The Keeneland Paddock Dinner Series

     I can't think of a better way to kick off summer than a dinner under the stars in the Keeneland Paddock!  Thanks to Keeneland's new Paddock Dinner Series, you too can experience one of these intimate, family-style dinners right smack dab in the center of beautiful Keeneland.  I'm not exaggerating when I say this is one of the best meals I have ever eaten in Lexington, and each course was better than the last.  The decor and ambiance was also just perfect with live music, delicious appetizers and drinks being passed, colorful tablesettings, and twinkle lights strung across the Paddock.

Better in the Bluegrass + The Kentucky State Parks Culinary Trail

    It wasn't an ordinary Wednesday afternoon for me, last week I got to take a day trip down to Lake Cumberland State Park for a lunch previewing the new Better in the Bluegrass Culinary Tourism Initiative with the Kentucky Department of Tourism and Kentucky State Parks.  The afternoon was warm and sunny, and the state park was the perfect setting with amazing views of Lake Cumberland from every angle!  The purpose of the event was to kick-off the new Kentucky State Parks Culinary Trail (more on how to participate in that below), taste some of the amazing signature dishes that had been thoughtfully planned and prepared to represent each region of Kentucky, and overall just promote the impressive and ever-evolving food scene we have here in Kentucky.
