"When Bouquet opened in 2007, chef-owner Stephen Williams embraced local, sustainable farming before it became trendy in the wider Cincinnati restaurant industry. Bouquet still has a reputation as the place vegetarians and vegans can go for upscale dining, but it also offers regionally sourced proteins like Maple Leaf Farms duck — served with mushrooms, roasted carrots, smoked grapes, and parsnip puree — and Eggleston Farm chicken breast with garlic-lime crema and mango pico de gallo." - Andy Brownfield
