It's a double-feature of guests this week on That's So Cincinnati.

Jean-François Flechet, owner of Taste of Belgium: He tells the unique story of how he went from crunching data at Nielsen to building a Cincinnati waffle-making empire. He offers a candid assessment of The Banks, where Flechet has one of his four restaurants. Flechet also discusses his efforts to help the restaurant industry overcome the stigma of substance abuse.

Gabe Davis, Hamilton County prosecutor candidate: The Democrat discusses why he's running for office; his background growing up as the son of a police officer; and what he would do if elected to the top office in local politics. He also has a message for those who are doubting whether he can win the primary.

Also this week, That's So Cincinnati co-hosts Jason Williams and Sharon Coolidge address the issue of "waterless" fire hydrants, a public safety issue that has come to light in the wake of last fall's massive house blaze in North Avondale.

What other hydrants around town have low water pressure? The city has no idea, and fire officials are pushing City Hall to address the issue.
