T
he Harbour at Lakewood, conveniently located inside New Circle Rd. in the heart of the 40502, is a new luxury townhome living community with several homes currently on the market. Located on the reservoir off Richmond Rd., these residences, designed by architects Albert and Burnworth, offer beautiful views of the water and easy access to more than two miles of scenic trails for jogging and biking in the Lakeshore area. It is the only new lakeside development inside the circle, and is right in the middle of a idyllic and luxurious setting. Amenities at The Harbour include private gated access, a private community park, a pool and fitness center, valet trash s ervice, direct water access and a dock with a private boat launch. “It’s low maintenance living,” said Crystal Towe, the listing agent and broker for the homes. “All the maintenance is taken care of for you.” The Harbour is located near many popular restaurants and stores and just munites from downtown and the shops of Chevy Chase. It is close to Cassidy Elementary, Morton Middle School and Henry Clay High School. Unlike some luxury properties, The Harbour at Lakewood offers buyers creative control. They can consult an architect and custom design the interior of whichever floorplan they choose to live in. There are multiple options, customizable kitchens and vanity selections with several cabinet finishes, styles and hardware. There’s even an elevator option.
Other features include mahogany garage doors leading into an oversized garage, Pennsylvania bluestone or brick terraces with brick privacy walls and outdoor kitchen options, solid granite countertops in the kitchen and bath, white oak hardwood flooring with customizable stain colors, white oak finished stairs with ornamental iron handrails, large laundry rooms with cabinets and storage and wall to wall carpet in all bedrooms, with color options available. “Walking out onto the patio you feel like you are on vacation, so peaceful and quite.” said Towe. “The builder missed no opportunity to include luxury at every corner.” If you’re interested in seeing these homes, there are open houses every Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. To learn more about The Harbour at Lakewood, visit http://www.andovermgt.com/the-harbour-atlakewood/.

avid Eades is living in the past –– or rather, he is residing in a piece of his own past. A certain char ming house on Second Street with a wraparound front porch was his favorite house in Lexington while growing up. It was the home of his best friend, Reggie Crutcher –– the boys spent some good times there as kids and those good memories never left Eades as his life took him to places far away. Reggie lived in the sprawling house with his mother, Mary Crutcher, and his grandmother Ruth Farrow. According to Eades, the house was grand in the way it was meant, appointed with beautiful fixtures, rugs, and antiques. He and Reggie spent their childhood there, engaged in boyhood games; years later, they put together garage bands and played music in the attic. The house was called Avalon. Though Eades isn’t sure how it got its name, he thinks it was perhaps connected to the original owner’s fondness for King Arthur, as Avalon was the island where King Arthur’s sword Excalibur was for ged in the Arthurian legends –– a fitting reference, as the home became the location of two young boys’ dreams of adventure. After high school, Eades left Lexington for college at Tulane in Louisiana. After college, a lifelong love for architecture, building and design took him through decades of various constructionrelated careers in the New Orleans area. He called Louisiana home for 40 years, but he never for got Lexington –– or Avalon. “Reggie was a good guy –– we had a lot of fun together,” Eades said. “This house really stuck with me.” One day while contemplating a move and noodling around on the computer , Eades came across the familiar house listed for sale online. He knew that in years earlier the house had been sold and that his old friend Reggie had passed away. “Here I was after all these years, and there was my favorite house for sale,” Eades said. “I couldn’t believe it.” Eades was divorced, closing in on retirement and had been thinking of a life change and new environs. “I thought to myself, ‘I could buy Avalon and move back to Lexington,’” he said. And, after negotiating a sale price, he moved back to his hometown and into the house he been so fond of as a kid. The former owner had begun a renovation, planning to make the house into several apartments but had halted work on the house after deciding to sell. “I didn’t want to see it be made into apartments,” explains Eades, “so I had a lot of work to do to get it renovated. It was livable, but there was a lot of work left to do –– there still is. “I may never be finished,” he added. “I like to keep working on things.” Built in 1901, the home was originally owned by Peter J. Garland, the city treasurer. Other occupants include James Slavin, deputy county assessor, and Simon Speyer , a junior member of a family firm that, according to historic record, “dealt in hides, fur, wool, metal and Lord only knows

