Boy, do we have a treat for you this week: the 2015 Voice-Tribune Restaurant Guide. Louisville has turned into a real foodie town here lately, and it has expanded its horizons with innovating and exciting restaurants opening seemingly every week. Although we couldn’t cover everyone, we did our best to create a comprehensive list, and we’ve broken it down into fun categories. We know it’s a long list (50 restaurants long, in fact), but there is a lot of tasty food to talk about. So take a look at this week’s feature and check out these fabulous local restaurants! And if you prefer to cook your food – namely, your fish – at home, we have something for you too! We caught up with Doug and Lori Elder, the owners of Chenoweth Square’s Highland Fish Market. We spoke with this incredible couple about their dream to own their own business and what they’re doing for the community. Meanwhile, 17-year-old Michael Buchanan is serving up something sweet. He’s the entrepreneur behind Big Mike’s Shaved Ice, the little yellow hut you see on the corner of Bardstown Road and Midland Avenue in the parking lot of Diary Mart. Mike started his business as a fun summer project. Little did he know, it would boom into an actual destination spot for a sweet summer treat. This young man has a dream about being a successful businessman, and he’s already well on his way! Other young dreamers are ballerinas. We have spotlighted a dancer outfit in fashion this week… No, we haven’t gone crazy. We want to show you just how much goes into a dancer’s outfit. It gets very expensive, but luckily enough, this town has an event called Raise The Barre. Taking place September 12, the event works to help subsidize dancers’ incomes so they may spend more time devoted to their craft as opposed to working part-time jobs. Keep checking back with us to find out more about this incredible event. In sports, Steve Kaufman analyzes the ever-enticing persona of John Calipari as he continues to stir the pot. Elsewhere, Mike Rutherford makes his predictions for the cardinals’ upcoming season and John Asher fills us in on what’s going on up in Saratoga. And Kent Taylor sits down with athletes in competition for the position of UofL quarterback. Around town, we covered the Leadership Louisville Luncheon. This event had a fabulous turn out with mayors from both Nashville and Louisville making guest appearances. Leadership is an important quality, and we are lucky to have a program to further instill leadership skills within Louisville professionals. The Louisville BIG Wish Gala was held August 14 and was an absolutely inspiring event. It is always sweet hearing Make-aWish stories and really puts things into perspective for me. The things that organization does make me work harder every day to make a difference in the world. Lastly, I am excited to say that Modern Louisville will have its first issue out by September 1! Please come celebrate with the community – and me – the launch of the city’s first LGBTQ lifestyle magazine. The party will be at Play Dance Bar on September 3 at 7 p.m., and it is sure to be a good time. With purple cocktails and amazing entertainment, I promise you won’t want to miss this. Cheers,

louisville staples Over the last five years or so, Louisville has developed a significant reputation as a haven for foodies. But it wasn’t always this way. These five restaurants set the standard of Louisville eateries and served as pioneers for Louisville’s now unparalleled food scene. Buck’s

425 W. Ormsby Ave., Louisville, 40203 502.637.5284 • buckslou.com The elegant and charming decor of Bucks – complete with white flowers and linens – is only matched in quality by the food. The bourbon chicken saltimbocca is a delightful fusion of Italian and Kentucky flavors. Meanwhile, the filet mignon is nearly unmatched in regards to both flavor and presentation.

Jack Fry’s

1007 Bardstown Road, Louisville, 40204 502.452.9244 • jackfrys.com In the midst of the bustling and trendy Highlands, Jack Fry’s remains a sophisticated flagship, perfect for those looking for an upscale meal in a sea of bars and more casual options. Tucked away near the corner of Bardstown and Highland, Jack Fry’s is dim and romantic with service that is nearly as legendary as the menu. The pork chop is always a crowd-pleas-

er as is the sweet tea-brined heirloom chicken, served with ricotta gnocchi, pesto cream and broccolini.

RIVUE

140 N. Fourth St., Louisville, 40202 502.568.4239 • rivue.com The view provided by RIVUE, located atop The Galt House, is literally unbeatable. The restaurant slowly rotates, providing diners

Havana Rumba

4115 Oechsli Ave., Louisville, 40207 12003 Shelbyville Road #108, Louisville, 40243

2210 Bardstown Road, Louisville, 40205 502.897.1959 (St. Matthews) havanarumbaonline.com This former dark horse started in a little strip mall in St. Matthews in 2004 and now sports three booming locations across Louisville. It boasts stellar Cuban food, the quality of which is only matched by the incredible cocktails and amiable service. There’s no greater Latin pleasure in town than chowing down on some authentic ropa vieja and sipping a refreshing mojito.

Hammerheads

921 Swan St., Louisville, 40204 502.365.1112 • louisvillehammerheads.com Nestled in a basement of a house in Germantown, this oasis of culinary creativity offers excellently prepared meat with flavor that is nearly unmatched in the city. The eatery only has so many tables, and they are always full of smiling and satisfied diners. Look like you know what you’re doing and order the elk burger with a side of truffle fries and a PBR.

boozy brunch Regarded by many as the best and most important meal of the week, brunch is a tradition much acclaimed and loved by the Louisville community. And what would brunch be without a little booze? The following five eateries have nailed the art of matching the perfect egg dish with the perfect cocktail. Harvest

624 E. Market St., Louisville, 40202 502.384.9090 • harvestlouisville.com While it may be open for lunch and dinner throughout the week, Harvest’s Saturday and Sunday brunch is the service of choice for both hungover hipsters and the country club crew. The natural light beautifully illuminates Harvest’s woodwork interior and sets the perfect stage for brunch. Pair your local scrambled egg sandwich (egg, Canadian bacon, St. Jerome cheese and smoked tomato mayo on a pretzel croissant) with a Kentucky Wake-Me-Up – a cocktail created from local coffee, Four Roses bourbon, chocolate bitters and honey.

El Camino

1314 Bardstown Road, Louisville, 40204 502.454.5417 • elfreakingcamino.com A surf-inspired tiki bar, El Camino has a festive and retro vibe throughout. Its menu focuses on more south-of-the-border offerings and contains perhaps the best sandwich in Louisville: the Semita Sandwich. Made up of fried pork, shaved ham, guacamole, salsa verde, habañero aioli and

jalapeño slaw, the entree pairs delightfully with a pineapple juice mimosa, made with fresh-squeezed juice.

Wild Eggs

121 S. Floyd St., Louisville, 40202 Three other area locations 502.690.5925 • wildeggs.com The modern classic Louisville breakfast spot, Wild Eggs serves all-American fare with excellent flavor and a true commitment to quality. At any of the four Louisville locations, sample the Bennies Gone Wild consisting of poached eggs, wild mushrooms, grilled tomatoes, tomato hollandaise and a balsamic reduction. Add a fresh skillet cinnamon roll as an appetizer and a Proud Mary as your libation and you’re on your way to hog heaven.

(fresh tortilla chips, salsa verde, queso cotija and over-easy eggs) paired with a Kentucky Mule (Wild Turkey 101 bourbon, ginger syrup and lime) is a combination worth waking up for.

Gralehaus

1001 Baxter Ave., Louisville, 40204 502.454.7075 • gralehaus.com Owned by the same masterminds of Holy Grale, this wonderful counter-service shop sits up a few stairs on Baxter Avenue. It offers a dazzling array of beer and great brunch food throughout the week. The lamb sausage and grits, soft serve ice cream and crepes are all must-trys. And the cold brew on coffee on tap is the perfect afternoon refresher.

The Silver Dollar

1761 Frankfort Ave., Louisville, 40206 502.259.9540 whiskeybythedrink.com With roadhouse tunes resounding on vinyl, a renovated firehouse aesthetic and an excitingly eclectic menu, The Silver Dollar cannot disappoint. The Chilaquiles Verdes

with breathtaking panoramas of the city at sunset. A perfect complement to the view, the menu is outstanding, featuring such dishes as the dry aged rib eye and the Verlasso salmon with avocado mousse, cherry tomato panzanella bread salad and grilled lemon. And don’t miss that candy cart that rolls by once you’ve cleaned your plate!

Break the routine as you and your sweetheart share a flavorful feast under the mood lighting of any of these five restaurants, each of which is sure to provide high-quality drinks and entrees with an ambience to die for. Ward 426

426 Baxter Ave., Louisville, 40204 502.365.2505 • ward426.com A casual yet cultured eatery at the north end of Baxter Avenue, Ward 426 has been romancing diners since it opened late last year. The menu is regionally inspired and seeks to incorporate local ingredients into upscale dishes. The seared duck breast is absolutely phenomenal with spinach and almond puree, artichoke heart, fennel, house-cured bacon, wild Mushrooms, peach and dried fruit topping. And don’t forget to sample one of their seasonal cocktails to complete your experience!

Eiderdown

983 Goss Ave., Louisville, 40217 502.290.2390 • eiderdown-gtown.com Inside this adorable Germantown eatery, you’ll find dim lighting; an excellent wine, beer and cocktail list; a menu that speaks to the name of the neighborhood; and servers who are friendly, conversational and efficient. The dishes, such as

the Sunday Night Sitdown (roast chicken, collard greens and grits), are of superior flavor, and you and your beloved will no doubt have a ball exploring the one-of-a-kind menu.

RYE

900 E. Market St., Louisville, 40206 502.749.6200 • ryeonmarket.com Behind the seductive black facade on the corner of Campbell and Market in NuLu is RYE: an upscale New American eatery that prides itself on serving only the finest of dishes. Such refined and innovative creations as the Berkshire pork loin pair marvelously with the extraordinary cocktail menu. Add this to holding hands over Rye’s thick wooden tables and it doesn’t get much more romantic.

