. I grew up getting food in Beavercreek and it was always amazing. The whole Dayton area has gotten worse and worse over the years, though all of Ohio has really.
