Insightful insights into the Montgomery Inn

Recently, Cincinnati's own Montgomery Inn Boathouse has been in the news because the president stopped there for some ribs. Which I guess is the reason that WKRC interviewed Dick Gregory about the restaurant.

I'll go on record and admit that I'm one of the few people in the world who's not a big fan of their barbeque sauce. I know, Sacrilege!

I'm actually not a big fan of barbeque sauces in general, especially sweet ones like Montomgery Inn's. When I go, I'll order a steak and enjoy it just as much as everyone else enjoys their ribs.

In a former life, when I was a freelance journalist, I had the opportunity to interview Dick Gregory. It was for a small feature in a local magazine about expensive drinks, and he really didn't need to take the time to talk to me, but he couldn't have been nicer. He gave me probably 15 minutes, when the interview could have been over in 5. I really appreciated that, and when he tell WKRC that he considers the restaurant business to be all about service, I know how much he believes in that philosophy.
