After reading the title, do you picture white tablecloths on a candlelit table?

I have to admit… Continue reading What’s for Lunch: Ward 426
The Eagle Has Landed and it Brings Fried Chicken
I love how fried chicken has exploded on the dining scene across the country as if it’s something new. In the poultry realm you got good ole country style fried chicken, Nashville style hot chicken, different breading and batters, and a plethora of other topics to debate about in the food nerd world. But fried… Continue reading The Eagle Has Landed and it Brings Fried Chicken
HopCat: Not What I Expected
CONFESSION: I try not to judge anything or anyone. Sometimes I have to try really hard not to judge an incoming restaurant before it even opens. It’s not because I’m super special or that my fourteen years in the restaurant industry somehow trumps everyone else’s experience. I’m human, and it seems to be our human… Continue reading HopCat: Not What I Expected
HopCat Opening Soon in the Highlands
In case you’ve missed the massive amount of construction on the corner of Bardstown and Grinstead, there’s a new restaurant/beer joint preparing for a grand opening in the Highlands. The construction has made it somewhat difficult for me to park and grab one of my favorite burgers in Louisville at Highlands Tap Room, but I… Continue reading HopCat Opening Soon in the Highlands

Louvino: One of the Best Meals I Have Ever Eaten
Have you ever taken a bite of something and immediately dropped your shoulders, looked up to the sky making one of those faces like “how could it be so amazing”, and involuntarily started making noises to celebrate the huge freakin’ flavor party that’s happening in your mouth? No? Just me? Well, thanks for not judging… Continue reading Louvino: One of the Best Meals I Have Ever Eaten
Stout Burgers & Beers Should Run For President
Given our country’s current situation with the approach of an election year, we are surrounded by political ads and social media arguments about which presidential candidate will jack this country up less than the other. Would I vote for a burger and craft beer restaurant if it ran for President of the United States? Maybe.… Continue reading Stout Burgers & Beers Should Run For President
New Highlands Restaurant: Fontleroy’s is Fabulous
It’s no surprise that Allan Rosenberg’s new restaurant in the Highlands looks, feels, and tastes the way that it does. If you’re at all familiar with any of Allan’s previous work as a chef then you will know that Fontleroy’s, on the corner of Bardstown Rd and Grinstead Dr, is the perfect combination of where… Continue reading New Highlands Restaurant: Fontleroy’s is Fabulous
New in the Highlands: America. The Diner.
It used to be sushi or a shoe store or something. I guess it used to be a lot of things, but most recently it was delicious breakfast. While it’s a bit of a bummer that we no longer have Eggs Over Baxter in the spot on Baxter Ave between Chase Bank and O’Shea’s Irish… Continue reading New in the Highlands: America. The Diner.
Stout Burgers and Beers in the Highlands is Stout Indeed
Around the beginning of July the new burger and craft beer joint out of Los Angeles, Stout Burgers and Beers, opened its doors on Bardstown Rd in the Highlands.
