I am returning to the shores of Lake Michigan for the rest of June and part of July and I want to extend a thank you to the dining halls and bars that I will surely miss:
Proof, a bar and restaurant that has the panache and style to rival the best of New York City
Corbett's, where the graciousness of the ambiance and food are only rivaled by the delightful patio.
Le Relais, a French bistro that creates some of the most consistently good food in Louisville.
Seviche, my home away from home. Thank you Anthony for your warmth, kindness and your cooking. You always bring me back to one of my favorite cities, San Juan, Puerto Rico
Varanese, both the ribs and the brisket will remain in my culinary memory.
Baxter Street Station is the quintessential bar and grill with an emphasis on fun and good food.
610 Magnolia where between the restaurant and the wine tasting room you are guaranteed a gourmet experience by Edward, Chorben and the gang.
Selena's is a restaurant we would be eating at every week if we just lived a bit closer to Anchorage.
Asiatique, a restaurant which brought me back to Asian food. (I had announced I did not like Asian food a few years ago!)
L & N Wine Bar, I promise to finish off that bottle of rum before I return to Wisconsin permanently in August.
Thank you all and I will miss Louisville's restaurants terribly for the next six weeks. However, maybe I'll lose that "pot belly" I have mysteriously developed since arriving in the "Ville" in February.
Take care.
Phil
