Cafeterias that feature shrimp and grits, braised short ribs with small batch bourbon glaze, various assortments of kale, house made guacamole, almond-crusted pan seared wild-caught trout, and orange jello with mayo on top.

Can't believe it isn't *just* "Still", tbh.
Toby will never go to another restaurant other than Ruby's in Lexington until he dies, so not sure why it even matters.
-Lexington's void of legit Italian Restaurants has always been kinda weird, imo. Seems like one of those downtown would crush. Isn't it still just basically Portofino & Guiseppe's there? Has there even been a new one in the last 20 years?
-Food Halls/Markets rule.

Exposed wooden beams.
Industrial chic light fixtures.
Marble countertops.
And voila. You’re a “bourbon bar.”

“Food Halls” have gotten really popular here lately, basically fancy food courts - pretty much a cafeteria.
I go on a boat about once a year - and usually after about six beers I insist on driving it, usually like a complete asshole - hopefully that makes everyone feel better.
Miss living in a college town - you Lexington folks I’m sure take for granted the sights once spring hits. I’m always reminded when I go to Keeneland.

In real Southern Comfort food news the Lyles BBQ family are opening a sister restaurant in the old Willie’s location.
I order food from my phone and eat it on my porch just like nature intended

Why? The void of any unique restaurant is weird. If it isn't a Husk or Dudley's ripoff then why even open it?
But if you want a Shrimp & Grits, Airline Chicken, Steak Frites, Bar Menu Burger, or glazed Pork Chop... you got some serious options.
Lexington is a genteel Southern gateway that goes over the top to reinforce its Dixie-land bona fides. They, no doubt, shunned an early 20th minority immigrant class and the implications are still being felt by its culinary scene TO THIS VERY DAY.-Lexington's void of legit Italian Restaurants has always been kinda weird, imo.

Think I’m wrong: Look to the Fazoli’s: its genesis, hometown, and conditions that brought to to bear. (Get some facts and come and see me.)
Jonathan Lundy is opening one in City Center.
That's all the restaurant info I have for the day.
My town is getting a new italian restaurant called LaRosa's. This is a pretty big deal. Will instantly become the #1 pizza in the city, and 2nd best in the county. Very exciting.
You really don't understand the Lex restaurant clientele, at all. It definitely isn't Wolfgang Puck-esque. A few unique places is all that is going to thrive in this town, and it takes a special one to stay open longer than a couple of years. Put a Rafferty's or Cheddars on every corner, and they will all be busy.
I like hacienda and drakes. Pretty much the only 2 places I pick up for dinner anymore. Both located in the crown jewel of jessamine county, Brannon crossing
Last time I saw UKO was at Rafferty’s, TS.
I ain’t mad at their sunshine chicken salad or prime rib sammich.

- First bourbon bar I ever frequented was actually at PTI’s house in St. Matthews. TS.
- Thanks, BRax. Appreciate the sound advice from an expert craftsman.
- Anyone who has an issue with Rafferty’s doesn’t deserve my friendship.
- Cincinnati does Italian pretty well- PrimaVista, Nicolas, Sotto, etc.

Bella Notte on Nich Rd —> also still open.
Y’all don’t know shit about Lexington’s Italian dining scene.

Sotto is actually a donut place that serves Italian food on the side
I bet that extra piece of bread keeps em coming back for the burgers.
Love this 2 hour Duke Infomercial on ESPN.
I remember the good ol days when this was UK's night.
Now we get fringe lotto/first rounders who "tested the process for 12 hours" before a quick "14 out Lexington!" tweet.
CHASING DREAMS!

Well, well, well... An annual rite of passage is upon us. It looks like our resident dildo assistant coach is about to strike out on another premier recruit once again in a 2 horse race when McDaniels chooses Washington.
Way to go, Joel! Go create another another caricature of yourself & stick it up your millennial ass! DJ PM cocksucker.

Hoping Afghanistan wins this lottery.
Interesting idea to change this process so it makes no GD sense and then add a woman to make bad jokes and passive-aggressively insist everyone get more excited.

I kind of like Hall of Fame Coach John Vincent Calipari having a team with nothing but small forwards and point guards next year. He'll still probably try to start Montgomery and Richards, tho, but still.
I hate literally everything in this world.
Zion is like fuccccccccccccck
Looking forward to the day when this event includes a few contemporary pop singers and drunken fans.
We have the #1 class.
Dammitall.
They've been good one season since I've been out of middle school. Continuing to give a frog's fat ass is a me problem, not a them problem. Whatever. Enjoy Arby's
