2009 Taste of the Independents
Thursday, May 7, 2009
Smith Brothers Hardware Building, Columbus, OH

The 2009 Taste of the Independents was a huge success! This wonderful partnership between The Buckeye Ranch and Dine Originals Columbus brought together the best in locally-owned and operated restaurants and featured many tasty culinary creations.

Great food by some of the area's best chefs!



Diane Warren, owner of Katzinger's Deli & President of Dine Originals Columbus, with Nick Rees, President & CEO of The Buckeye Ranch Foundation welcome the crowd!



Leslie James of CD101 thanks the crowd for supporting locally owned and operated organizations.





New this year, "the 5th floor" offered guests some of the best food and beverage in Central Ohio.... not to mention the fabulous skyline view.
