CINCINNATI (FOX19) - The 26 members of Greater Cincinnati Independent Restaurants have recently launched a new program that rewards our patrons with points that can later be converted to discounts on future visits.

Using the group's Rewards Card, local foodies could ultimately knock up to $100 off their next tab.

"We hope the program creates loyalty to independent restaurants in the community," says Michelle Brown-Kilimnik, the executive chef at Jag's Steak and Seafood in West Chester. "We not only want people to dine in our restaurant, but sample all the other great independents around the city. We want to increase the awareness of the great food Cincinnati has to offer."

Local, independently operated restaurants provide the soul and distinctive flavors of food that help define a sense of place. We create local fare with local flair that are original to Greater Cincinnati.

The program is straightforward.