what all.” The house, which is on the National Record of Historic Places, is considered to be one of the most intact examples of Federal Revival architecture from the Second Street neighborhood. Eades rebuilt the front porch, installed five modern bathrooms, installed all new plumbing and electrical work, and added insulation to the home. He is quick to point out that as much TLC as the house needed, it also had a lot going for it with many well-preserved elements. Several of the house’s 10 fireplaces are intact and still functional; original art glass windows, pocket doors, original hardware and per haps one of the most impressive features of the house, a 60-foot entry hallway, The home’s kitchen all add to its historic charms. features a “spade” “The challenge is not to make a new building out graphic that Eades of an old one,” Eades explained. “After I toured Euembedded into the rope, I learned to appreciate buildings that are sound existing black-andand have retained their patina.” white tile floor; the home was once Eades is particularly happy with the spacious called “Avalon: backyard and looks forward to being able to eventually House of Spades.” turn his attention to some exterior features. There are plans for a deck and parties that can spill out into the PHOTOS BY ESTILL ROBINSON yard, which also retains touches of the Avalon’s past: a large cistern with a hand pump still stands and a rock wall from a past century marks the property line. With the home, Eades is feeding his long-running connection to history and architecture, in addition to his nostalgia. “When I was young in Kentucky, I had a summer job working on a renovation of the old Belle Breezing house. It’s been torn down now,” he added. “This is a part of Lexington’s history and my own personal history I wanted to save. Avalon is like a walk back in history.” Nearly a lifetime after he grew up here, Eades is happy to again call Lexington home. On a breezy afternoon, as he and his dog are out walking the neighborhood, neighbors stop to wave or say hello. It’s almost like he never left. cc

IN THE KITCHEN WITH ‘CRAVE’
The first in a four-part series leading up to the 2014 Crave Lexington food & music festival
C
rave Lexington, the second annual food and music festival produced by Smiley Pete Publishing, has teamed up with local media group Beard House Media and Lexington amateur chef Dan Wu (runner up from last year’s inaugural Crave Home Cooks Competition) to produce a series of instructional culinary videos called “Crave Kitchen Shorts.” Exploring topics ranging from “How to shop in an Asian market” to “How to get kids excited about vegetables,” the videos approach a handful of seemingly daunt-
ing culinary tasks head-on and break them down into fun, accessible and delicious experiences for anyone with an inkling of culinary curiosity. With acres of fertile growing land, an active and engaged regional far ming community and a local dining scene that continues to blossom and thrive, the Bluegrass region is a wealth of culinary opportunity. One of the goals of this four-part video series and accompanying articles, which will appear in the publication in the coming months, is to help you make the most of it in your own kitchen.
Read on for Wu’s inaugural “In the Kitchen with Crave” adventure, in which he leads us start-to-finish through the process of cooking a traditional Asian meal, and visit www.cravelexington.com to view the companion video, where you will follow Dan into the market and back to the kitchen to lear n how to make-fromscratch your own Asian-inspired dish. There, you can also find out more about the second annual Crave Lexington, taking place September 13-14 at MoonDance at Midnight Pass in Beaumont Center. cc

Asian Cooking 101 A lesson in preparing a traditional Korean meal, from market to plate BY DAN WU | CONTRIBUTING WRITER

