Big changes in the works for Metromix

Posted by rrichardson September 1st, 2012, 9:00 am Post a Comment

MetromixIt may be Labor Day weekend, but we’re not taking the holiday off here at the Enquirer. There’s way too much work to do.

Metromix has had a great ride for the past three years, sharing news of all the great events, restaurants, music, bars and clubs Greater Cincinnati has to offer. But now it’s time for us to shake up the status quo.

So on Sept. 19, we’ll be publishing our final issue of Metromix. But don’t worry – we’re still going to provide all of the same information, just in a different place and format. Metromix readers are getting a lot more of their entertainment information digitally, and we’re evolving along with you to deliver news the way you want it.

We’re currently hard at work relaunching Cincinnati.com’s Entertainment channel – consider this the Extreme Makeover: Entertainment Edition. We’re going to combine all of our entertainment coverage into one easy-to-navigate web site.

It’ll feature the same information that is in Metromix – event photos, calendar listings, music interviews, dining, bar and club news – plus information about performing and visual arts, theater, TV, radio and media, movies and pop culture. It’ll also have more of the features that readers have been asking us for – more roundups of fun things to do, cool places to go, and great places to dine, with lots of picks from Enquirer dining critic and reporter Polly Campbell. We’ll have a new mobile app, to help you decide where to eat and what to do while you’re on the go, and a new tablet app, showing all your favorite event and dining galleries in a larger, more dynamic format.

Thanks so much for always reading, and stay tuned – there are a lot of great changes in the works.

Mason’s Arloi Dee Thai Bistro wins Readers’ Choice award

Posted by rrichardson November 10th, 2011, 10:55 am Post a Comment
Arloi Dee

Arloi Dee Thai Bistro has been named among the top 10 Thai dining restaurants in Cincinnati, as decided by readers in Metromix’s annual Readers’ Choice dining guide.

Arloi Dee Culinary honors are nothing new for the Mason eatery, which has been voted the best Thai food by many Cincinnati area publications, garnered a Best Pad Thai award, named a Stunning Thai Find and won numerous awards at Taste of Cincinnati.

Metromix concludes:

Some like it hot, but you can get it mild, too. Arloi Dee has been said to have the best Asian Cuisine by several different local publications. Its food reflects Chinese and Thai, as well as a touch of some other Asian cultures. Arloi Dee has something a little extra that other Asian restaurants sometimes don’t: dessert. Their creative Asian-infused desserts are sure to delight, like the Thai custard with sticky rice.

The Lumsum family opened this second location of a downtown Thai restaurant in 2002.  The Mason location at 4920 Socialville-Foster Road features a large dining room, outdoor patio and sushi bar.

Enquirer food critic Polly Campbell has written that its Thai menu probably offers the most exotic food in the area, with Thai curries and stir-fries and a good choice of small appetizers.

Lunch 11 a.m.-2 p.m. Monday-Friday; dinner 5-10 p.m. daily.  For more information, call 513-229-3997.

Have you dined at Arloi Dee?  Is it deserving of a Readers’ Choice award?  What’s your favorite dish?
