Falafel House: Best vegan food for your Louisville dollars
We entered hungry, and left only $25 lighter (including tax and tip). I had the veggie plate which is a fabulous assortment of hummus, baba ganoush, dolmades (grape leaves stuffed with seasoned rice), a green salad, and three falafels. The veggie plate is, in my opinion, the most beautifully presented thing at Falafel House. It's... Continue Reading →
Salad for breakfast
Flying El Al to Israel a few years ago, I was a little surprised when I saw a green salad on the breakfast menu. I thought it must be a mistake.

Back in the day, people used to tell me that Amy's green goddess dressing was the bomb. The only thing I can conclude is that making a decent salad dressing is some kind... Continue Reading →
Come Back Inn: A Historical Treasure
The crime partner came home, took one look at what I'd left on the stove, and gave me a short list of restaurants he'd rather go to than endure my cooking. I've learned not to sweat the little things. Life is too short. So we ended up at Come Back Inn, a Germantown Italian restaurant... Continue Reading →
Crazy delicious at HopCat
"I've been thinking about the portabella reuben for over a week," my husband informed me. That kicked off a magical dinner at HopCat, the Bardstown brewery that boasts pretty much every beer on the planet. Turns out they have an array of vegetarian food as well.