MilkWood

316 W. Main St., Louisville, 40202 502.584.6455 • milkwoodrestaurant.com All you really need to hear is one name: Edward Lee. The celebrity chef has been creating daz-

zling dishes in Louisville since MilkWood opened in 2013. Located in the basement of Actors Theatre, the restaurant is tasteful and modern and bathed in a subtle warm light. Whisper to each other while you chow down on some ramen or fried chicken. Or share the Big Plate for Two (ribs, slaw and pickles). Make sure to try some of the craft cocktails from the bar as well.

Proof on Main

702 W. Main St., Louisville, 40202 502.217.6360 • proofonmain.com Proof and its host hotel, 21C Museum Hotel, make for the perfect Louisville date. Score a cocktail at Proof’s posh bar then browse the awe-inspiring contemporary art display in the lobby of the hotel. Then, return to Proof and have a seat in the restaurant. Go crazy and try new things like the delicious charred octopus or the poached Skuna Bay salmon. The combination of food, drink and art is sure to make for an evening neither of you will forget.

outdoor dining made easy Although summer is nearing a close, dining al fresco can be delightful even into the fall. There are a myriad of places to enjoy the fresh air while you dine around town, but these five offer some of the best patios (or rooftops) in town. Olive Leaf Bistro

130 W. Riverside Dr., Jeffersonville, IN 47130 812.913.1252 • oliveleafbistro.com Situated right on the river in Jeffersonville, Olive Leaf provides a delightfully scenic view from its picturesque veranda. The

A U G U S T 2 0 , 2 0 1 5 • W W W . V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

menu focuses on Mediterranean flavor with tastes reminiscent of southern France, Italy, Spain, north Africa and Greece. The chicken Sorrentino is divine with layers of chicken, eggplant, prosciutto, fresh marinara sauce and mozzarella, served with pasta. That, plus any of their fine wines, makes your refined picnic complete!

8UP Elevated Drinkery & Kitchen

350 W. Chestnut St., Louisville, 40202 502.631.4180 • 8uplouisville.com Louisville’s only rooftop bar and restaurant, 8UP offers amazing cocktails and delicious dishes with a view that is simply unparalleled. Grab a seat in the spacious outdoor lounge and snag a

Garage Bar

700 E. Market St., Louisville, 40202 502.749.7100 • garageonmarket.com This converted service station in NuLu has received national attention for its aesthetic, its booze and most importantly its food. Its pizza oven was imported from Naples, Italy and now bakes Garage’s thin-and-chewy crust pizza to perfection. Enjoy the pizza or the vast selection of ham available from “The Ham Bar” on the faux

hedge benches outside or on one of the picnic tables that sit near the two ping pong tables.

Against the Grain

401 E. Main St., Louisville, 40202 502.515.0174 • atgbrewery.com A beer lover’s paradise, Against the Grain is located inside the same building as Louisville Slugger Field. The patio, however, takes up ample space on the sidewalk and quite possibly may be one of the largest outdoor dining areas in town. Revel in their southern inspired menu with a pulled pork sandwich or a sausage link hoagie. Don’t forget to try one of the brewery’s craft beers, brewed on site.

Molly Malone’s Irish Pub & Restaurant

933 Baxter Ave., Louisville, 40202 3900 Shelbyville Road, Louisville, 40207 502.473.1222 (Highlands) mollymalonesirishpub.com While it may be a hotspot for late night boozing, Molly Malone’s is a becoming a true contender on the Louisville culinary scene. The beautiful and spacious deck at the Highlands location is the perfect spot to enjoy the delicious pesto grilled chicken or the more traditional shepherd’s pie. And since you’re outside, you should probably sample one of the 20 beers on tap!

North End Cafe

1722 Frankfort Ave., Louisville, 40206 2116 Bardstown Road, Louisville, 40205 502.896.8770 (Clifton) • northendcafe.com It doesn’t get much easier than North End.

Come Back Inn

909 Swan St., Louisville, 40204 415 Spring St., Jeffersonville, IN 47130 502.627.1777 (Germantown) • comebackinn.net

There’s nothing like an easy and relaxed Italian place to delight the whole family. Inspired by the restaurants of Chicago’s Little Italy, the Come Back Inn specializes in crowd-pleasing Italian comfort food. Kids will go nuts for the pizza and pasta while mom and dad can dive into a Chicago Italian beef sandwich or a meatball hoagie.

Bluegrass Brewing Company

300 W. Main St., Louisville, 40202 3929 Shelbyville Road, 40207 502.562.0007 (Downtown) • bbcbrew.com Although more widely known for its beer, BBC also has a couple brewpubs in town that offer friendly American fare that pair nicely with its brews and appeal to the whole family. Options at BBC range from delicious sandwiches and burgers to zesty pizzas and bar snacks. Add that to the attentive service and beer selection, and you’ve got a place that scores big with everyone young and old.

Late Night Bites It used to be hard to kill that late night hunger – not anymore. These five bar-and-restaurants offer diners all of their high-quality fare late into the morning hours. From lighter bites to full-on meals, there’s something special at each one for the night owl in all of us. Spring Street Bar & Grill

300 S. Spring St., Louisville, 40206 502.584.6630 • springstreetbarandgrill.com It’s a tragedy that this local gem is often overlooked as it’s almost certainly exactly what late night diners are looking for. The fun, neon-hued atmosphere and energetic and friendly servers are only accented by the menu, which overflows with bar snacks and complete meals. Do yourself a favor and order the turkey burger with a side of tater tots and pair it with a $4 shot of Old Forester.

The Post

1045 Goss Ave., Louisville, 40217 502.635.2020 • thepostlouisville.com While it may be newer to town, The Post already has a loyal following that shows up well into the night. Serving pizza till 2 a.m., this Goss Avenue eatery is always clean, has plenty of seating and boasts a menu that is both accessible and creative: a rare feat. The pizzas are huge and perfect for feeding a group of late-night barhoppers. Try The Riveter, a glorious combination of provolone, meatballs, banana peppers and basil – or The

Army Brat, a pie made up of bratwurst, garlic, jalapeños, sauerkraut, cheddar and brown mustard.

ing back. Just as good at 8 p.m. as at 1 a.m., the menu specializes in bar snacks with plenty of fried options that are simply perfect after a couple Woodfords. The buffalo wings are legendary, and the jalapeño poppers and bombers (wontons with chicken, jalapeños and cheese) will never disappoint.

Ramsi’s Cafe on the World

1293 Bardstown Road, Louisville, 40204 502.451.0700 • ramsiscafe.com After catching a movie at Baxter, Ramsi’s is the perfect place to sit and discuss the show over a delicious meal. The extensive menu takes from different cuisines from around the world and offers plenty of options for diners with alternative diets. The patio is particularly lovely, especially in the late hours when certain bottles of wine are $10 after 10 p.m. The Moroccan lamb chops with bourbon tomato jam are particularly tasty, as is the spicy and savory Jamaican chicken sandwich.

Hilltop Tavern

1800 Frankfort Ave., Louisville, 40206 502.742.2908 hilltoptavernlouisville.blogspot.com Specializing in smoked meat, Hilltop is a particularly fun place to end the night thanks to its collection of games such as pool, Cards Against Humanity and life-sized Jenga. The smoked PBR chicken sandwich is delicious, especially when doused with some barbecue sauce, and the West 6th mac ‘n’ cheese fritters alone are worth making the trip.

stunning Small Plates & Snacks Stunning A staple on the western European food scene, the small plates trend is just now getting to the U.S. Thankfully, five places in town have already mastered the art of offering a variety of different-sized dishes, perfect for sharing and sampling or for combining on your own to make a complete meal. LouVino

1606 Bardstown Road, Louisville, 40205 502.365.1921 • louvino.com This cosmopolitan new eatery may be named for its wine, but the tapas-style menu is just as remarkable. Go with a couple friends and explore the menu by ordering several dishes for the table and creating your own meal. The fried chicken tacos with garlic mashed potatoes and pepper gravy are out of this world, and the delectable Cajun crab cakes are the perfect combination of savory and spicy.

Mojito Tapas

2231 Holiday Manor Center Louisville, 40222 502.425.0949 • mojitotapas.com Inspired by the culinary traditions of Spain and Latin America, Mojito Tapas offers an incredible variety of delightful exotic dishes. The tabla de chimichurri (skirt steak with chimichurri sauce) is delicious, as are the albóndigas (Spanish style meatballs with seasoned ground Angus beef, pork and Spanish chorizo, served in a wine tomato sauce and topped with Man-

chego cheese). And make sure to try the House Swirl Margarita, a frozen margarita with a sangria float.

El Taco Luchador

938 Baxter Ave., Louisville, 40204 502.583.0440 facebook.com/eltacoluchador Though it may not technically be a small plate menu, Taco Luchador’s offerings are perfect for those looking for just a snack and for those looking for a full meal. Order three tacos and call it lunch or just get one for a mid-afternoon snack. The Tinga taco, made up of guajillo braised chicken, queso fresco, crema, pico and guac is just what you need – as is the Al Pastor, a classic Mexican combo of pork, pineapple, cilantro and onions.

Bistro 1860

1765 Mellwood Ave., Louisville, 40206 502.618.1745 • bistro1860.com Located in the beckoning yellow house at the end of Brownsboro Road is Bistro 1860: an

upscale French-American fusion eatery that allows diners to choose their own adventure. The menu offers a myriad of exquisite items – such as the Hudson Valley duck confit strudel served with caramelized onion, candied chile, fresh Capriole goat cheese, shallot sherry cream and leek hay – in three different sizes. Diners thus may either have an entree a piece or mix and match small plates to share.

