The three Cs and everywhere between
Columbus and its suburbs, Dublin, Westerville, Hilliard and Powell, send the most requests, with Cleveland's east and west sides and Cincinnati's northern suburbs close behind. Dayton, Akron, Toledo and Canton are regular stops, and so are the lake cottages along Erie in summer.

What Ohio hosts ask first
How does hibachi work at a graduation open house?
Guests arrive over a few hours, so the chef cooks in rounds instead of one seating. Tell us the window and we plan the food for it.
Can you cook for a Saturday tailgate at the house?
Yes. Morning starts are fine; just give us kickoff time.
Garage party if it rains?
With the door up and the grill at the opening, absolutely. It is how half of Ohio's open houses run anyway.
