Ninth Street has been the red line restaurateurs and diners were loath to cross.
It’s a street that literally and figuratively divided Louisville. Never mind that it’s within crawling distance of Museum Row (Frazier History Museum, Louisville Slugger Museum, Kentucky Science Center, Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft), restaurants and 21c Museum Hotel.
What matters is that it is the edge of Portland, a faraway land of … well, who knew? What was actually there or not there is beside the point. The impression was that whatever it was should be avoided.

Of course, didn't mean to shock. But there are others who write about restaurants from time to time and this week's issue had one of those. Sure makes me appreciate your reviews and the C-J's as well. Check it out:

Wait! I'm LEO's restaurant critic. Or was there another food story about Over The 9? I haven't picked up the print edition yet, but whatever you read was not the alt-weekly's restaurant review. That was my work, and it was about Fontleroy's. And no vaginas were involved, or male parts either.