Dragon King’s Daughter

1126 Bardstown Road, Louisville, 40204 202 E. Elm St., New Albany, IN 47150 502.632.2444 (Highlands) dragonkingsdaughter.com A staple in the Highlands restaurant scene, Dragon King’s Daughter is renowned for its take on Asian-fusion cuisine. Grab a seat outside and enjoy some of the best sushi in town. The kraken attacks roll (red tuna, avocado, hot sauce inside, escolar and unagi outside) is a sure-fire pleaser. So is the fried veggie Gyoza, or potstickers, as a starter. And don’t forget the sake, which is $3/$5 during the daily 3-6 p.m. happy hour!

Hog-Eaters’ Heaven Sometimes, you just need to eat meat. Well-prepared, succulent and savory meat dishes can be exceptionally satisfying, delicious, filling and, ultimately, primal. Each of these five local restaurants are cooking up some unbeatable dishes, perfect for carnivores. Doc Crow’s Southern Smokehouse & Raw Bar

127 W. Main St., Louisville, 40207 502.587.1626 • doccrows.com This southern smokehouse serves up some fine oysters, but the meat is definitely their thing.

A U G U S T 2 0 , 2 0 1 5 • W W W . V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

The mouthwatering selection of brisket, ribs and chicken is enough to get anybody excited. Throw in some green beans and hush puppies and you’ve got a southern feast to envy. Their bourbon list is also exemplary, sure to give your pan seared ribeye a little extra kick.

Feast BBQ

909 E. Market St., Louisville, 40206 116 W. Main St., New Albany, IN 47150 502.749.9900 (NuLu) • feastbbq.com Although it started in New Albany – and is still there – Feast’s second location in NuLu has

Mussel & Burger Bar

9200 Taylorsville Road, Louisville, 40299 502.384.4834 facebook.com/pages/musselburgerbar While it may be a bit removed from the epicenter of local eateries, this Hurstbourne restaurant is one of the best in the city. True to its name, it offers a genuinely spectacular selection of creative mussel dishes and a list so astounding of

burgers that it’s nearly impossible to pick one. The Argentinian is a favorite with provaletta, carmelized onions, Argentinian chorizo, chimichurri sauce and confit tomatoes. The decision will be hard, but it’s impossible to make a wrong one.

Smoketown USA

1153 Logan St., Louisville, 40204 502.409.9180 smoketownusa.com With its unassuming facade, expansive menu and hometown charm, it’s hard to be unhappy at Smoketown USA. The menu caters to those who love meat – especially ribs. From the rib basket to the Flintstone Ribs (Beef Ribs), everything is absolutely delicious. The sandwiches are also incredible; the burgers in particular are outstanding.

F e at u r e

become the go-to weekday lunch spot for the carnivores among us. Its array of chicken, pork and brisket, available as sandwiches tacos or just on their own, provide plenty of options with bonus barbecue sauces to spice up any of the smoked meat. The bourbon slushies (flavors are always changing) should help wash it all down.

Game

2295 Lexington Road, Louisville, 40206 502.618.1712 louisvillehammerheads.com/game Thanks to the popularity of the burger dishes at their original restaurant, Hammerheads co-owners Adam Burress and Chase Mucerino were able to successfully open a second restaurant dedicated only to these exotic burgers. Game is a pleasantly open eatery with covered deck seating in all seasons and a beer list built to complement the burgers. Diners have the option of building their own burger, so the options are boundless. Try the kangaroo burger on a pretzel bun with bone marrow mayo. You won’t be sorry.

Alternative Diet Accommodators Whatever your reason for sticking to a vegan, vegetarian and/or gluten-free diet, Louisville has you covered. All five of these local eateries offer diners top-notch dishes to suit alternative diets and prove that cooking a little differently doesn’t mean sacrificing taste. Roots

1216 Bardstown Road, Louisville, 40204 502.456.6688 • heartandsoy.net The answer to so many vegan prayers, Roots is a semi-upscale eatery that offers plenty of options for vegan and vegetarian eaters. Its motto is “mindful, compassionate cooking,” and the menu reflects just that. You’ll forget all about meat when you sample the summer rolls complete with sautéed vegetables, tofu, veggie ham, mint, Thai basil, crispy cigar and tamarind sauce.

Heart & Soy

1216 Bardstown Road, Louisville, 40204 502.456.6678 • heartandsoy.net Perfect for the college vegetarian on the go, Heart & Soy shares a building – and owner – with Roots. Heart & Soy has a bit more pronounced Asian flair with noodles and rice bowls aplenty. The Korean Rice Bowl in particular never disappoints as it’s loaded with house-made tofu, a fried egg and lots of veggies.

Bank Street Brewhouse

415 Bank St., New Albany, 47150 812.944.2577 newalbanian.com/bank-street-brewhouse In New Albany, the New Albanian Brewing Company’s Bank Street brewery is now home to the Earth Friends Cafe food concept, which has been in existence at various locations since 2011. The menu caters to those who prefer to eat vegan, vegetarian or gluten-free. While sipping NABC beer, guests can enjoy the smoky Bonfire nacho platter with NABC’s Bonfire of the Valkyries, taco “meat,” spicy black bean corn mix, chipotle salsa, smoky jalapeño dressing, vegan cheese, tomato, onion and vegan sour cream.

Zen Garden

2240 Frankfort Ave., Louisville, 40206 502.895.9114 • zengardenasian.com By now, Zen Garden is a fixture on Frankfort Avenue. It pioneered Louisville’s vegetarian food scene and remains the quality standard. The atmosphere is nothing too pretentious

with plenty of seating and an informal vibe. The menu is grounded in vegetarian Chinese and Asian fare with such delectable dishes as the Singapore noodles – rice noodles with finely shredded tofu, cabbage, celery, bean sprouts, snow peas and carrots all stir fried with a curry spice.

Simply Thai

323 Wallace Ave., Louisville, 40207 12003 Shelbyville Road, Louisville, 40243 502.899.9670 (St. Matthews) simplythaiky.com A favorite for both vegans and omnivores alike, Simply Thai is a bustling Asian eatery with locations in St. Matthews and Middletown. The restaurant offers a multitude of noodle and curry dishes with meat often being optional as opposed to standard. The Thai eggplant is a hit with Thai basil and garlic making for a dish that is both filling and marvelously unique.

Upcoming Adventures photo courtesy of royal’s hot chicken

Louisville’s food reputation is only growing, and for that reason, we can expect some spectacular places to open their doors soon. Read through these five exciting concepts that are on the brink of taking the Louisville food scene by storm..

Joella’s Hot Chicken Opening ASAP

3400 Frankfort Ave., Louisville, 40207 facebook.com/joellashotchicken In Nashville, hot chicken dishes are as common as the hot brown is here. Joella’s is looking to bring hot chicken here as well. The eatery plans to “feature all natural fried chicken brined, hand-dipped in our secret spices and herbs.” The chicken will be available in three different degrees of heat, so it’ll be perfect for those who can handle the heat as well as those who like it a little milder.

Artesano Vino, Tapas y Más Opening Oct. 2015 1315 Herr Lane, Louisville, 40222 502.384.4834 facebook.com/pages/artesano-vino-tapas-y-mas

The Martinez family knows how to run a restaurant; they’re the folks who brought us Mussel & Burger Bar, El Taco Luchador, Guaca Mole and Cena. Thus we can all anticipate with confidence their next effort: Artesano. Opening in Westport Village this October, the eatery will be a “causal and authentic Spanish tapas restaurant with fresh and local ingredients, friendly service.”

Royal’s Hot Chicken Opening Fall 2015

736 E. Market St., Louisville, 40202 royalschicken.com Fans of Ryan Rogers’ glorious barbecue eatery, Feast BBQ, rejoice as the restaurateur will soon open Royal’s Hot Chicken in the space formerly occupied by Taco Punk in NuLu. Royal’s twitter

is already tempting us with something called a hot apple pie en carroza. Sounds good!

Doc’s Cantina Opening End of 2015

1201 River Road, Louisville, 40206 502.587.1626 (Doc Crow’s) • doccrows.com Who wasn’t disappointed when Tumbleweed on the river closed last year? Sipping a margarita on the outdoor deck overlooking the Ohio was certainly a pleasure. Soon, that pleasure will be possible again. Falls City Hospitality Group (owners of Doc Crow’s) will open a south-ofthe-border concept called Doc’s Cantina in the former Tumbleweed space. The company plans to open up the restaurant and ensure everyone has a view of the water while enjoying the menu’s semi-upscale Tex-Mex.

EMILY HAGEDORN

So to help you hit up some of the most notable from the past several months, we’ve compiled a list you can use from breakfast to after-dinner drinks – complete with Yelp review excerpts and suggestions on what to order. Make a day of exploring the Ville’s freshest offerings! BREAKFAST: CLIFTON DONUT SHOP, 2317 BROWNSBORO AVE.

fasts, Batman! If you are wanting to try something new and exciting for breakfast, Con Huevos is for you! ...

ne of the best things about the Louisville food scene is that it’s constantly reinventing cuisine. Chalk it up to part bravery, part arrogance and part good ol’ Possibility City – we are eager to give it a shot if it means something fun and exciting on our plates and in our mouths.

Yelp Louisville

EMILY HAGEDORN

It’s not just a craft cocktail; it’s a cocktail made with house-made bitters, juice and syrups, for example. It’s not just meatloaf; it’s a meatloaf cupcake with mashed potato icing and bacon sprinkles. Some very exciting trends are popping up around the Derby City. As the Yelp Louisville senior community manager, I spend many, many hours reading the plethora of local Yelp reviews that are written each day. It’s my job, but it’s also my passion.