14 | chevy chaser magazine june 2014
s an immigrant kid growing up in America –– first in Fargo, North Dakota, then Lexington –– I hardly ever went out to eat with my family. Instead, I grew up eating my mom’s home-cooked Chinese food (and the occasional treat of a KFC bucket). It wasn’t until I entered college at the University of Kentucky that I began spending my own money and discovering the world of ethnic cuisine. Despite its humble trappings and sometimes frustrating cultural inertia, Lexington in the mid ’90s paved the first stones in my jour ney as a culinary explorer; I had my first taste of unagi at Seki, pad see ew at Bangkok House and bulgogi at the long-defunct Seoul BBQ. Korean food in particular made a lasting impression on me: the smokiness of the beef short ribs grilling at the table, the funky-spicy unctuousness of kimchi and the savory-sweet balance of japchae. As a young adult living first in San Francisco, then in Brooklyn, I was lucky (and hungry) enough to have tried some killer Korean cuisine. Coming back to Lexington eight years ago, after nearly a decade away, I was pleasantly surprised at the cultural and culinary growth of my hometown –– a growth that has especially continued to blossom over the past few years. The venerable Korean restaurants Arirang Garden and Koreana now have some competition in the slightly-more-fast-food campus joint Han Woo Ri, as well as Seki K, a worthy full-service Korean alternative opened by the new owners of the South Broadway sushi restaurant of the same name. Tucked in the back of Dong Yang Market on Clays Mill, Seki K offers lunch on the cheap, with an array of superb small dishes (referred to in Korean cuisine as banchan) highlighting every meal. Although I love to cook all manner of cuisine, from French to Italian to Southern barbecue, Asian cuisine is a big part of my repertoire, and I shop for most of my Asian groceries at Dong Yang. From fresh shiitake mushrooms and shishito peppers to bonito flakes and frozen dumplings, the small but well-organized grocery is a onestop shop for all things Easter n. Recently, the store inspired me to take a crack at re-creating one of my favorite Korean dishes: japchae.
PHOTOS BY SARAH JANE SANDERS
A 400-year-old dish that originated in the royal court of Korea, japchae (pronounced chop-chay) began as a stir-fry of just vegetables, with the addition of noodles being a relatively recent change. Though it may sound strange, the noodles are made from sweet potato starch; they are very smooth and slippery when cooked. A miscellany of onions, spinach, carrots, shiitakes and beef often balance out the meal; my version replaces beef with pork (because I heart pork quite a bit) and adds toothsome white beech mushrooms. This version also includes bracken fern fiddleheads, which are available in some specialty markets but are little used –– likely because much debate has surrounded their edibility (note that these plants should always be cooked, as heat destroys certain carcinogens present in the ferns). Japchae is an extremely versatile template for creativity: other possible ingredients include snow peas, wood ears, peppers, (firm) tofu, bamboo shoots, zucchini and all manner of protein options. The possibilities are endless. Though usually served as a side dish to complement grilled meats such as bulgolgi (marinated beef) or kalbi (short ribs), japchae also works beautifully as a main dish. V egetarians can easily forgo the meat and replace it with tofu or other vegetables. Quick aside: Western cooks and diners commonly refer to “stir fry” as a kind of dish, but it is actually a cooking method –– an action verb –– and not an easy one to master at home without the volcanic heat of a restaurant burner. There are a few tips, however, that can help improve your technique. Whenever possible, stir-fry each ingredient separately to keep its individual flavor intact. Also, when you crowd a wok or large sauté pan with too many components, they tend to steam instead of sauté. Be sure to set your bur ner as high as possible, even waiting for a little smoke to waft before adding your oil. Keep stirring and moving your ingredients continuously to prevent them from scorching and add the sauces toward the end to keep the liquids from burning. Come to think of it, all these little tricks I lear ned at my mother’s elbow, impatiently waiting for dinner.
Home Chef to ‘MasterChef’ After coming in in second place at last year’s inaugural Crave Lexington Home Cooks Competition –– and being the only nonprofessional chef or culinary student asked to participate in preparing the 15-course Crave High Lo Slow Dinner –– Dan Wu gained a new sense of confidence as a culinary adventurer. So when a friend mentioned that the FOX reality television series ‘MasterChef’ was holding auditions in Columbus, Ohio last October, Wu said “Let’s go.” To Wu’s surprise and great delight, he was one of 30 auditioned participants from across the country who was chosen as a competitor for the current season and one of two Kentuckians to ever appear on the show. The season premiered May 26 and airs on Monday nights at 8 p.m. EST on FOX. Throughout the season, ‘MasterChef’ eliminates contenders through a series of culinary challenges testing their skill, passion and prowess in the kitchen. He wasn’t allowed to reveal how far in the series he made it –– tune in to find out, and check this magazine’s website for updates!

1123 DELAWARE AVE. LEXINGTON 40505
Dan’s Japchae INGREDIENTS • 8 ounces dried Korean sweet potato noodles • 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil • 1/4 cup ponzu • 1 tablespoon dark brown sugar • Vegetable oil • 1 medium carrot, peeled and cut into 1-1/2-inch strips • 1/2 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced • 4 ounces fresh shiitake mushrooms, stems trimmed and thinly sliced • 4 ounces white or brown beech mushrooms • 8 stems boiled bracken fern, cut into 1-1/2 inch strips • 4 ounces baby spinach • 1 scallion, thinly sliced • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds • 4 ounces pork loin, sliced into 1-1/2 inch strips • 1 teaspoon corn starch • Salt and pepper to taste
DIRECTIONS Bring a pot of water to a boil. Cook the noodles for five minutes, drain and toss with sesame oil to keep from sticking. In a wok or deep sauté pan, stir-fry onions in one ablespoon of oil for several minutes, until they are tender but still have some bite. Remove and repeat with each of the vegetables (carrots, shiitakes, beech mushrooms). In a bowl, mix the corn starch with the pork until it is absorbed. Add a tablespoon of ponzu and mix until absorbed. Then mix in water one teaspoon at a time until no more will absorb. This makes the pork very tender when cooked. Stir-fry the pork quickly until just cooked. Remove and reserve. Add one tablespoon of oil to wok and add scallions. Cook for 15 seconds, then add noodles, all cooked vegetables, pork, fern-bracken and spinach. Stir-fry until well incorporated. Mix in remaining ponzu and sugar and season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve with a sprinkle of sesame seeds and a drizzle of sesame oil. cc june 2014 chevy chaser magazine | 17

