Distinct Districts:
Short Street
With nearly 20 restaurants in a three-block radius, Short Street has evolved into a thriving dining district – and the epicenter of downtown – over the past five years. On the following pages, we take a look at some of the businesses that define the district. BY MELISSA MCCAUGHAN PHOTOS BY SARAH JANE SANDERS
With its elaborate interior and extensive world-inspired menu, the Dubai-based restaurant and cafè Shakespeare & Co. opened its first Lexington location, on the corner of Short and Broadway, in 2012.

very Thursday from April to October, as the music winds down at Fifth Third Bank Pavilion, Central Bank Thursday Night Live crowd floods the Short Street corridor, venturing out to the nearly 20 restaurants within a three-block radius. This winter, after a day at the ice rink or the Christmas parade, bundled couples and families can find comfort in Parlay Social’s grilled cheese, Dudley on Short’s Pasta Dudley, Shakespeare and Co.’s English breakfast or any number of warm, culinary delights within walking distance. In the past four years, since the World Equestrian Games, Short Street has blossomed into a premiere dining destination in the heart of downtown Lexington. Next to the iconic former Fayette County Courthouse, Cheapside Park — with its notorious history as a slave-auction block — became the site for the multi-use Fifth Third Bank Pavilion in 2010. Laura Farnsworth, events manager for the Downtown Lexington Corporation, says the pavilion has served as a catalyst, with several new businesses moving into the area following its construction. “It’s come a long way in the past four years,” said Farnsworth. Thursday Night Live is the city’s most popular event, with attendance growing from 1,000 to 4,000 people per week. It has become more family friendly and people now stay downtown to socialize. Farnsworth attributes the success to the location of Short Street: “It’s in the middle of other pockets. You can go on foot to many other venues. It’s very connected to other parts of downtown.”
Its central location, historic buildings with modern touches, and the multi-use Fifth Third Pavilion — home to the Saturday morning Lexington Farmers’ Market and popular events such as Thursday Night Live — all contribute to the hustle and bustle of downtown's Short Street.

Debbie Long, owner of Dudley’s on Short, agrees that the central location makes Short Street attractive to new businesses. When she moved her restaurant out of its namesake Dudley Square in 2010 – after 28 years at that location – she was drawn to what she saw happening on Short Street. “There was a lot of energy down here on Friday and Saturday nights,” she said. “We needed a location close to the hotels, Rupp Arena, the Lexington Opera House.” The move has proved incredibly successful for the business, which still does 75 percent of its business in reservations, but walk-ins are common. Restaurants are not the only businesses to flourish in the district. Bill Alverson, president of Traditional Bank, has seen the bank, with its strong community ties, rise from a small space in a former county attorney’s office to a thriving success.
The district can be a destination for gatherings both casual and formal. Above and top right: Fine dining restaurant Dudley's, a longtime staple to the Lexington dining scene, moved to Short Street in 2010, to great success. The Lexington Opera House, right, is listed on the National Register for Historic Places.

“We are now fifth in market shares out of 26 banks in Lexington,” Alverson said. “When we opened, we were in last place.” He shared that having a location in heartbeat of the downtown community was a priority. Traditional Bank supports many downtown ventures, including sponsoring the ice rink and holding season tickets at the Lexington Opera House.
“Folks want to be downtown. It’s a happening venue down here,” said Alverson.
row, proved to be the perfect combination for his vision of a place for professionals to eat, drink and be entertained.
Short Street business owner Bob Estes couldn’t agree more. In 2011, Estes bought abandoned former law offices and converted them into the Prohibition-themed bar and restaurant Parlay Social. The historic building, set in the center of a now-bustling downtown
“The façade of the building was completed in 1889 – it has beautiful artisan work,” Estes said. “Stonemasons back in those days are a lost art now.” In 2013, Estes bought Shorty’s, a deli and market a few doors down from
Parlay that was set to close its doors for good. He has since improved the interior of the former bank building, added a tap room and reopened the market, which has always been a weekly convenience for him as a Short Street business owner and resident. “It’s one of the few groceries in the state where you can have a beer while shopping,” he said.

