什麼！我竟然拖這麼久才分享二月清單（拍謝拍謝）！那我就不廢話，快點進入正題！

What?! I can’t believe it took me so long to post my February list (apologies!) Without further ado, let’s get into it!

strong’s Brock Oven Pizzeria

我們一家人超愛吃比薩，尤其是GH愛到一人至少能吃一大片！這家是辛辛那提比薩連鎖店裡我們的最愛之一，餅皮吃久了很香。前菜記得點artichoke dip。烤比薩的爐子是從歐洲特別運來的！

We love pizzas as a family, especially GH can each eat a big slice! This is one of the chain pizzerias in Cincinnati that we love. With their oven imported from Europe, the crust has just the right amount of crisp. Don’t miss out on their artichoke dip appetizer!

6846 Wooster Pike, Cincinnati, OH 45227

週末限定！讀了網站介紹，老闆從西岸來，讓我想到在聖地牙哥吃到最好吃的可頌，也讓我有很高的期望。尤其是剛到時，濕冷天還是有好多人排隊。原本已經放棄離開，但做完事後決定開回來看一下。太好了，人潮已退去。買了三種可頌：原味、起司牛肉、松露起司蛋糕。外殼酥脆，但裡面沒有奶油香也比較偏乾，沒有我心中可頌那油油卻輕盈的口感。

Weekend only! According to their website, the owner hails from the West Coast, which reminds me of a very delicious croissant place in San Diego. Had very high expectations for this place. There was a long line even in the chilly rainy weather. I gave up and left when I saw the line, but decided to come back after I was done running errands. To my surprise, the line died down. I bought three different kinds of croissants: original, pastrami and cheese, and truffle cheesecake. Crispy and flaky on the outside, but lacks the buttery scent when you tear it in half, and the inside is kinda dry, I was a little disappointed, tbh.

Penguin Walk at Cincinnati Zoo

https://cincinnatizoo.org/events/penguin-days

企鵝們準備退休了，這是最後一年辛城動物園企鵝遊行。超多人都來看企鵝，好險現在夠冷，不然天氣高於50度企鵝就在家休息。我和UN為了找位置，把我媽帶丟了。結果我媽竟然被工作人員帶到一個超級清楚的地方看企鵝，和我媽相遇時，我媽一直說企鵝太可愛了，還說GH很像小企鵝！我和UN沒看到啊！！！

Penguins are retiring! This would be the last time Cincinnati Zoo hosts the penguin walk, so the walkway was jam-packed with enthusiastic onlookers, all hoping for a glimpse of the cuteness of these tuxedoed birds waddling. The walk would be canceled if the temperature rises above 50 degrees. UN and I were too busy finding a good spot that we lost my mom. My mom was then escorted by a zookeeper to a prime spot for watching the penguin walk. After meeting up with my mom, she wouldn’t stop telling us how cute the penguins were, and even said they walk like how GH walk! But UN and I didn’t get to see anything!!

Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra

終於能和UN一起來聽辛城交響樂！只能說辛城樣樣強，交響樂當然也不遑多讓，太開心能和UN一起在星期六晚上一起享受這麼棒的音樂。

Finally able to come to a Symphony Orchestra performance with UN! Cincinnati has many strengths, and its Symphony Orchestra is definitely one of them! So happy that UN and I get to enjoy this beautiful performance on a Saturday night.

Rooted

3010 Madison Rd, Cincinnati, OH 45209

帶著濃濃加州感，主打有機和clean diet！除了果汁和三明治，他們的甜甜圈意外的好吃，而且吃完不會有罪惡感！！

With its California roots, this place headlines organic and clean diet. Aside from their fresh juices and sandwiches, their donuts are surprisingly delicious also! All the taste, without any guilt!

artichoke dip from Strong’s Brock Oven Pizzeria

Happy New Year! January 2024 has been so busy, UN has been on call almost every single weekend. I’ve also arranged a few play dates for GH. What a fulfilling and satisfying start for the new year. Wishing everyone a 2024 where your dreams come true!

新年快樂！2024一月忙到不行，UN幾乎每週末值班，我也幫GH安排一堆play date，充實又滿足的新年開頭。希望大家2024年能心想事成！

Carl’s Deli

Even on a rainy day, there’s still a long line. Takeout only, and the wait can be long according to online reviews. But I only waited for five minutes before I got my order. The worker recommended numbers 18, 21, and 23. We ordered Gorlami, Roast Beef and Havarti on Croissant, and Crab and Artichoke Salad. The sandwich sauces were nicely done, but I think the sandwiches would taste better if they are toasted.

即使大雨天，店裡還是有好幾組人排隊。只限外帶，網上評價說速度非常慢，但我沒有等太久，大概不到五分鐘就拿到我們的食物。店員推薦18、21、23號。我們點了The Gorlami、一號Roast Beef and Harvarti on croissant和crab and artichoke salad（完全沒聽店員話）。三明治的醬配的很好，但如果麵包能烤過，三明治一定會更好吃。

The Baker’s Table

1004 Monmouth St, Newport, KY 41071
https://bakerstablenewport.com/

Their sourdough is to die for! The perfect moisture and softness of the bread, just the first bite made me fall in love with this restaurant. Ending with the olive oil cake could not have been a more ideal way to conclude the night! The Baker’s Table closed down their pizza shop at the end of last year, but turned it into a kitchen workshop, where you can learn how to make sourdough, pizza, and pasta. Every Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday they also sell fresh sourdough there, but you must order online.

這酸麵包驚為天人的好吃啊！完美發酵讓酸麵包口感帶有濕度的蓬鬆感，咀嚼完不會太酸。開始用餐第一口就讓我愛上這餐廳，最後的甜點Olive Oil Cake劃下完美句點。The Baker’s Table去年底剛關掉對面的pizza店，現在改為煮飯課，有教酸麵包作法、pizza、和pasta，但幾乎是一票難求。每週三、五、六能買到酸麵包（需網路預訂），讓上不到課的我也能在家享受被我稱讚到不行的酸麵包。

Sugar ‘n Spice

1203 Sycamore St, Cincinnati, OH 45202
https://www.eatsugarnspice.com/menu-OTR/

A nostalgic and very charming American diner with a colorful interior. After the meal, the waiter brought over a plateful of rubber duckies for the guests to pick one and take home.

美式diner風格設計，裝潢顏色好繽紛，非常有特色。餐後，店員拿了一盤店裡招牌小鴨給客人挑。

Jungle Jim’s

4450 Eastgate S Dr, Cincinnati, OH 45245
http://www.junglejims.com/

What kind of store exactly is this!? You can find everything you can think of. Sorted by countries, you can find all kinds of delicacies here. They also have a huge selection of cheeses and wines. We were here for almost 3 hours and didn’t even get through half of the store. The store is full of surprises, no wonder it’s a tourist spot in Cincinnati. The only downside is that you are guaranteed to walk away with things that were not on your grocery list.

這到底是什麼店！你想的到的食物，這裡絕對有賣！各國特色食物、名產，一定能在這裡找到。除此之外，起司和酒的種類多到我們逛了三小時，還沒逛完整間店。到處都有驚喜，難怪這裡是辛城觀光景點之一。唯一缺點，你會在這買一堆沒在購物清單上的食物（印度豆豆零食和新加坡鹹蛋黃魚皮⋯）！
