COVINGTON. Looking for an authentic British pub experience? Save on airfare and make the short jaunt to Cock & Bull in Covington instead. The cozily appointed pub is decorated with dark wood and flags of the United Kingdom, and as you'd expect, the beer is high-quality and plentiful. Eighteen imported draft beers and many more bottled choices range from ales to ciders, stouts to bitters, with everything in between. Popular choices from the menu include a spicy version of bangers & mash, along with fish & chips (of course). Items more amenable to the American palate (the Queen's Nachos, for instance) are also here.

This place is not to be missed!

FOUNTAIN SQUARE PLAZA. Austere paneling and the formal waitstaff are punctuated by bursts of freshly cut flowers and the reflections of silver serving trays. Just adjacent to the lobby of the 113-year old Cincinnatian Hotel, the Palace serves four-star traditional cuisine along with exotic menu items such as tempura quail, tuna medallion pyramids and breast of chicken with pesto couscous.
