Description:
CHEROKEE TRIANGLE. Dark-hued walls hung with vibrant art go hand-in-hand with white linens and elegantly set tables at this eclectic restaurant. Its renowned chef and owner, Kathy Cary, prepares traditional Kentucky dishes, kicking them up with zesty Italian, Vietnamese, and French flavors. Introduce your palate to Kathy's sensibility with a local catfish spring roll or rabbit croquettes on grilled corn with oregano aioli. Then, immerse yourself in seared sea scallops and summer succotash, sauteed shrimp and smoked bacon, or duck two ways (seared breast and confit). A commitment to fresh, local ingredients is evident in the scrumptious cuisine. A daily lunchtime 3-course prix fixe menu for $15 is available. |

Description:
One thing is for sure – you won't go hungry at this local favorite. Mike Linnig's has been around since 1925, and it hasn't changed much since its opening, to the delight of longtime regulars. The restaurant is known for generous servings, whether it be of fish, shrimp, chicken, frog legs, oysters, turtle soup, or onion rings. Happily enough, you're also apt to see construction workers buttering their cornbread right alongside Brooks Brothers-clad businessmen. Enjoy outdoor dining when the weather permits. |
