Black Owned Food Businesses in the Miami Valley

By

The observance of Black History Month this year brings an opportunity for a much-needed focus on supporting Black-owned businesses. Black Americans make up about 12.4% of the country’s population, but Black business owners represented only 2.4% of all employer-firm owners according to data from the U.S. Census Bureau. Supporting Black-owned businesses goes beyond making a purchase. It is an investment in the economic empowerment of our community by contributing directly to job creation, wealth accumulation, and community development.  We’ve highlighted a few of our locally black owned eateries.  Please add your favorites in the comments below, so we can highlight them in a future post!

Soft Opening for The Dayton Barbeque Co at Carillon Brewing

By

Eric Evans

It’s a new era fro Carillon Brewing Co, powered by  The Dayton Barbecue Company.  Owner Eric Evans is know for southern style of barbeque- cooked low and slow. He established his business in 2021,  doing pop-ups at breweries around town and in March of 2024 they found  what he thought would be a permanent  home at Hidden Valley Orchards in in Lebanon.

They were a huge success there, selling out of their brisket, pork, spare ribs most weekend.  Their mac and cheese and collard greens became customer favorites. But in Dec of 2024 Evans announced he was looking for a new home, after HVO owners Randy and Robyn Lane shared some upcoming changes with him.
When Brady Kress, president and CEO of Dayton History, heard they were looking for a new home, he approached Evans about taking over the food service at Carillon Brewing and it seemed like a good match. Evans approached his buddy Chef Ashley Ashbrook, who may be familiar to many from his Oregon District hot dog cart, Blind Dogs, to come on as Executive Chef and run the kitchen.

Guests can expect a menu that celebrates barbeque and Evans shared his excitement about his new Marketplace Salad loaded with veggies and smoked chicken,and crispy pork belly and house made dressings.  In additions to his mac & cheese, they’ll have crispy brussell sprouts with abalsamic glaze, house made pickles and onion straws and  Carillon Pretzel twists with home made beer cheese. Down the road look for locally made sausage to be added to the menu. For dessert, you’ll be able to enjoy a smoked apple bread pudding with a butterscotch topping.

New Thai and Japanese Restaurant in Miamisburg

By

Last month Ariake Sushi Bar & Restaurant in Miamisburg was sold. The new owner Penn, is no stranger to Thai restaurants as she grew up in the family restaurant business.   This will be her second restaurant as she also owns Penn’s Thai Grille in Bellbrook.  The Miamisburg business has been renamed Thai Smile and Sushi Bar and will feature  sushi, homestyle Japanese  & Thai dishes, as well as sake. New signage will be coming soon.

The menu offers  savory Pad Thai and creamy curries and there is a sushi bar where you can watch the creation of  handcrafted sushi rolls.

I started my meal there with the Thai Appetizer Combo, which included 2 crispy spring rolls, 4 cream cheeses rangoon, 3 fried pot stickers, 1 egg roll served with sweet and sour sauce.

Penn shared that her favorite dish is pad thai, so of course I ordered it.  It’s Rice noodles stir-fried with egg, green onion, bean sprouts, carrots, homemade Pad Thai sauce, which is sweet and tangy, garnished with chopped peanuts.  You can order it with chicken, vegetables, tofu, beef or shrimp.  I chose the beef, shrimp combo which ran $19.99


We also tried the Bourbon Fried Rice which was grilled marinated ghicken cooked with homemade brown sauce along with fried rice tossed with egg, white/green onions, brown sauce) and sprinkle of scallions.

They are currently running a Special Welcome Offer for new customers where you can get $5 off your first online order of $20 or more with the code First5 – available exclusively on their website!

The ninth annual Bloody Mary Showdown, presented by RAD’S Bloody Mary Mix, who won our 3rd Showdown,  is now in the books.  Around 300 guests acame out to Top Of the Market this afternoon to sample tomato juice and vodka cocktails from 11 different vendors.  But they were was so much more than just those two ingredients. Spicy, fruity, dill pickle infused and even a ska themed breakfast cocktail were served up by the many creative bartenders on hand today at this event produced by Planned2Give.

As you can see from above garnishes played a big part in the drink and there were a lot of  cheese, peppers, salami,  bacon, citrus and even some cocktail shrimp.  Mudlick Tap House basically had a build your own garnish set up to compliment their dill pickle infused bloody mary.

First time entrant SushiNero was voted best garnish!  They created a banana leaf packet, fried a cocktail sausage and cut it to look like an octopus with a stuffed piquillo pepper and through the magic of molecular gastronomy they turned rum, lime and wasabi into pearls served on a spoon with their cocktail

And when it came to table decor, the people declared that SushiNero was the best, giving them their second win of the night.

Newcomers to the event, Entropy Brewing Company, the newest brewery in downtown Miamisburg placed in the top three of the peoples choice.

First time competitor Sparky’s Lounge on Watertower Lane in West Carrollton,  placed amongst the most voted for of today’s bloody mary’s.  But  it seems no one was able to beat Loose Ends Brewing, which took home the three-peat, winning again with Mr. Kents Bloody Mary- named after the owner’s late father.