MOONSHINE

FUTURE TRENDS

But speaking of drinking alcohol, new distilleries have hopped on the moonshine bandwagon. Eager to have something to show the public while the rest of its alcohol ages and becomes lovely, lovely bourbon, the distilleries are taking moonshine out of the woods and making it a key ingredient in craft cocktails.

Like ethnic brunch, there are other trends that I hope take off in Louisville. No matter how far we’ve come, there is always more to explore with food. Some of the future trends that I’d like to see include local-focused butchers (can’t wait for the Red Hog butcher shop to open!), a local-focused cheese shop/maker and a great Jewish deli.

Kentucky Peerless Distilling recently released its Lucky Moonshine. Derby City Spirits is working on its Crescent Hill Moonshine. And Rabbit Hole Distilling, which is opening a distillery in NuLu, has come out with its Kentucky Moonshine line. This stuff is actually good. It doesn’t taste like paint thinner running down your g ullet like some of the novelty moonshine I’ve tasted.

DESSERT NICHES

So I submit to you, the food and drink trends that I see taking shape and promising thrilling eats in the future.

It’s hard to go wrong with dessert, which makes this area of cuisine so great. And more than anything, local food-preneurs are diving into dessert niches.

DINNER AS EVENT

Instead of just opening a snow cone business, SnoWhat and Boudreaux’s have delved into New Orleans-style snowballs, which are made with smooth, fluffy shaved ice instead of crushed ice.

Anyone who is culinary-inclined will tell you that for a meal to be great it needs to be an experience. And several local restaurateurs are making their meals not just memorable but full-fledged, prix fixe, intimate, chef-driven events. I’m thinking of Dustin Staggers, Ethan Ray and Eric Morris’ Ten Tables, a pop-up dinner club that regularly creates a special dining experience for 10 tables of eager diners a time. There is also LocalsOnly Louisville, in which Chefs Jeff Harman and Lawrence Weeks take over a restaurant for a night, creating a one-of-a-kind meal. And at least one restaurant, At the Italian Table, which just opened on Frankfort Avenue, is making it a main part of its business plan. This small spot holds only 10 people at a time for a dinner, which is reservation only and curated by Chef Gina Stipo. NON-ALCOHOLIC DRINKS Louisville is particularly known for its bourbon, but I’m happy to see several non-alcoholic drinks popping up over the last year or so. These include Banyan Tree Chai Tea Latte, Down Home Tea, Butchertown Soda, Louisville Tea Co. and the Almond Creamery, in addition to recently opened juice bars. Even though we may want to, we can’t drink beer and bourbon all the time.

I also want to see a renewed love for the mint julep. It seems to be cool to dump on this signature drink, which makes me sad. Now, don’t get me wrong, a great mint julep is not easy to pull off even though it can appear very simple. But a julep that strikes the right balance between mint, sweetness and bourbon makes the moment. Louisville should reclaim this “tourist” drink for itself. And that really is why food and drink is so great in Louisville. It’s a key part of our local pride. More exploration means more Louisville love. You can’t beat that. VT Emily Hagedorn can be reached at louisville@yelp.com. Learn more about Yelp at yelp.com/louisville and the Yelp mobile apps at yelp.com/yelpmobile, and be sure to follow @YelpLouisville on Twitter and Instagram.

The Arctic Scoop and Lula’s Frozen Yogurt & Treats freeze the ice cream right in front of you with liquid nitrogen. And then there’s Tasty Tuxedo, which has brought artistry to ice cream sandwiches and serves frozen treats out of a motorcycle sidecar. ETHNIC BRUNCH And lastly, there’s brunch. It seems like Louisville has almost reached critical mass when it comes to restaurants offering new takes on brunch staples, like waffles, pancakes and omelets. Some restaurants are making brunch more cultural, doing something different than the basic American diner-style breakfasts. This includes Con Huevos on Frankfort Avenue. A Mexican-style breakfast with huevos rancheros and chilaquiles? Sí por favor. El Camino in the Highlands also brings some Latin-flavor to the morning with plantain pancakes and other fun fusion favorites. Four Sisters in Clifton highlights the French side of Vietnamese cuisine with crepes. And Ramsi’s Café on the World, while not new to the Louisville culinary landscape, always offers up some ethnic flare in their Sunday brunch.

Brave New Food Trends

Profile

othing says summer like a snow cone – more precisely, a Hawaiian shaved ice cone. And Staff thanks to LouisWriter ville’s climate, summer tends to blend IGOR GURYASHKIN seamlessly into fall and stay warm for much longer than most places around the country. This means there is even more time to enjoy the sun and occasionally treat yourself to something as sweet and refreshing as one of the aforementioned shaved ice cones. Thanks to 17-year-old Michael Buchanan, Louisvillians strolling through the Highlands can stop by a small shack situated in the parking lot of the Dairy Mart on Bardstown Road and enjoy an authentic Hawaiian shaved ice cone at Big Mike’s Shaved Ice. Buchanan, a senior at DeSales High School, opened Big Mike’s Shaved Ice in his home neighborhood of Klondike before moving to his current location. But he opened it in the first place because he saw an old shaved ice place close and thought the city could use a replacement. “The people here in the Highlands are great,” explains Buchanan. “They’ve been really welcoming and constantly coming up to get cones.” In fact, spend some time with Buchanan, and you see a whole swath of people come to A U G U S T 2 0 , 2 0 1 5 • W W W . V O I C E -T R I B U N E . C O M

his shack – families, children and couples of all ages come seeking something to cool them off during the warm season. As they order, Buchanan scrapes the ice gently from his handmade blocks of ice – using his authentic machine – before applying one of a multitude of flavors. On a weekend he does this a lot. Buchanan is likely the hardest working 17-year-old in the city. Before he returned to school last week, he was working every waking hour. And now that school is in session,

he’s juggling the two with the same number of hours albeit with school textbooks nestled in the back. “On August 17, I was back at school. In past years, I was done when school started, but this past year I have been working from 4 to 10 p.m. And on Fridays and Saturdays, I’ll work until midnight. I do homework in the hut. So this semester I am taking an AP social biology class and the textbook is right there!”

P H O T O S B Y C H R I S H U M P H R E Y S | T H E V O I C E -T R I B U N E

Profile

Buchanan’s respect for owning a small business came from his father, also a small business owner, and it was his father who showed him the ropes about managing a business. It’s perhaps this focus on doing things for himself that’s seen Buchanan struggle to hire someone; he prefers to maintain control and ensure high standards. It’s also meant that when disaster strikes – like bad weather – it’s Buchanan alone who is chasing his large umbrellas down a wet and flooded Bardstown Road in the middle of a summer storm. “I’m exhausted,” adds Buchanan. “But I don’t think about it. I just get up and I have a routine. There are a lot of days when I want to lay in bed and sleep all day – it gets very busy here on the weekends. But I just get up. I tell myself, I’m going to feel better when I get there.” As for what drives the young man to keep coming back every day? The answer is the love of people and growing and developing something on your own terms. “I love it; it’s my business,” concludes Buchanan. “I want this to be good, and you see how many people love the ice. I don’t want to risk bringing someone in and then it’s not as good.” And perhaps money may play just a little role. “I have one goal in mind, and it sounds crazy, but I want to be a millionaire by the time I graduate college.” VT

Business

The Fine and Friendly Fish Folk

bout six months ago, some new proprietors hung a sign in front of their store at the end of a line of Chenoweth Square shops. Beckoning folks inside, the fishshaped marker signified the beginning of Doug and Lori Elder’s determination to lure customers to their fish market.

That’s when the current owners entered the picture.

Business Profile WES KERRICK

At Highland Fish Market – Chenoweth Square, the Elders prides themselves on having the best selection and freshest seafood in Louisville. “It’s what we try to do every day,” Doug says. The couple assumed operation of the St. Matthews store last February. It had been opened in November 2013 by the owner of Highland Fish Market in Middletown, which has been in business nearly 20 years. But running the two stores along with some other business ventures had proven too much for one person – Gary Hirsch – to do at once.

Doug and Lori Elder had been talking about buying a business of their own – perhaps a restaurant or a small retail operation. Doug, a cousin of Hirsch’s wife, had been working in the scrap metal industry since age 25. He was ready for a career change.

Last December, while Hirsch was attending a family gathering at the Elders’ home, he got into a conversation with someone about how he was spread too thin. From the next room, Doug overheard him. “When I heard Gary say that, my ears perked up,” Doug recalls. He went to his wife with an idea: to buy Hirsch’s Chenoweth store. “That could be just what we’re looking for,” he told her. Lori agreed. In a matter of months, the store had changed hands. And although the Elders had never done anything quite like this before, they picked it up readily, and the transition was smooth. “We were fortunate because Gary was willing to fill us in on all the details,” Doug says. “He held back nothing, and he answered every question and made it easy.”

On a recent morning, the store is stocked up with cuts of fresh fish plus a vast selection of balsamic vinegars and olive oils that customers are welcome to taste.

