My brother and sister-in-law just flew in from California for Breeders' Cup. He had heard a bit about The Blind Pig so we all dashed out last night around 8 PM. We were able to get a table right away (but they were still pretty packed.)
Where to start? Suffice it to say it was all wonderful. We started off with signature cocktails (I had a French 75, my brother the Bacon Manhattan and my SIL the Awakening.) Sublime, all of them. We followed up with a shared order of oyster fritters that were so flavorful with a great thinly crisp fritter coating. I then had the mussels(fantastic) Tim had the Cassoulet (he loved it) and Kathy had the Ivory Bacon (I think. Honestly, I ad my face planted in my mussel bowl too long to really notice much else. We had a great meal, great service made even better because our server was very knowledgeable about their wine list and paired everything with the appropriate glass of wine. We shared a bowl of Comfy Cow ice cream and left happy campers. What a great restaurant to show our race visitors how wonderful Louisville can be.
