It’s been a long time coming, but 15 N. Fort Thomas Ave has a new owner and new plans for a restaurant, which will begin energizing a lagging Towne Centre District. The property was officially transferred from Fowler Properties on Monday. Mark Fowler bought the property from Warner Investments in 2012 for $490,000. No figure […]

NKy’s Pizza Challenge – Mio’s Pizzeria
We started out on NKy’s Pizza Challenge back in October of last year. For a while there, it seemed like we were hitting up a different pizzeria every week. We’d roll deep into a restaurant, armed with notebooks and iPads, write our individual reviews, and scare the collective crap out of servers and owners alike. […]
Nky’s Best Pizza Quest: Toppers
I feel like all I do is write about pizza these days. For that reason, as soon as Mio’s in Fort Thomas opens, we will bring this feature to an end and focus on Mark vs. Food (which will be Saturday, February 18 – details to follow on Friday). Toppers, located in Highland Heights in […]
NKy’s Best Pizza Quest: Pepperoncini’s Pizza
I wasn’t sure exactly where Pepperoncini’s was located. Looking back on it, I’m sure I’ve driven by it on the way to coaching the Lady Hawks at Pendery Park hundreds of times and just not noticed it. But it was dark and I was sans Garmin. Heading down the newly repaired route 8 and into […]

Nky’s Best Pizza Quest: 915
I know what you’re going to say, the 915 Pub and Grill isn’t known for their pizzas. And they aren’t. But in the midst of the Christmas hustle and bustle, we needed to settle down into the local watering hole which offered us something others couldn’t: convenience. The 915 (is it “nine-fifteen” or “nine-one-five”?) is […]
NKy’s Best Pizza Quest: Raniero’s Pizzeria
We had a smaller crowd for this week’s pizza challenge, as Darrin was out of town. Good news for FTM readers, as that means you are spared once again from my mug via video. Raniero’s in Cold Spring (on Martha Layne Collins Blvd) has been the furthest we have traveled from the bubble that is […]
Nky’s Best Pizza Quest: Buona Vita
Our fourth stop for Nky’s Best Pizza Quest was Buona Vita, located on Fairfield Ave. It’s a bit past the Bellevue Business district in Dayton. We had high expectations for this stop on the quest, as it was one of the pizza locales highlighted in Cincinnati Magazine’s best pizza article. Word of mouth also holds […]

NKy’s Best Pizza Quest: Dewey’s Pizza
Well, it’s Thanksgiving weekend, and I can’t think of any food more synonymous with Thanksgiving than pizza. Wait, what? I’ve obviously had too much coffee. The FTM crew visited Dewey’s Pizza on the Levee on Tuesday at the behest of many commenters on the blog and our Facebook page (like us here to receive more […]