Every square inch of the store is pristinely clean. A couple steps in from the sidewalk. The Elders greet them immediately, and the customers begin by saying they’re new in town. That makes the Elders happy. It means word is spreading. “People come in and tell us: ‘So-and-so told me I should come in,’” Doug says. Six months in, the Elders have taken the long-respected Highland Fish Market name and run with it, and they’re building a strong reputation of their own right. Customers often request specific types of fish or seafood, Doug says. The Elders always listen, and as often as they can, they make it happen. “If it’s something that we don’t have in our display case, generally we can get it the next day,” he says. They keep their stock fresh by working with several suppliers. The store gets deliveries daily, sometimes twice a day. The art of running a successful fish market lies in ordering just the right products in the right quantities at the right time: a situation also faced by chefs at restaurants. “It is tricky,” Doug says, “because the goal is to keep it fresh, and you want to order enough to have enough to sell.” The new store has proven, indeed, to be just what the Elders were looking for. Doug used to make a long commute to work. “I’d leave early, get home late and could see Lori a couple hours a day,” he recalls. But the fish market is just a mile and a half away from their Beechwood Village home. “Now I see her all day long,” he says. VT Highland Fish Market – Chenoweth Square is open Monday-Saturday, 10 a.m.-6 p.m. and Sunday, noon-5 p.m. For more information, visit highlandfish.com or call the store at 502.895.4347.

Last year, Trinity walked away with it all. Who will claim state this year? Here are some of the best match-ups from the opening weekend. Defending 2014 6A champion Trinity Shamrocks is looking to defend their crown this season versus Ensworth, Tennessee at 7:30 p.m. The Male Bulldogs, a powerhouse in class 6A that went 11-1 last season will host Floyd Central at 7:30 p.m. And finally, the Yellowjackets of Central, who compete in class 3A and were runner-up in the state championship last year, will travel to play the Crimsons of DuPont Manual at 7:30 p.m. P H OTO B Y D A M O N AT H E R TO N | C O N T R I B U T I N G P H OTO G R A P H E R

(And the Carolina Lamborghini choices, etc. – it’s what STEVE might be getting recalled.) But I just they do! And people who KAUFMAN don’t see them going after Cal – or want to save money on him after them. Not a great fit. car insurance go to GEICO, yadda Calipari and Kentucky? Great fit. He’s Bear yadda.) Bryant redux, only this time UK is keeping him.

John Calipari stirs the pot. It’s what he does. In August – baseball pennant races, the PGA tournament, the U.S. Open tennis championships and the lead-up to the football season – basketball seems very far away. And yet, another storm brewing around Calipari World has lit up the sports sites and blogs. This one has Cal confronting another coach who had been accusing him of recruiting a high school kid from under his nose. According to CBS-TV’s Gary Parrish, who reported the story, Calipari said: “Yes, I am the type of guy who can come in at the last minute and take any player I want from you. You can spend your whole life recruiting a kid [but] at the end of the day, if I want him, I’ll get him. If we want him, we’ll get him. Don’t ever get that confused. Be appreciative every time I don’t come in and get your guy. “It’s just that I’m me, and we’re Kentucky, and we can come in and get that kid whenever we want.” In other words, it’s what we do. In the reports, the descriptions of Cal varied from “cocky” and “swagger” to “aggrieved” and “pleading his case,” depending on who was posting the item. It’s the old love/hate story with Cal – unless he’s on your side. Just consider – and I’m in no way suggesting this was any kind of possibility – but imagine Cal had taken the vacant Florida job. And suddenly Isaiah Briscoe and Skal Labissiere were dumping UK and declaring for Gainesville. Big Blue Nation would be on Cal like Rand Paul on Trump. He must be cheating!

Because when Cal lashed out at the other coach, he wasn’t saying, “I can get whomever I want.” He was saying, “Kentucky and I – we – can get whomever we want.” As ESPN’s Tony Kornheiser said that night on “Pardon the Interruption,” Kentucky is the promised land of college basketball. All those comparisons last winter to Alabama football are right on the money. Neither SEC program wins every year. But they’re both always in the hunt; both have that love-him-or-hate-him-but-yagotta-respect-him head coach; both are able to sell tradition and success; and both place their athletes in the pros. Lucratively! The kids say it themselves. “Why Kentucky? Because – it’s Kentucky!” Kentucky hasn’t won it all every year. In fact, some are now starting to say maybe Cal can’t handle the Ferrari. He can drive it, but can he park it? Still, who was everybody talking about in this year’s Final Four? The undefeated Wildcats. And who gobbled up the oxygen in the room the year before? The improbable, buzzer-beating Wildcats. High school athletes may remember that long after they’ve forgotten who won the tournament. This is what else Calipari can do whenever he wants. He can grab the microphone. Who else invited all the pro scouts and held a nationally televised combine featuring just his guys? Who else can drop words like “tweak” and “platoon” into a basketball conversation, and they go viral? Who else shows up on NBA draft night and gets interviewed on national TV? Cal makes it clear exactly who’s responsible for the Anthony Davis or Karl-Anthony Towns lottery pick.

But Cal’s not going to Florida and probably not to the NBA, either, any time soon. Here’s why I think so, and it relates back to this most recent storm.

And high school athletes will certainly remember that.

I can’t imagine money is an incentive for Calipari anymore, and maybe not ego either. He

Yes, he stirs the pot. But it’s his pot, and he controls the spoon. VT

CARDINAL FOOTBALL TO KNOCK OFF EITHER FLORIDA STATE OR CLEMSON (OR BOTH) For the second straight summer, the UofL football team has seen experts across the country consistently lump the Cards into a “top tier” of the ACC’s Atlantic Division that also includes Florida State and Clemson. As flattering as that is considering the national profile of both the Seminoles and Tigers, Louisville needs to actually knock off one of their new “rivals” if they want the designation to stick.

as college basketball’s showcase table-setter for the big dance. The tournament has moved into the Big East’s old primetime Saturday night slot on ESPN and is even moving to New York in 2017. With the ACC again appearing to be the deepest and most talented conference in the country, it would be exciting to see the Cards make a seri-

ous run at hoisting the league’s tournament trophy. JEFF WALZ’S PHENOMENAL FIVE TO LIVE UP TO THE HYPE The Fab Five has been done to death, so let’s go with “Phenomenal Five” for Jeff Walz’s top-ranked crop of five incoming freshmen. Headlined by Asia Durr – the No. 1 player in the class of 2015 according to most scouting services – the class includes five players who were all ranked in the top 15 nationally at their respective positions by ESPN. Walz has done more than most people could have ever imagined at Louisville, but now he wants to do more. And “more” for a program that has lost in the national championship game twice can only mean one thing. The Cards are unlikely to get to that point this season, but if the Phenomenal Five plays as well as advertised, toppling Connecticut is certainly within the realm of possibilities before the ladies graduate. THE MEN’S SOCCER SEASON TO COME TO A MORE SATISFYING END In a season that was loaded with what-ifs for Louisville basketball and football, the biggest heartbreak may have come on the pitch. Ken Lolla’s Cardinals were mere seconds away from becoming UofL’s first ACC champions before an equalizing goal in the final seconds of the tournament championship game set the stage for Clemson to steal the day. The gut-punches continued a couple weeks later when the Cards saw their path to the College Cup derailed via a fairly stunning 1-0 upset at the hands of UMBC. The pieces are again in place for Louisville to be in the thick of the national discussion in 2015.

The Cards were oh-soclose to getting the better of both league powerhouses last year. They came up just three yards short of upsetting a Clemson squad that hung on despite not scoring an offensive touchdown. Then, they squandering a 21-0 lead against Florida State in a Thursday night showdown a couple weeks later. The potential for Thursday night redemption at Papa John’s Cardinal Stadium exists in the form of a Clemson visit on September 17, and if UofL falls short in that tilt, there’s another shot at a national splash exactly one month later in Tallahassee.

Along with cheering for the Kentucky troops, betting on our locals who summer in New York has frequently been a profitable exercise. Successful Kentucky invaders often get away at odds that are better than those at Churchill Downs or Keeneland.

The one Kentucky-based connection with a chance to win a title at Saratoga is the ownership team of Ken and Sara Ramsey. The Nicholasville power couple currently sits in third place in the “leading owner” race with five triumphs, one behind co-leaders Godolphin Racing and the team of Klaravich Stables and William Lawrence.

But this year, the Kentucky-based stables and riders will likely be happy to bid farewell to Saratoga and return home for the September-through-November run of racing at Churchill Downs and Keeneland. It all begins with the Louisville track’s September meet, opening September 11.

ic battle for the Churchill Downs Spring Meet – settled in Lanerie’s favor in the meet’s final race – have been freezing cold in the summer. As of August 18, Leparoux had one win in 71 mounts, with the latter total consisting of fewer than half of the opportunities enjoyed by the meet-leading Ortiz. Leparoux’s mounts have collected 14 finishes of second or third. Lanerie was still searching for his first success after 47 races, although nine of his mounts have run second or third. Rafael Hernandez, at 1-for41, is the only other Kentucky-based rider with a victory at Saratoga. He had ridden 17 horses that finished 2-3, with 10 of those in the runner-up spot.

Wins at the Spa have been unusually scarce this summer for the Bluegrass Brigade. As of Tuesday, August 18, Irad Ortiz Jr. led the Saratoga jockey standings with 36 wins, and Javier Castellano and John Velazquez were deadlocked in the runner-up spot at 27 wins. A glance through the

Jockey Shaun Bridgmohan has seven wins at Saratoga and is the top Kentucky performer at the New York track.

The success rate is slightly higher in fewer attempts for Kentucky-based trainers. Steve Asmussen and Mike Maker each has four Spa wins. They will not threaten meet co-leaders Chad Brown and Todd Pletcher, who are tied at 21 victories, but there’s time for both to reach double figures by the time Saratoga racing wraps up on September 7.

