Celebate Repeal Day throughout the city Monday evening [Food & Drink]

The 21st Amendment is a reason to celebrate: consume a five-course dinner at Bourbon's Bistro or join the Repeal Day Party at Proof on Main.

There was once a dark time in our nation’s past. Come to think of it, there have been plenty of dark times in our nation’s past: the Civil War, the Cold War and McCarthy’s witch hunts, the Nixon administration... and Prohibition. The 1920s have become very romanticized in our minds - this was the time of flappers, speakeasies, and snappily-dressed gangsters. Al Capone himself is said to have frequented the Seelbach right here in Louisville.

Chef Michael Paley took Proof on Main to culinary heights in 2006 and has kept it there [Food and dining]

You have to hand it to a chef who can make roasted octopus a must-try menu item. I would venture to say that octopus is a tough sell anywhere outside southern Italy, or Greece, or Japan, but chef Michael Paley put it on the Proof on Main opening menu in 2006 and hasn’t been able to take it off since.

Emeril Lagasse loves Louisville, and so should you [Food and dining]

Emeril Lagasse, chef, TV host and creator of kickin' it up a notch, had a lot of nice things to say about the Louisville food scene while he was in town Sunday for the inaugural Fork, Cork & Style festival at Churchill Downs.

Emeril Lagasse's history with Louisville is as rich as the cherry cornbread pudding he created during his visit to Derby City.


The chef, TV host and creator of kickin' it up a notch was in town Sunday for the inaugural Fork, Cork & Style festival at Churchill Downs. In person, Emeril is more toned down than what viewers saw on Emeril Live, the show that catapulted the chef into superstardom. Instead, the real-life Emeril was more like the guy on Essence of Emeril - passionate about food, but more approachable and subdued.

Five Louisville restaurant desserts to try this summer [Food and Dining]

Fresh flavors that cure boredom with the common dessert.

Dessert seems to be an afterthought in many restaurants. All the other items on the menu might be planned and coordinated to the nines, but dessert is often an unoriginal, unispiring assortment that doesn't really fit with the rest of the menu.
