GOOD FOOD
With more than 2,500 restaurants to choose from, eating out
in Louisville shouldn't be a problem, unless you are one of those
unlucky souls who have trouble making up their minds. But another
problem might pop up if someone recommends Kentucky Burgoo as
a menu choice. Don't panic, it's just a regional stew dish.
If you love the variety of a cafeteria, you'll want to drop
by the Cravings A La Carte, 101 S 5th St., First National Tower,
502-589-4230; Jay's Cafeteria, 1812 W Muhammad Ali Blvd., 502-583-2534;
Hall's Cafeteria, 1301 Story Ave, 502-583-0437; or Piccadilly
Cafeteria, 133 Hurstbourne Pkwy., 502-423-1733.
For a quick bite stop at Arbys, 3349 Fern Valley Rd., 502-968-2375;
Bojangles Famous Chicken, 3353 Fern Valley Rd., 502-969-1239;
Burger King, 2700 Crittenden Dr., 502-637-8887; or Diary Queen,
2058 Portland Ave, 502-774-5565. Or you can rush on over to Lee's
Famous Recipe Chicken, 2925 Brownsboro Rd, 502-896-4694; McDonalds,
3350 Preston Hwy., 502-368-7940; Rally's Hamburgers, 1249 Bardstown
Rd., 502-458-5941; Subway, 4945 Brownsboro Rd., 502-426-1162;
or Taco Bell, 1069 Bardstown Rd., 502-452-1450.
For a sit down meal stop at the Cracker Barrel, 1401 Kentucky
Mills Dr., Jeffersontown, 502-266-8895; and Kunz's Fourth &
Market (founded 1892), 115 S Fourth Ave, 502-585-5555, which
holds the distinctions of being Louisville's oldest restaurant.
If seafood is what you crave then head to the KingFish Restaurant,
3401 Bardstown Rd, 502-459-1432.
If you feel like treating yourself a little bit head to local
favorite, Jack Fry's,
1007 Bardstown Rd, 502-452-0244.Here you will find goodies like
lobster pot pie, crimson snapper, wild mushroom burgers, and
toffee brownies and chocolate souffle cake to finish your meal
with a smile.
Another local and Southern Living's Off the Eaten Path favorite
is Lynn's Paradise
Cafe, 984 Barret, 502-583-3447, open for breakfast, lunch
or dinner. Here you'll be tempted by wonderful dishes like Kenny's
Kentucky breakfast scramble, B & L hash browns, bourbon ball
French toast, BLT fries, pan fried pecan chicken and the Paradise
hot brown.
And you aren't done yet. The locals, along with Southern Living's
Off the Eaten Path, also love the classic hot brown and mint
juleps served at The
Brown Hotel, 335 West Broadway, 502-583-1234. If you are
stopping by during lunch you might also consider either their
express or full lunch buffets, offered Tuesday-Friday from 11:30-1:30.
If you enjoy a relaxing cup of tea, you'll want to spend some
time at the White Line Tea Company, 1325 Bardstown Rd, 502-456-0747.
For a great breakfast, drop in at the Blue Dog Bakery & Cafe,
2868 Frankfort Ave, 502-899-9800 or just take home one of their
yummy loaves of bread to snack on later. Another great breakfast
choice is Toast, 736 E Market St, 502-567-4099, where you'll
find yummy choices like lemon souffle pancakes or The King--a
peanut butter and banana fried sandwich.
Does the sight of a happy little donut heading toward your
mouth make you smile? Then you need to rush on over to Krispy
Creme Donuts, 3000 Bardstown Rd, 502-451-4880 to buy a sack of
grin makers. Rather scream for ice cream?
Then you'll want to head to the Homemade
Ice Cream & Pie Kitchen, 2525 Bardstown Rd, 502-459-8184;
(which puts you in the fun to explore Tyler District) or at 1370
Veterans Pkwy, Clarksville, IN, 812-288-6000. But before you
go let me give you fair warning--this was some of the best ice
cream and cake I've ever had. So if you are planning on staying
in Louisville for more than a couple of days plan on packing
your big pants cause you will find an excuse to go every day!
Another good choice is Gaeter's Ice Cream, 2204 Bardstown Rd,
502-451-0044.
