Defeated...
We always make an effort try to eat interesting, local fare when we travel. Kentucky made this very hard to do. Looking for dinner on our second night in Bardstown, we finally lost the battle. We saw a Mexican place, but we had already learned the hard way that you don't go to random Mexican places in Kentucky. I won't go into the gory details - just trust me on this...
Not up for another hot brown, we didn't have many other options - Kentucky is national chain restaurant central. We eventually gave in, and ended up at A&W. And not just any A&W - this one was a joint A&W / Long John Silvers establishment. Complete with a disaffected teenage girl running the till.
I hate to say it, but the food tasted pretty good...
There are some good places to eat in Bardstown, however, they are a little hard to find. Kreso's is a small family owned Bosnian place on Main Street and they have the best burger in town. Rosemark Haven has great Italian food, but are hidden. You can find them on the internet and Kurtz has pretty good food with the sides served family buffet style. Also for a good steak, I would try BJ's.