An eight-ton bank vault in the back – which has been used by four banks over the course of time – is now used as a freezer; recently, when excavating the basement of Parlay for a future speakeasy bar, Estes found artifacts from an old barber shop that used to be there. These remnants from the past add to the charm of the buildings, and a reminder of the district’s storied past. “Short Street has always been a street of commerce,” said Estes, citing old photographs showing historic Model T’s and delivery trucks along the street. Today, the district continues to thrive, blending history with modernity. Between Limestone and Broadway sits Cheapside Bar and Grill with its lively patio and live music stage; the modern elegance of Table 310 and Dudley’s on Short; the upscalecasual gastropub Village Idiot (located in the building that served as Lexington’s first post office, formerly the fine-dining restaurant Metropol); The Clock Shop with its unique exterior and magical inside; a feeling of time travel courtesy of Parlay Social and Shakespeare and Co.; and the sight of modern art in the two new PRHBTN murals along the street. “We’ve experienced a renaissance on Short Street in the past four years,” Estes said. “You can take a chance downtown again, experience urban settings and urban lifestyles.” ss

Andrea and James Baker cook at home together almost daily; like the other chef families in this story, they finish each other's dishes – and sentences.
A
s the winter holidays begin, a reallocation of attention takes place in that (pumpkin) pie chart in our Bluegrass brains – you know, the circle of wedges showing how much time we spend thinking about this and that (mostly, of course, that). In November and December the "eating" wedge grows larger as we dedicate increased thought space to finding, cooking, enjoying and, even, avoiding food.
A look inside the family kitchens of several professional chefs
We wondered what happens with food professionals. Chefs typically cook all day on holidays, and squeeze important family meals in when they can. Is cooking still fun? Can they advise us mere mortals in the kitchen about how to flourish under Big Meal pressure? We talked with three chef families in their home kitchens about these and other cooking questions – read on for the skinny.

Jessica Van Houten & LeTonia Jones Jessica Van Houten and LeTonia Jones have been together for five years and married two years ago. Their time together in their home kitchen reflects the union of Jones’ lifelong interest in cooking and Jessica’s professional chef training at Le Cordon Bleu in Chicago. Van Houten is executive chef at the Hilton Lexington Downtown, the first woman to fill that role. Jones, who began cooking at age 9, is an anti-domestic violence advocate.
James & Andrea Baker James and Andrea Baker met as teenagers in 1989 and have been together ever since. In 2010, the couple founded Mtani Catering, which specializes in Southern fusion comfort food, richly flavored and tuned toward health. James Baker graduated from Sullivan University’s Culinary program and Andrea Baker teaches family and consumer science at Edythe J. Hayes Middle School. Mtani provides meals for Urban County Government’s Family Care Center and some specialized programs at Fayette County Public Schools. The couple has two sons.
Latrice Webster & Garren Capers Latrice Webster and Garren Capers met while both worked at Waffle House; they have been a couple for three years. Between them, they have four children. Webster recently launched Wilson’s Family Catering, which debuted at Crave Lexington 2014 with a menu of Southern food that features an occasional touch of South Carolina Low Country. Webster continues cooking at Waffle House/ Hamburg. Capers now cooks at the new Cookout on South Broadway.

All three chef families delight in cooking at home. What’s the best part? For professional chefs, cooking at home offers a time to connect and relax. The more highly trained person in each of these couples offers coaching and teaching that the lesstrained cook values. Culinary school grad James Baker enjoys bonding time with his wife when they cook together; Andrea Baker says she likes learning new cooking techniques from her husband, which she often shares with her middle school students. “He’s more up to date on food and where food comes from, like couscous or quinoa,” she said. “The students ask ‘What is quinoa? Or rhubarb?’ I’m supposed to know everything!” “I learn from him,” she added. “It’s my time to ask questions.” For Van Houten and Jones, cooking together at home is a time to “come together and talk and bond, because our lives are very busy.” “I love the way Jessica teaches,” said Jones, who thinks of herself as a ‘home cook.’ “She actually cringed at the way I was holding the knife. I was holding it up in my hand and cutting down, down toward my hand. She’s a very, very gentle teacher.” Cooking and exercise combine in the Webster-Capers kitchen. Webster said, “When we’re cooking together, it’s more family. Usually when we’re cooking we have the kids here – we have music on. We get to dance around.”
Chef families make their favorite meals at home. Above, Letonia Jones and Jessica Van Houten prepare “Our Sandwich,” a tricked-out turkey delight. Below, the Bakers assemble James’ signature steak fajitas.
Describe one dish that holds meaning for your household and family. We found that these chefs tend to go for highly flavored, non-fussy, warm, comforting foods when they eat at home – no elaborate all-day meals here! James and Andrea Baker prefer grilling in general. "Charcoal and wood – never gas," he clarified. "Don't say that cuss word." Ironically, Jones named a favorite dish she never had growing up in western Kentucky: “Jessica's savory grits made with white cheddar.” Van Houten, in turn, says her favorite food, pizza casserole – “ground beef, shells, marinara, green peppers, onions, mozzarella” – comes from one of Jones’s childhood recipes. Webster says one savory dish pleases everyone in their household: “Garlic chicken and herbs.” Webster's cinnamon-topped homemade cake doughnuts are Capers’ personal favorite, even though he does not typically like sweets.