THE BEST (NEW) SUMMER EVENTS
PHOTO BY ERICA CHAMBERS
presents
In lieu of our usual summer entertainment spread — which has traditionally focused on providing exhaustive listings for as many summer series, festivals, fairs and other seasonal events as possible — this year we have opted to put a deeper emphasis on a handful of events that are new to Lexington’s summer lineup, many of which are entering their inaugural season in 2014.Though some of the events featured have been around for a bit longer, we have chosen to highlight them because we either feel they aren’t as present on the public radar as maybe they deserve to be or because they are doing something new or noteworthy this season. For those completists out there, we have also provided an “at a glance” calendar that includes dates and basic details for dozens more of the annual “usual suspect” summer events.You’ll find the most comprehensive events listings on our online arts and culture calendar, www.tadoo.com, which is updated daily. Lots of new developments are taking place all over Lexington, and those developments are echoed in the city’s growing cultural landscape — maybe this guide will even help you discover your new favorite event.

Sparkling Summer Sangria RECIPE BY SARAYA BREWER
INGREDIENTS
DIRECTIONS
Summer is the season for white wine spritzers, at least in my backyard. Whether it’s a simple blend of dry wine and club soda, with a squeeze of lemon or lime, or a fancier concoction bringing in sparkling blood orange soda, lemonade or orange juice, the possibilities for dressing up a glass of white wine or bubbly are virtually endless.
• 1 large cucumber, sliced thinly on the bias (3 cups) • 6 large radishes, thinly sliced (1 cup) • 1 4-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced • 1 cup fresh squeezed grapefruit juice (store-bought works in a pinch) • 1 750 milliliter bottle brut (dry) champagne or sparkling wine, chilled
In a large pitcher, combine cucumber, ginger, and radishes; add the grapefruit juice. Cover and chill for at least two and up to 24 hours; the longer you chill, the more potent the radish flavor will be.
Herbacious and savory, this refreshing take, a sparkling sangria adapted from a Home & Garden recipe, is perfect for a brunch party or as an early evening cocktail; it also pairs quite nicely with many Asian dishes (including “Dan’s japchae,” featured in this issue)
Just before serving, add ice cubes to the pitcher then slowly add champage, stirring gently. Serve in your favorite goblets over ice. Makes six servings. cc

