Driving by the old place known as Kaelin’s (birthplace of the cheeseburger), I noticed some people sitting out on the patio eating. I got excited thinking the rumors of renovations were true. Maybe they were true, but now the restaurant on the corner of Speed Ave. and Newburg Road is now known as “Mulligan’s Pub and Grill”. Stay tuned while we check it out.

My sister and I had our dinner at Cumberland Brews early on a Friday evening. We opted to sit inside and in the narrow downstairs area. After we were seated all of the tables were filled and it felt busy but never chaotic. [...]

This time of year everyone knows that Captain’s Quarters has the best out door eating area in the city, even better if you are a boater in need of the nosh. I think most people forget it can also be a nice place to have lunch during the week, if you have several hours to spare.

The only thing that moves fast on the Ohio are the boats.

You gotta love a place that has a picture of Genghis Khan over looking the buffet area explaining the “house rules”. Those rules are simple enough, Lunch is one trip to the grill and one trip to the salad bar, additional visits makes it dinner and that will cost you extra.

Editor’ Note: This is the first of hopefully many reviews by my friend, Pivo. She is the complete opposite of me, where I’m typically a “Meat-atarian”, Pivo is a vegetarian. Hopefully she will eat the foods that normally wouldn’t and give LouisvilleLunch.com a much needed veggie-friendly point of view. Welcome aboard, buddy…you can eat my vegetables…

My friend and I worked up our appetite by riding our bicycles to Simply Thai. We sat outdoors after a short wait for a table. Business was brisk and our server seemed a little “over it”, however our service was more than adequate.

We ordered Edamame from the sushi menu, two orders of Fresh Spring Rolls with tofu (available with tofu or chicken).  We shared an order of Pad Se-Jew with tofu and a Thai Iced Tea. [...]

I used to consider myself a Mexican food snob.  Having lived in Phoenix briefly in the late 90’s, I think I know Mexican food. Way back when, I grew up on Chi-Chi’s and the original Tumbleweed (before it became a chain and started to go wrong).  Before I started eating better and healthier, I would have Mexican food at least twice a week.  You name it, I ate it-at least once.

Welcome aboard!

I have to admit as my first review for LouisvilleLunch.com-I played it safe.  I have been to the Shiraz on Hurstbourne before, but this was a new adventure out to the location off English Station Road.  It is a little off the corporate beaten path, but people who work in the Blankenbaker cooridor are better off heading this way for lunch than Hurstbourne Parkway.