Webster and Capers collaborate on family favorite southern style tacos, pictured below.
How do chef families divide up cooking tasks when they cook at home? In two of these chef families, one person – not necessarily the more highly trained chef – naturally prefers order and handles cleanup. These families talk easily about mise en place, a French term describing how a professional chef preps and arranges ingredients before cooking begins.

Webster says she tends to “get things going,” while her partner Capers does most of the chopping. “I’ll show him how to start, and he’ll go with it,” she said. “Like I’ll say, ‘Shred that cabbage small so it will cook fast, and he’ll do it.’” “She does tell me what to do – I’m not even going to lie,” Capers said. “She’s in charge of the food part, and I’m in charge of the business.” James Baker says, “I usually do all of the chopping, while Andrea usually pre-measures and cleans as we go. This is because she hates cutting and I hate cleaning.”
NOW SERVING WINE, SPIRITS & BEER
In the Van Houten-Jones household, Van Houten, the trained chef, takes responsibility for kitchen orderliness. “I usually do all the mise en place. I do the cutting and getting stuff out. I’m very organized and my lovely wife is more free-spirited.”

What advice can you give home cooks about cooking holiday or celebration meals? Chefs advise home cooks to ease up and enjoy cooking holiday or celebration meals – which should be replete with homey comfort foods. Mac and cheese shows up in all three of these chef families’ holiday traditions. James Baker says his professional chef training does not stand for much in his wife’s family’s Thanksgiving kitchen. “They won’t let me cook for the holidays. Women do all the cooking,” he said. Andrea Baker agreed. “Aunt So-and-So has her mac and cheese. Don’t even think about making mac and cheese,” she said. “Everybody has their thing.” Houten advises home chefs to cook from the heart and cook what they like.
All the chef families advise new cooks to focus on family and comfort – not fuss – when preparing holiday meals.
“Don’t be afraid of going to the Internet,” she said. “I like to keep it simple." Capers chose the perspective of the eater and said, “Let them cook. Use their strengths. If they are good at mac and cheese, let them cook the mac and cheese.” He stresses the importance of making sure new cooks don’t overwhelm themselves. “It’s a family event – ask someone who’s good at it to cook the turkey,” he said. “Or they can show you how.” Webster says, “Never second-guess what you’re cooking. Taste as you go.” Jones underscores the ways holiday foods carry deep meaning within families: “Last year we stayed here instead of going to be with my family for Thanksgiving – it was good and it was beautiful. I realized we were not having Mom’s dressing – we were having apple almond dressing. We were not with our parents’ family. We were starting a new family.”