Other names from the Saratoga trainer standings familiar to Kentucky fans include Joe Sharp, who is a solid 3-for17 with his young stable, along with Wesley Ward (three wins), Brad Cox (three), Mark Casse (two), Eddie Kenneally (two), Al Stall Jr.

Still looking for their first Saratoga win as of August 18 were Kentucky stars Bret Calhoun, Ken McPeek, Ian Wilkes and Rusty Arnold. The membership of that last group is a pretty good measure of the difficulty of winning at the demanding Saratoga session, as is the roster of non-Kentucky trainers still looking for their initial success at Saratoga 2015. The latter group includes three Kentucky Derby winners in Nick Zito, Michael Matz and John Servis, and three-time Kentucky Oaks winner J. Larry Jones.

While the Saratoga meet has been a struggle this summer for most Kentucky-based riders and trainers, a better measure of Kentucky racing’s quality remains evident in their respective rates of success over the last several years. Racing is an ebb-and-flow business, and very heavy on the ebb. It will be good to welcome our local stars back to Churchill Downs and Kentucky over the next few weeks. And that warm feeling, as much as any time in recent years, should go both ways. VT

Young Kentucky-based trainer Joe Sharp has three wins so far in his first Saratoga meet.

UofL football kicks off the 2015 season on September 5 in Atlanta against No. 7 Auburn in the Chick-fil-A Kickoff Game. The Cards have a quarterback battle in camp with three returnees who led them to wins in 2014. Their biggest wins, over Miami, at Notre Dame and over Kentucky, were all orchestrated by different signal callers. Will Gardner, Reggie Bonnafon and Kyle Bolin are all in the mix to start the opener. Gardner threw for 1,669 yards and 12 touchdowns. Bonnafon threw for 864 and 5 scores and ran for 5 more. Bolin threw for 716 yards and four touchdowns, including his 381 yard, 3 TD effort in the 44-40 win over Kentucky. Gardner: I had a good feeling about it just because I felt what I felt in there, but I kind of had a good idea.

I got cleared the day of camp from my knee injury, so I didn’t have much strength in my lower body. I wasn’t as confident in my abilities because I hadn’t been on the field in a while. I wasn’t used to Coach McGee said he never throwing with the receivers. Consaw you get down. How did Taylor’s 10 fidence was low, and it just continyou manage that? ued to go downhill because I wasn’t Gardner: When I did it, I came KENT performing as well as I wanted to toward the sideline and he was like, during camp. This year, with the TAYLOR “What are you doing? You’ve got WAVE3 Sports UK game and the Georgia game to get back out there.” It was in the as experience and going through middle of a drive, and I went back out there, spring, being healthy, being in the weight but I kind of had a feeling then about what room from December through the beginning had happened. of camp, my confidence is through the roof. Redshirt sophomore Will Gardner.

How do you handle this quarterback battle? Will Gardner: Just go out every day and compete and work hard. It’s left up to the coaches, and at the end of the day, they’re going to make the best decision for the team. So it’s just competing and working hard each and every day. Where do you feel like you are as far as strength in that injured knee? Gardner: I feel stronger; my knee feels good. I haven’t had any bumps or any hiccups along the way. It feels really good right now.

There is a lot of attention on Will, coming back from injury, and Lamar, as the newcomer. You won at Notre Dame; where do you feel like you fit in? Reggie Bonnafon: It’s great. I love it. Not a lot of schools have the depth that we have at quarterback. It was proven last year that we can go three deep and still win the big games. It feels good to walk in the quarterback room and know that everybody sitting at that table can play at this level and really compete. Once you go out to practice, you have to really be on your A game. Like Coach Petrino says, iron sharpens iron – we’re all making each other better. How do you see the game differently?

How much does everything slow down for you in the second year in this offense? Gardner: It slows down a lot. I mean, I realized that toward the end of the year last year and then even coming into camp early. You have a better understanding of the offenses and the defenses. When you made that throw in the Boston College game and you hurt your knee, did you know right away it was the same injury you’d had before?

Bonnafon: I can in the Notre Dame game. Sometimes I would call a different play that wasn’t even in the playbook, but it worked. I can see more things. It’s hard to explain sometimes. In a sense, you can see cuts a lot better, you can see defenders in your drops.

How much time did you spend at home in Lexington during the off season? Bolin: Not as much. Actually, my parents came to see me a lot. I just got a new car, and I didn’t want to run the miles up and pay for gas. My family, my mom and my brother just moved to Bourbon County. There’s not as much to do in Bourbon County, so they like to come up here. We went to a Bats game, we went to Kings Island. So you’re not walking around in Lexington with your UofL stuff on, getting heckled by UK fans? Bolin: I haven’t had any hate; I guess most people are proud to see a Lexington guy be successful, and you know they may be UK fans but they respect me as a player. Most of the hate comes on social media sites. I don’t have a Twitter anymore. VT

How is it different for you this year, having done what you did in the Kentucky game? Sophomore Reggie Bonnafon.

Fondy Keeps FC Fantastic

or the first time this season, the voting for the United Soccer League’s Player of the Week was unanimous. Louisville City FC forward Matt Fondy was given the award for the third time this season, making him the first player to do so in 2015.

STEVE PEAKE

The star striker hit the back of the net four times on Wednesday versus the Harrisburg City Islanders at the Skyline Sports Complex. In what has been called by Lou City fans a

#MatTrick, his first goal came in the second minute as he flicked the ball past the keeper from a Lou City corner taken by Enrique Montano, who was named to the USL Team of the Week. It was only the beginning of what would be a career day for both Fondy and Montano.

Montano sent a long ball that got Fondy through behind the defense. The 26-year-old made a wise decision to slow down as he approached the keeper and fired it past him for his second goal of the night. Fondy completed his hat trick in the 43rd minute on a penalty kick and finished his fourth on another fine delivery from Bryan

Burke.

It marked the first time this season a USL player has scored more than three goals in a single match and the second hat trick of the season for the California native. Montano got a second assist when he crossed one into the box for Kadeem Dacres who struck the volley past a helpless Harrisburg keeper. With eight results in nine games, seven of them being wins, an appearance on the Top 10 of “SportsCenter” and a four-goal performance from Fondy, Louisville City FC players have been getting a lot of national attention as of late. With Fondy and Montano receiving honors from the league today, the spotlight continues to shine on the first-year club. VT

Having both the Manning family of them as a coach helps me focus putting their stamp on the and have an edge on everything industry in such a way that because they’ve gone through is truly compelling to specwhat I’ve gone through.” High School tators everywhere. Think It is not too often that you see a Sports Report about it. Archie Manning family trio of quarterbacks in high made his legacy as a quarRANDY school and punters in college. For terback during his football WHETSTONE JR. Johnson, there was a bit of prescareer, only to have two of sure going into his freshman year his sons, Peyton and Eli, do the same of high school. Since dad and brother precedthing. The Manning family exempli- ed him, he felt there was something to prove. fies the phrase ‘Like Father, Like Son.’ But he says, “I finally realized that I am not

At 425 W. Kenwood Drive, DeSales High School has been a witness to a unique family tradition. Austin Johnson, senior quarterback at DeSales and future UofL punter, is walking in the same footsteps as his father, Jeff Johnson, and brother, Ryan Johnson. “My dad punted for EKU, and he was also quarterback here. My brother punted for UofL, and he played quarterback here. So I am following in the footsteps. We all made our mark and all made a piece of his-

them, and I did my own thing and made my own history. The pressure went away as I went to my sophomore and junior year.” DeSales stands as the defending 2013 and 2014 Class 2A state champions. Johnson, in his senior year, says he would love to threepeat. “Everyone wants to, but you have to take one thing at a time. We stay humble and hungry here. So that’s what it is about.” Head Coach, Harold Davis, who lives in the same neighborhood as Johnson, has been a major part to the nurturing of Austin’s QB

mechanics. Perhaps he sensed the genetics between the trio of family members when he asked Johnson to make the transition to quarterback his junior season. “His dad was a punter for Eastern and his brother just graduated from UofL as a punter,” said Davis. “That work ethic he has with punting he has brought along with the quarterback position. He’s done everything we have asked. Last year was pretty tough for him to step in at quarterback as a junior replacing a two-year starter there. He has done pretty good.” In the meantime, Coach tells Johnson to not get overzealous about his commitment to UofL, for there is one last season to be played in a Colts jersey. But despite the excitement, he says Johnson has handled it well. The soon to be Cardinal said the recruiting process was not too difficult for him. He narrowed his choices down to UK, WKU and UofL. When speaking with the coaches at Louisville, he says he felt an instantaneous bond, which secured his decision. He will look to make a major impact to the program next year, as he says he wants to write his own piece of history. “I am going to do my job, give them field position and then give the defense a little edge, but I have to finish out my senior year, finish what I started here. I’m starting QB for the second year, and I want to finish it out with a bang. I know my teammates want to, and I am going to do whatever it takes for them.” He has endured the pressures of leading an offense. An innate ability in punting, a rigid mental toughness and dedicated training are not the only reasons Johnson has been successful. He says the support he has received from family and friends have helped him as well. “The whole community and support of my teammates and family have all pushed me to do the best I can do. When my head gets off track, they are there to put me right back on track. I am thankful for them and couldn’t thank them enough for that.” As he continues his football career, there are two close persons in Johnson’s life who understand the transition from high school quarterback to college punter. Jeff and Ryan Johnson have become two special coaches in the life of their son and brother. At the end of the day, he knows they are, “Pushing me really hard because they know my ability and want what’s best for me.” VT

During the summer, a group of what I would call summer angels, spent an enormous amount of time working in the children’s garden beside the art therapy room. Peggy Duane was the head angel who encouraged all the work from Patty Rogers, Elaine Young, Sue Peege, Hedy Arrell, Aida Toma, Judy Stacey, Patty and Linda Steder, Maddie Duane and Jackson Donovan.

