Gourmet Magazine called our location "the prettiest street in the antique neighborhood of Ohio City, just west of downtown." Our proximity to downtown and accessibility to the rest of metropolitan Cleveland makes it the ideal location for your business or pleasure lodging.
The ambiance is relaxed and elegant. You will be delighted with the combination of a homelike atmosphere with privacy. You will rest in the comfort of luxury cotton linens and room to stretch out. Enjoy the garden any time of day. Your breakfast is prepared from fresh, organic ingredients and brought to your suite, the deck, or the garden patio, whichever you desire.
The suite consists of three rooms all located on the third floor. They are tastefully furnished with a mix of antiques and contemporary pieces. The bedroom has a full-size antiques "Jenny Lind" style bed, window seat with street view, library of books, and spacious closet. The sitting room is filled with amenities: telephone, television, an antique desk, and a comfortable futon sofa. This room is great for all of your business needs. The dining nook includes a small refrigerator and microwave oven with room to eat your breakfast and read the morning paper. The private bath is easily (and privately) accessed on the second floor next to the verandah overlooking our garden. The futon sofa opens to a full-size bed to accommodate a larger party of guests. We invite you to enjoy our urban oasis!

In Your Space: Ohio City Pasta maker keeps it fresh

 
Monday, September 17, 2007
Douglas Trattner
Special to The Plain Dealer -- Find this article at: http://www.cleveland.com/plaindealer/stories/index.ssf?/base/business-0/118993224926680.xml&coll=2

A fine layer of flour covers pretty much every surface in Gary Thomas' pasta-making shop, Ohio City Pasta. The insidious white powder clings to walls, equipment, paperwork and, yes, even Thomas.

When Thomas, a culinary-school graduate and chef, started his company 17 years ago, he had about two dozen local restaurant accounts. Today, his fresh egg pasta is on the menus of hundreds of restaurants, some as far away as Virginia, Minneapolis and Louisville. Home cooks can purchase Ohio City Pasta from a retail stand at the West Side Market.

But despite the company's impressive reach, operations remain surprisingly small. Every day, about 1,000 pounds of egg pasta is made by 12 employees in just 2,400 square feet of production space. Batches of spaghetti, fettuccini and linguini are mixed, rolled and cut on antique Italian equipment, much of it purchased from out-of-business competitors.

"We can remain small because most of what we make each night is shipped out the next morning," Thomas explains. "Our fresh pasta is literally made to order. If we're making it, it's already sold."

In a small adjoining kitchen, fillings for ravioli are blended in a massive industrial mixer.

"We're not trying to take over the world," adds Thomas. "We're just trying to take care of the chefs who appreciate quality."

Trattner is a free-lance writer in Cleveland Heights.