On Our Table
Sausage Sage and Pecan Stuffing This recipe, borrowed from Stella Parks’ father dearest, transforms a delectable sage cornbread – which can stand on its own – into a luscious holiday stuffing (and one that Parks has affectionately referred to as “the only part of Thanksgiving that really matters.”)
28 Southsider Magazine November 2014
Sausage Sage and Pecan Stuffing
cooking as the stuffing bakes. Transfer the browned sausage to the bowl of bread, but leave the drippings in the skillet.
(Yields two 9” by 13” dishes) • 12 ounces pecans (2 1/2 cups pecan pieces or 3 cups pecan halves) • 1 pound country style white bread (gluten free breads work fine), preferably stale • 1 batch sage cornbread, preferably stale • 2 pounds yellow onions (from 4 unpeeled, medium-sized onions) • 1 pound celery, washed (from 6 medium stalks) • 1 pound ground sausage (my dad always buys a mild, sage sausage) • 12 ounces (3 sticks) unsalted butter • 1/4 ounce fresh sage (about 1/4 cup loosely packed leaves) sage • 6 large eggs • 12 ounces (1 can) evaporated milk • 8 ounces (1 cup) chicken or turkey stock, preferably homemade • 1 tablespoon freshly ground pepper, or to taste • 1 tablespoon kosher salt This makes a ton of stuffing, so have an oversized mixing bowl on hand; I mix mine in a large stockpot.
RECIPE BY STELLA PARKS | PHOTOS BY SARAH JANE SANDERS READ MORE GREAT RECIPES FROM STELLA AT WWW.BRAVETART.COM.
Sage Cornbread (Yields one 10” wheel) • 5 1/2 ounces yellow cornmeal • 4 1/2 ounces all-purpose flour • 1 tablespoon baking powder • 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt • 1/4 ounce fresh sage leaves • 3 ounces unsalted butter, melted • 2 1/2 ounces honey • 8 1/2 ounces buttermilk • 1 egg • 2 egg yolks • 1 tablespoon safflower or coconut oil (or lard, if you’ve got it) to brush the pan • 1 tablespoon stone ground grits (optional) Place a 10-inch cast iron skillet into a cold oven and preheat to 400 degrees about 30 minutes in advance. This guarantees the skillet is blazing hot, making for a crispy, crackling crust. Grind the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt and sage in the bowl of a food processor until the sage has nearly disappeared. This extracts maximum flavor, but feel free to mince the sage instead. Whisk the melted butter, honey, buttermilk,
egg and yolks in a medium bowl until well combined, then add the dry ingredients and mix until smooth. Pull the hot skillet from the oven, and use a pastry brush to generously coat the bottom and sides with oil or lard. If you like, sprinkle a tablespoon of grits over the bottom for an extra layer of crunch.
Toss the onions and celery into the pan with the drippings (look, it’s Thanksgiving, OK?) and place over medium-low heat. Stir with a wooden spoon to scrape up any brown bits of sausage left on the bottom of the pan. Sauté until the onions are translucent, but not brown; about 10 minutes. Add the vegetables to the bread, return the skillet to the stove, reduce the heat to low, and melt the butter. Meanwhile, chop the sage as finely as you can, then add to the melted butter. Increase the heat to medium and cook, stirring often if not constantly, until the butter starts to bubble and foam. For an extra toasty flavor, continue cooking until the butter begins to brown. Pour the foamy sage butter over the bread, and note that it will stretch into a million servings so you don’t have to feel guilty. In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, evaporated milk, chicken or turkey stock, salt and pepper. When well combined, pour over the bread and fold with a flexible spatula until evenly coated.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and lightly toast the pecans, about eight minutes, then transfer to the bowl. Tear the bread into one-inch chunks and break the cornbread into eight big chunks pieces (they’ll crumble into smaller bits later on). Proceed to the next step, or cover with plastic until you’re ready to proceed; up to 24 hours. The breads actually benefit from a day of staling, especially if they were fresh to begin with.
Divide the stuffing between two 9-by-13 inch glass or ceramic dishes. Don’t pack the stuffing down or smooth the top; you want maximum surface area, with lots of jagged peaks that’ll brown into wonderfully crusty bits.
Cut the onions in half through the root end, peel, and chop into half-inch chunks. Next, trim the ends off each celery stalk and slice into quarter-inch pieces. Set the vegetables aside for now.
Set one or both dishes of stuffing out at room temperature while the oven preheats to 375 degrees (I like to bake one off for Thanksgiving, and save the other to bake off fresh to enjoy with leftovers.)
Put the sausage into a 12-inch skillet over medium heat, break into pieces with a fork, and cook until the sausage crumbles have browned on both sides. The larger chunks may not be cooked through, but will finish
Bake, uncovered, until the stuffing is golden browned on top, about 30 minutes. Lift up a chunk of bread with a fork; it should look moist, but not gooey or wet inside. Take to the table and enjoy piping hot. ss
Whatever the case, cover the stuffing with plastic wrap and refrigerate up to a week. Alternately, cover with foil, freeze up to six months, and thaw overnight in the fridge before baking.
Scrape the batter into the pan and bake until the cornbread is golden and firm to the touch, about 25 minutes. To use the cornbread for stuffing, bake an additional 10 minutes to help dry it out. Run a dull knife around the edge of the skillet to loosen, then invert the hot cornbread onto a cutting board or platter. Enjoy with copious amounts of butter and molasses. Store in an airtight container two or three days at room temperature; to rewarm, wrap each slice in a damp paper towel and microwave 20 seconds. You can also freeze cornbread in a zip-top bag up to six months, giving it a dry and crumbly texture perfect for Thanksgiving stuffing.