Contraceptive measures for boys are limited and fallible, and I am concerned. My nephews’ mother entrapped their now-absent father, so I doubt she’ll mention this to them. How and when does a relative talk to soon-to-be teen boys about entrapment? – ANONYMOUS RELATIVE DEAR RELATIVE: The subject of contraception should be part of an ongoing, age-appropriate conversation about sex and reproduction. Boys and girls mature physically earlier than they did decades ago, and because of the internet, they are often exposed to a wide variety of information. I do think a warning is in order because of your regrettable family situation. However, you should be aware that no law dictates that a man “has” to marry a woman (or girl) he has gotten pregnant.

Couture & Cocktails Grand Opening Celebration Thursday August 27th 5-9pm 3704 Lexington Rd. In The Heart of St. Matthews

••• DEAR ABBY: I got my sister a job at my workplace, and she has now fallen in love with one of my co-workers, “Bill.” The problem is, he’s married and has children. Bill’s wife works here, too, and she recently found out about the romance. Bill and his wife talked and decided to work things out. I have now learned that Bill and my sister are still dating and have even discussed marriage. I had decided to stay out of it, but I’m friends with this couple and I feel obligated to let the wife know. Should I stay silent and let her find out for herself ? How do I make my sister realize this is not a good path she is going down? – STUCK IN THE MIDDLE DEAR STUCK: Bill’s wife already knows she’s married to a cheater. She doesn’t need you to tell her. Do, however, talk to your sister and remind her that this is a no-win situation for her. When Bill’s wife realizes the affair is ongoing, she’ll either see to it that the romance is over once and for all – which means your sister will end up brokenhearted – or she’ll divorce him. If she divorces Bill and he marries your sister, your sister will have a husband with a history of cheating and heavy child support payments. That’s hardly a guarantee of a happy ending. ••• Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

Allan, Jake, Lindsey and Kate Latts at the 2014 Louisville’s Got Talent.

SPOTLIGHT

hat started as a bar mitzvah project for Jake Latts has turned into a star-studded annual entertainment event in Louisville. Louisville’s Got Talent, now in its third year, encourages young people, ages 7-18, to strut their star stuff in auditions and win prizes and accolades. Young people from the Louisville area will compete for cash prizes ranging from $100 to $500 and the opportunity to be seen by local talent agencies and directors, all while raising money for CenterStage Acting Out, a program that brings live theatre to public schools. When he launched Louisville’s Got Talent three years ago, Latts never expected the event to get so big. “I definitely did not think it would become an annual event,” he says. He was surprised when 98 young people showed up to audition the very first year. “I was surprised at the range of kids from all around the community, from southern Indiana and other parts of Kentucky,” he says, also noting that the first wave of candidates A U G U S T 2 0 , 2 0 1 5 • W W W .

Louisville’s Got Talent were of all different ages. It’s customary for young men and women to do some kind of community service project for their bar mitzvah when they are 13, Latts explains, but, typically, “they do it on a much smaller scale.” When he came up with Louisville’s Got Talent, he had in mind to raise money for CenterStage Acting Out, a traveling theatre program for local schools. Each Acting Out show is educational, and the program provides study guides to the teachers to help fulfill state education requirements. Latts, now 15, says he himself was privileged to see a lot of theatre and concerts when he was very young, and he wants other young people to share that experience. Latts, who acts, sings and plays piano and guitar, hopes to be a stage actor in New York.

Latts continues to take an important role in Louisville’s Got Talent. This year, he will be a judge on the early rounds, and he will co-emcee the event with CenterStage Artistic Director John Leffert. This year’s finale judges will be Louisville Orchestra Music Director Teddy Abrams, Louisville Ballet Artistic Director Robert Curran, WAVE 3’s Shannon Cogan, Louisville Youth Choir’s Terri Foster and other Louisville professionals. Auditions for Louisville’s Got Talent are 3-5 p.m. Sunday, August 30 at the Jewish Community Center. Participants must register in advance at CenterStageJCC.org/talent. It is only $15 per person to audition, and the top 20 acts will go on to compete in the Live Finale at 2 p.m. Sunday, September 20. VT Tickets for the Sept. 20 showcase are $7 for children and $12 for adults. To register to participate or purchase tickets, go to centerstagejcc.org/talent or call 502.238.2763. Sponsorship opportunities are also available.

festival is open to everyone, not just members. Aside from the fact that the JCC is hosting something fun for all, as always there is a charitable message to spread. In the tradition of the JCC’s 125 years of service, the JCC has teamed up with Yum! Brands Foundation to feed the city’s people in need with a “Food, Glorious Food” drive, named for CenterStage at the JCC’s next musical: “Oliver!” Visitors to the

festival are invited to bring nonperishable food items to donate to local food pantries. “We encourage everyone to bring their canned food items to this free event and join us in having a day filled with fun and continue to help feed the needy in our community, ” Tasman presents. “My vision is to use the whole outside of the JCC,” adds Abby Tasman, fellow co-chair of the event. “We’re going to have something fun for all age groups. There will be something for every member and people who don’t know much about the JCC can come and find something to do.” She adds: “The JCC has been serving the community for 125 years, and this is our way of saying ‘thank you.’ Wear your bathing suit and tennis shoes because you’ll get a chance to use both!” In many ways, this event is for anybody who has driven past the JCC and wondered what’s inside. On August 23, Louisvillians will see that there are at least 125 funpacked things to do that day. VT

get televisions that look like a framed painting or a mirror. On the floor, more and more clients are also moving toward the cleaner and more natural looking jute rugs as opposed to the more common colorful rugs. BATHROOMS In their bathrooms, people are doing “a lot of interesting things with tile,” says Saladino, especially with herringbone style patterns. People are moving toward glass doors and away from shower curtains. But that loss of fabric can cost a bathroom some of its warmth. “I like to see an ottoman, if your bathroom is large enough,” says Saladino. “You can move it around, sit on it, use it as your vanity stool.” And the fabric of the ottoman puts some texture in your bathroom. As far as sinks are concerned, “people are still wanting to be different,” says Saladino. One of her customers had a sink that looked like a bourbon barrel. People like vanities made out of re-purposed antique furniture, and wallpaper is making a comeback, specifically in bathrooms, she notes. “You can get your pattern and your color that way.”

KITCHENS In their kitchens, clients are moving away from plain white cabinets and opting for more colors, especially blue and gray. She’s also seeing a trend toward open shelving above the cabinets. As far as countertops go, people are moving away from granite and exploring other options like butcher block, marble, quartz and concrete. “The kitchen island is still big,” says Saladino. And people like them large. “Some people will do two islands if their kitchen is big enough.” RE-PURPOSED SPACE

NOTHING SAYS WELCOME QUITE LIKE BEAUTIFULLY CRAFTED DOORWAYS AND WINDOWS.

If you don’t need a formal dining room, there’s no reason not to convert it to a study for your children, Saladino says. She encourages customers not to be a slave to conventional ideas about home layout. “I think it’s just whatever your individual needs are,” she explains. “Think about what your needs are and we can change it.” VT

But each one symbolizes countless hours of blood, sweat and tears honing a craft that’s a staggeringly unique blend of elegance and raw athleticism.

After making their way down country roads to get to the farm, which is 15 minutes outside Louisville, concert-goers assembled on the farm’s meadow and took their seats on lawn chairs and blankets. The concert was set in the middle of the 1,300-acre biodynamic farm where the owners practice a style of organic farming that considers the ecosystem of the land in its entirety. All parts of the farm – livestock, trees, plants, bugs and wildlife – are interconnected and contribute to one another. In place of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, the Foxhollow farmers use compost and companion planting. They use sprays derived from medicinal plants, quartz and aged manure. Nellie Pearl band members were fresh from The Church, a recording studio in Plymouth, Michigan, where they had been cutting their new album, “Lonesome No More,” named after a slogan in Kurt Vonnegut’s novel “Slapstick.” The group’s first album, “So It Goes,” also took its name from Vonnegut – this one from “Slaughterhouse-Five” – explained Jonathon Mitchell, who sings and plays guitar in the band. Most of the songs they played were from their new album. Their buttoned-down rock sound – with a violinist and a lead vocalist who sounds much like Billie Holiday – defies categorization. Their new album will be available on iTunes, P H O T O S B Y LY N N H A M I LT O N

Similarly, the music of Small Time Napoleon fused the genres of jazz, Texas swing, and Americana. The four-man band, which includes a stand-up bass, drum kit, acoustic guitar and electric guitar, played several original songs from their new album, including “Boring Little Play,” “Sucker for a Tomboy” and “Packed.”

hollow Farm Sunset Concert Series will be September 11. The mission of the concert series is to help the larger metropolitan community connect with agriculture. Currently, the farm is not releasing the name of the bands that will be playing in September. The last concert will be a summer send-off party.