Rustic Bread Quiche RECIPE BY JUDIE WEBB
I
developed this quiche for the Kentucky Coffeetree Cafè in Frankfort a few years back. I wanted to do something a little different for the cafè, and I figured if you can love a little quiche, you can really love a big, decadent one –– thus, the “rustic bread quiche” recipe was born. I always try to use as many local and organic ingredients as possible, and this particular quiche is full of those. The asparagus, pea shoots, eggs and greens came right from my home garden –– it doesn’t get more local than that! For the things I didn't grow myself (cheese, chives), I looked to the producers at the Lexington Farmers’ Market, as well as other local sources (flour from Weisenberger Mill, bread from Sunrise Bakery). Note: you really need a spring-form pan for this one, as there’s no way to get it out without those removable sides.
PASTRY CRUST:
EGG MIXTURE:
• 2 cups flour • 1 teaspoon salt • ¼ teaspoons sugar • 1½ sticks butter, cut into small chunks
• 2 cups heavy cream • 1 cup milk • 10 eggs • ¼ cup cornmeal • 1½ cups shredded cheese (we used Kenny’s Aged White Cheddar) • ½ tablespoon black pepper • ½ tablespoon garlic • 1 teaspoon salt
Mix in small bowl: • 1 large egg yolk • 3 tablespoons ice water In processor, pulse dry ingredients until mixed. Add butter, pulse to course crumb. Add egg yolk and ice water mix. Pulse until crust holds together –– not too wet or sticky. If too dry, add more ice water, one tablespoon at a time. Form into a flat disk, wrap in plastic and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. The quiche filling is prepared in three different parts.
BREAD MIXTURE: • 3 cups cubed rustic bread • Butter or olive oil for sautéing bread • Salt and pepper to taste Heat butter or olive oil in a saute pan, then toss in the rustic bread and salt and pepper to taste. Sauté until edges are crisp; set aside.
VEGETABLE MIXTURE: • 1 large yellow onion, sliced into half-inch rings • 1 bundle of asparagus, chopped • 1 stalk of green onions, chopped • 3 tablespoons of fresh parsley, chopped Sauté onion in olive oil until translucent; remove from heat. Add asparagus, green onions and fresh parsley to the pan.
FOR TOPPING: • ½ cup parmesan shreds Blend all of the remaining ingredients except the parmesan in a food processor.
ASSEMBLY:
PHOTOS BY SARAH JANE SANDERS
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Use a 10by-3-inch spring-form pan, the bottom lined with parchment paper. • Roll out dough and carefully transfer into the pan, pressing into bottom and up the sides. Press together any holes/cracks. • Place onion and vegetable mixture in the pan, top with bread cubes. • Re-stir the egg mixture and pour over vegetable mix, up to ½ inch to the top of the pastry crust. • Cover with foil, bake for 90 minutes or until quiche is set and puffy, with a little jiggle. Remove foil during the last 15 minutes. When quiche is about 10 minutes from being done, top with a half cup parmesan shreds. Let sit for 30 minutes to cool. Serve alongside a lovely green salad. cc

Spring:
A Season of Change BY HARRIETT ROSE
I
love to see springtime in Kentucky. It is our most beautiful season, with blooming trees and flowers appearing seemingly overnight. At that point, we tend to think it is here to stay –– we rejoice and start poring over seed catalogues, planning but not planting yet. Spring always has a couple of surprises for us, and they have nothing to do with global warming; it always happens that we have a couple of leftover cold spells, possibly even snows, after the first signs of spring. You’ll need sweaters and jackets off and on until June, and sometimes later. Then there’s Derby and the Preakness, the Belmont and maybe a T riple Crown winner. This is a primary election year, so we are not permitted to skip the extravagance of commercials about the frequently overblown qualities of the people who want our votes. We learn by loud ads about how great the candidates are and how dreadful their opponents would be, if we should be so misled as to vote them into of fice. I would like to think that there are of f-years with no elections, but they clutter up the listening space so badly that I always find them ubiquitous –– always here spring and fall. V ery good for purveyors of radio and TV time, so assures me my nephew who runs TV channels –– he bought a house in Florida with his cut of the profits from last presidential election. I’m hating them this year already, and these are only primaries! On the other hand –– and there’s always another hand –– the flowers in the cemetery have never been lovelier . They are to me a memorial to Dick Allison, our long-time superintendent of the cemetery. Though he is longgone, the work of his hands survive. This year the changes carry a personal sting for me. My favorite rabbi of the nine I have known at the temple is going to another pulpit. I found Rabbi Kline the smartest of a smart lot, a splendid teacher and inspirer and well-informed on many subjects I studied with him. In fact, the only other rabbi who moved me to identify with him as much as Kline has was the rabbi who confirmed me at age 14, the rabbi of my teenage impressionable years. I thought him without fault of any kind, and I haven’t been that naïve since he left. Finally, my brother and sister-in-law who have lived in Louisville for a long time, have arrived at that stage of health that requires they live close to their children. They are both 10 years younger than I am, and convincing my brother of the truth of that situation was difficult. Their daughter, Cathy, lives in Florida, and their son is in upstate New York (where the snow is). Jay and Jo Anne will be departing Kentucky for Florida early in June. It isn’t that we saw each other so often (a few times a year), and it isn’t that this isn’t the best for them –– in fact, I helped persuade them that Cathy was correct in suggesting that they ought to go. It isn’t that most of their friends are no longer able to take the place of children, or that I am not able to play the big sister role any more. Their leaving seems like a dissolution of our family. My parents are dead, my sister is dead, my brother is moving, all my relatives who were older than I am are dead, and I am holding up the family that used to live at 432 Hollywood Drive and 315 Queensway Drive. Isn’t emotion ridiculous? As if planes didn’t fly, and telephones didn’t exist, and we hadn’t communicated by email for year. cc