s I write this from the Writers Reference Room in the Carnegie Center for Literacy and Learning (an organization I like to call “the Mothership”), I am surrounded by Kentucky authors. Shelf after shelf is crammed with narratives and poetry that reflect the land and culture here.
My favorite question to ask Kentucky writers is, “What makes a Kentucky writer so, y’know – Kentucky?” During a recent conversation, I asked this question of James Goode, author, retired professor and archivist. He laughed and replied promptly, “It’s the difference between soup beans with no seasoning in ’em, and soup beans with pork fat in ’em.” We mused further over the blend of literary content, tone and culture so unique to our state, and how the writing roots itself in the earth and in the people who have a legacy of pulling themselves up by their bootstraps. Goode is convinced, however, that it is a sense of “ruralness,” or remoteness, that Kentucky writers most share. And although he couldn’t explain entirely what was so “Kentucky” about Kentucky writing, Goode was confident he could always tell a Kentucky author when he read one. This past year alone has been an excellent one for Kentucky authors. Below, I have created a list of 10 titles that came out this year that you shouldn’t let pass by in 2014.
Season Sponsor
Nov. 21 5-8PM!
As the literary arts liaison for the Carnegie Center, Bianca Spriggs regularly features Kentucky authors or authors with a strong Kentucky connection on “The Red Door Writers Blog” – updated weekly at www.carnegiecenterlex.org/red-door-writers-blog. She is always on the lookout for Kentucky authors who have flown under her radar – if you are a Kentucky author with a title published within the past year (or forthcoming title), feel free to send your information to her at bianca@carnegiecenterlex.org
Gazelle in the House By Lisa Williams (Danville) New Issues, 2014 Like its title, this collection of poems deals with the tension created when ordinary, familiar spaces are layered among those that contain extraordinary and unexpected conditions. Williams’ voice is at once confident while coming off as intimate and deceptively demure. Her poised lines captivate, but her odes to domestic and natural realms are multifaceted, both contemplating and complicating preconceived notions of place.
Lay it on my Heart By Angela Pneuman (California by way of Wilmore) Mariner Books, 2014
Irredeemable
Girl on a Wire
By Jason Sizemore (Lexington) Seventh Star Press, 2014
By Gwenda Bond (Lexington) Skyscape, 2014
This collection features 18 dark, speculative short stories from the unbridled mind of Jason Sizemore. Intertwining traces of horror, dark fantasy, sci-fi, Southern gothic and other paranormal elements, Sizemore introduces readers to everyday characters faced with astonishing scenarios involving whatever they fear that goes bump in the night.
Breakfast Served Any Time By Sarah Combs (Lexington) Candlewick, 2014
Gwenda Bond’s latest deathdefying young adult novel revolves around the story of a 16-year-old girl, Jules Maroni, who is a “daredevil high-wire walker” from a legendary circus family fallen on hard times. Circumstances lead the Maroni family to the Cirque American, a show determined to restore the former glamour and glory of circuses. This novel is packed with multigenerational family rivalries, a dash of unlucky magic and superstition, and of course, plenty of scandal and mystery beneath the big-top.
Pendulum By Eric Scott Sutherland (Lexington) Accents Publishing, 2014
Madam Belle: Sex, Money, and Influence in a Southern Brothel By Maryjean Wall (Lexington) University of Kentucky Press, 2014 From the author of “How Kentucky Became Southern: A Tale of Outlaws, Horse Thieves, Gamblers, and Breeders,” comes a nonfiction work connecting infamous and controversial Lexington-based madam Belle Brezing to the rise of the horse industry in the late 1890s to the early 1900s. Wall’s new book also explores the connection to the fictional character, Belle Watling, in “Gone with the Wind.”
Rain Shadow By Richard Taylor (Frankfort) Broadstone Books, 2014 This former Kentucky poet laureate is still going strong with this, his ninth collection, which he describes as poems of nature, relationships and passing. The book’s title derives from the meteorological phenomenon of warm air from the ocean hitting coastal mountain ranges, producing lush flora on one side and desert on the other, and serves as a site of exploration. Taylor is unequivocally a master poet whose collection creates a universal emotional trajectory steeped in personal experience.