Women wore sun dresses and cowboy boots or hippie dresses and sandals, and men wore polo shirts and shorts. The area in front of the stage turned into an informal mosh pit for children who were dancing with each other and their parents. Those children, more interested in gymnastics than in music, enjoyed jumping off a set of nearby hay bales. Foxhollow Farm does not allow outside food or drink during the concerts, but there was no need to go hungry as food and beverage trucks were serving a range of beverages from bourbon to watermelon lemonade and a selection of food from summer salads to black bean burgers and meatloaf. Vendors sold special dishes that made use of Foxhollow Farm’s grass fed beef, pork, lamb and vegetables. The last concert of the Fox-

Movie Diary: August 2015 –Part 2 Film BENNETT DUCKWORTH

bennettduckworth.blogspot.com

The movie chronicles the glory, tragedy and legacy of Ice Cube (O’Shea Jackson Jr. – Ice Cube’s real life son), Easy-E ( Jason Mitchell), and Dr. Dre (Corey Hawkins) over 147 minutes of beautifully shot, decently acted material that is sadly unfocused in structure and boring in its dialogue. Other than the epic concert scenes, the re-enactments fail to be truly compelling and left me with a bigger appetite for something closer to the truth – like a documentary.

Bennett Duckworth is a film fanatic who lives in Louisville and goes to see a movie in the theater at least once a week. He has kept a movie review blog since September of 2011 with the mission of writing about every new release he sees, as well as new trends in film making and classic films he loves. Read more of his reviews at his website.

o make a personal confession, I’ve been having a bad week. Along with other troubling personal issues in my life, Andrew Vititoe, a staple in Louisville’s music and movie culture, has inexplicably left this world. For a decade, Andrew, his brother Chris and their friends produced video shorts and loud music influenced by movies from the 80s. Their work embodied the playfulness our serious local arts scene was starved for. For me, Andrew was a great guy to chat with at bars and in theatre lobbies. He was a hybrid of jock and nerd, and as his memorial service indicated last Sunday, he was friend to a greatnumber of people. Movies serve a lot of my needs, but they definitely offer an escape during times when I’m troubled. If I had been smart, I would have taken the advice of the few folks who have bothered seeing Aardman Animation’s latest stop-motion animated movie, “Shaun the Sheep,” for its dialogue-free goofiness. Seeing “The Man From U.N.C.L.E.” may

Andrew Vititoe (pictured here in 2013) once turned a screening of “Robocop” into an experience that felt like an ’80s fever dream with the help of his fellow Ultra Pulverize bandmates Chris Vititoe (left) and Jared Busch (right) at Baxter Avenue Theaters.

In a departure from hardcore rap music, I caught up with “classic rock” and Meryl Streep in “Ricki and the Flash.” I find it embarrassing to call this movie disappointing. I found the trailer to be such a turnoff that it’s amazing I was able to maintain a little faith in the people involved in its making. After “Young Adult,” I had finally come to like Diablo Cody as a screenwriter; aging director Jonathan Demme has proved, with films like “Rachel Getting Married,” that he still has a strong empathetic vision and a love for music; and Meryl Streep always has something new to prove.

be among my priorities as well, but I just saw “Mission: Impossible” recently and espionage can take a break for now. “Straight Outta Compton” was all the rage over the weekend, and I felt an obligation to see how the original story of those who pioneered Gangsta’ Rap on the West Coast would play cinematically. Unsurprisingly, director F. Gary Gray gives us a movie filled with what I don’t typically enjoy about biopics, particularly those attempting to cover the lives of multiple figures. You don’t have to like aggressive hip-hop in order to appreciate this movie’s intentions; hip-hop’s never been my thing. However, I’ve always been infuriated by ignorance surrounding the music’s existence. This movie is seeing success because we still live in troubled times between citizens and law enforcement. The blatant brutal racism of the LAPD in the late ’80s/early ’90s is on display in the film and serves to remind us all of where the anger of these artists came from.

The film focuses on Streep as the title character, the singer of a rock cover band that plays regularly at a blue-collar California bar. Ricki, while out of money, goes to visit her estranged well-off family in Indiana due to a crisis with one of her grown children, Julie (Mamie Gummer – Streep’s real life daughter). Ricki’s ex-husband, Pete (Kevin Kline), is the most welcoming while Julie and her two siblings reasonably resent the mother who rejected them during childhood while pursuing a career as a musician. This seems like a good concept for a movie, but it never comes together in an impressive way. Even with the benefit of Gummer in the cast, I still didn’t believe the film’s characters could have ever shared a kinship, and I found a lot of the dramatic scenarios to be forced and unbelievable. That was my week: I lost a good artist who made music about movies and I saw two lame movies about music. Why didn’t I go see “Shaun the Sheep” instead? VT

Mo’ Money, Less Problems

art boutique, part gallery, Revelry has succeeded as both. But it wasn’t always easy – their original location in the Highlands on Barret Avenue suffered from the closure of neighbor Lynn’s Paradise Café, which led to their current location on East Market Street in NuLu.

Have you learned some painful lessons along the way? Was the post-Lynn’s period on Baxter the worst of times for the shop?

Arts & Entertainment PETER BERKOWITZ Peter’s Picks

Fueled by a mission to make local art accessible and further supported by sales of handmade jewelry, home decor, screenprints, photography, gifts and more, Revelry boss Mo McKnight Howe is celebrating her fifth year in business this Saturday evening from 7 to 10 p.m. with a party and new art featuring Mike Maydak’s “Heritage” exhibition. Maydak was an artist who took a chance on showing at the fledgling business from its earliest days, and this weekend’s activities will highlight how both the art and the business have evolved at Revelry. I caught up with Howe to ask why, where, which and when. How has a unique, locally focused business survived in these crazy times? Hard work, a local-loving community and a new location. It’s not always easy, but no small business is. Louisville has a wealth of incredible artistic talent and a strong contingent of people who support local arts and business. PHOTO COURTESY OF MO MCKNIGHT HOWE

Every small business owner goes through thin, challenging times. Every day is a lesson. Moving to NuLu drastically changed the course for Revelry. It’s been an incredible journey, and the future for Rev is bright.

Who are some of your personal favorite artists who have shown and/or sold there? Right now, Ewa Perz is killing the oil game. She just dropped off 10 of her newest oil paintings and I covet them all. Julio Cesar, a master oil painter, is constantly going to impress me with what he is creating. And, of course, Lyndi Lou, who helps me curate quite a few shows at Revelry, is always going to be a favorite. Honestly, we have over 115 hand-selected artists showing in here at one time. We chose them because we love their work and admire their talent. They are all my favorite!

newest paintings and prints. What kind of special treats will you be sharing with the people to celebrate this big birthday? Five days of discounts leading up to the anniversary. We never do discounts because it’s hard with handmade things, but we want to say thanks to everyone who has supported us over the years! We will also have cupcakes, drinks and a special art project for those who want to partake. Should be a night of revelry! Get it? How do you feel about the evolution of the NuLu area? Has it peaked or is there still more room for growth? NuLu’s growth is far from over. Louisville’s urban core is key to the city’s growth, and NuLu is the natural gateway to a downtown that’s rapidly evolving. There’s five new businesses opening here in the next month! It’s an exciting time to be a part of this community. My husband Scotty and I recently bought a home in Butchertown and have fully embraced NuLu, both professionally and personally. I’m glad we made the move.

Tell us about Mike Maydak and his relationship with the business.

Where do you buy art outside of Revelry?

Mike Maydak was the first artist we featured at Revelry’s grand opening five years ago. He’s most known for his painting of an exaggerated 400 W. Main building (the Aegon building), which sold the night of the grand opening. I asked him to come back for the five-year anniversary to go full circle with this thing. I’m looking forward to showing his

I buy art in all sorts of places. I bought a small Shane Hull two weeks ago at Chuck Swanson’s because I like supporting other local galleries. I’ll pick up pieces at Mudpies Studio, the Flea, Louisville Visual Art to support them, and I buy art when I travel to remember the places I’ve been. Scotty and I are still working on our collection; we’ve got a long way to go! VT

“SEVEN GUITARS” PRESENTED BY ACTORS THEATRE LOUISVILLE After serving jail time on a trumped-up vagrancy charge, blues musician Floyd Barton sets out to win back his girl and reclaim his pawned guitar, hoping to make a new hit record. Set in 1948 in the backyard of a Pittsburgh apartment house, “Seven Guitars” follows Floyd’s circle of friends and neighbors – the play’s seven voices – as they spin a rich tale of the deck that’s stacked against them, what they’ve lost and all they dream. This lyrical play is part of August Wilson’s Century Cycle, which charts the African-American experience through each decade of the 20th century. The show runs through September 20, and tickets start at $25. MORE INFO actorstheatre.org

A handsome army captain, separated from his beautiful – but married – mistress, is forced to re-evaluate his beliefs about love when he becomes the object of the obsessive, unrelenting passions of Fosca, his Colonel’s plain, sickly cousin. The sweeping, romantic score of this haunting and powerful chamber opera is intimate, raw, erotic and dark, exploring universal yet often unspoken truths. The show runs through September 27 in The Henry Clay Theatre. Tickets are $20 in advance or $22 at the door.

pets of the week Casanova is a lovely 9-month-old brown and black Tabby cat. He was rescued from the streets and kept for a time by a kind owner who realized he needed a new forever home. According to his former owner, Casanova has played with cats and with children. He still has enough kitten in him to love to play, but he also likes to snuggle and spend time with his person. Like his namesake, he may sweep you off your feet. Casanova is neutered, micro-chipped and up-to-date on his vaccinations. Visit him at the Kentucky Humane Society’s Main Campus, 241 Steedly Drive. 2-year-old Rudy is a Jack Russell Terrier mix with a playful personality. Rudy has one leg that turns out to the side; however, this does not stop Rudy from being on the go and wanting to play. Rudy’s absolute favorite thing to do is play with squeaky toys. He’s even been known to borrow squeak toys from other pups under our care. Rudy is an active boy who will want an active family who loves to play with him and give him plenty of toys. Do you have a family who could keep up with Rudy? He’s neutered, micro-chipped and up-to-date on his vaccinations.
