Food Delivery in Cleveland: An Overview

Cleveland

The second largest city in the state of Ohio, Cleveland is situated on the shores of Lake Erie at the mouth of the Cuyahoga River. Due to its strategic position on the lake, Cleveland grew during the 19th century and beyond as a major transportation hub for shipping and many prominent manufacturing companies set up shop in the city. Unable to avoid the fate of so many similar Rust Belt cities, Cleveland struggled to keep itself afloat during the end of the 20th century, defaulting on its federal loans at one point. Since then, Cleveland has seen a recovery process as sectors of the economy, such as healthcare, become world-renowned. Across the city are many restaurants offering traditional American cuisine, typical of any Midwest city, but sprinkled in between are a variety of unique and authentic cuisine options.

Tremont:

South of downtown and located along the banks of the Cuyahoga River is the Tremont neighborhood. Known for its many art galleries, interesting architecture, historic churches, and a museum dedicated to the movie, ‘A Christmas Story,’ the area is also the site of many great restaurants operated by world-class chefs. One of the oldest settled areas of what is today Cleveland, Tremont once was home to a sizable German-American population. Popular among younger couples and millennials, the neighborhood has undergone a revitalization over the past few decades making this neighborhood one of the most popular in the city.

Cleveland Cuisine

Pierogies

Originating in Eastern and Central Europe, the Pierogi is a favorite of many Cleveland inhabitants. Considered a national dish in Poland, the Pierogi is made by wrapping dough around a filling and then cooking the dumpling-like creations by boiling them in water or pan frying them. The filling can be either sweet or savory and is often potatoes, meat, fruit or cheese. Get a delicious Pierogi delivered today from Pierogi Palace in Cleveland.
