David Greenberg

David Greenberg brought energy and enthusiasm to our Cooking Buddies events which 17 of us started in Sept. 1995. David had excellent suggestions which helped our group grow and improve. He shared his knowledge of great places to enjoy dinner. In addition to Cooking Buddies we started our "Dining Out" group and tried new places which included Brandywine Inn, One (no longer in business), Knotty Pine on the Bayou and Wild Ginger (only a "sampling" of the places we went). I know he had a group of fellows he called "The Cronies" who dined together - regularly.



Eventually some of our group joined "Food Chain" which merged into Meetup.com and now is Cincinnati Let's Eat Out. My dining groups are "The Cincinnati Brunch Club" and "Tea Toads" which have about two hundred members in each group. We will continue to honor David by preparing his recipes and dining out together! Thank you David!

Onward!
