#34
on our way through all 120 counties is FAYETTE COUNTY (county seat is
Lexington; named for French aristocrat & military officer Gilbert du
Motier, Marquis de La Fayette). Where do you eat & who do you
visit? Add in anything else you want to talk about Fayette County... #KY120Game — with Charlotte Flanary and 17 others.
- John Rogers, Stephen T. Shepard, Brenda Erickson and 6 others like this.
Holly Lynn Harris Okay so this depends on whether you have kids or not. If no kids...you eat at Village Idiot, swing by Bella Rose to buy a beautiful dress for the wife (or yourself...no judgment) and then cruise over to my buddy Joann Hollen's pool for cocktails and music. If you have kids...you hit up a Legends game and eat an Appalachia Proud burger or eat dinner at Andover Ramsey's because they have a toy box and you might get to choke down your dinner without a tantrum.
Charlotte Flanary Oh my! I have so many friends in Fayette that I would need a book to list them. And I love them all. Ramsey's (of course), Bella Notte, Hugh Jass Burgers, and the Parkette (I can remember eating here with my Mama years ago).
Travis M. Scott So many friends in the city, so many places to go. This is a hard one to do. Without repeating what Holly and Charlotte Flanary said, I'd add Pazzo's, Goodfella's, Billy's BBQ, Saul Good, Shamrock's, Joe Bologna's, the Tate's Creek Malones, Tolly Ho (only after midnight), and Meadowthorpe Cafe' to the list.
Matt Osborne Alfalfas, Bourbon n Toulouse, Sav's, Nick Ryan's, JDI and Palmers are a few placed I frequent with regularity that haven't been mentioned. Bru Burger was great the time I went.
Brandy Bailey So many people to see here! But as for food...go to Columbia's for the nighthawk special and Parkette for some fried chicken. Palmers is great too.
Cindy Starner Cannon I think you would definitely go to all the restaurants listed above and visit Geoff Geoffrey Dunn!
Trey Hieneman Too many to visit, but the best/most regrettable meal is a lg cheese sticks with all ranch from Mad Mushroom.
Marc Wilson I'm getting my politics on with a stogie on the patio at Malone's Hamburg and I'm going to follow the lead of Holly Lynn Harris on who to talk to.
Katie Mueller I'm going to Bella Rose. Then I am going to eat at Table Three TEN. Then I am systematically visiting Jennifer Royse, Brandy Bailey, Alayne White, Ashley House, Sean Cutshall, and a half dozen more folks before I retire at Keeneland with a Bloody Mary and some Burgoo.
Wes Wright Atomic Cafe, Alfalfa & Joe Bologna's. Christina & Julie Stephenson. Kyle Cottingham. My 97yo grandfather Johnny Eads.
Chris Pedigo So many memories. I have to recommend Charlie Brown's, Joe Bologna's, and Ramsey's. You also cannot go wrong with Cheddar Tots from Tolly-Ho.- Jeff Noble Kidding aside, I've recently (in part thanks to STS) returned to Charlie Brown's on a regular basis. I'd call any number of people, including Charlotte Lundergan, Stephen T. Shepard, Bud Man, or my cousin Greg Austin. I'd look for the Saratoga (it was at High and Euclid), Dixie Kreme Donuts (at Woodland and Euclid),and for Hall's on Main (it was at Main and Ashland) - favorites from my past now gone when I lived on Aylesford Place, Transy Park, E. Reynolds Road, Kirwan II, or Kirwan Tower. Finally, on the way out of town I'd stop at Tolly-Ho, even though it isn't where or what it used to be. Today's weather makes me feel like I should have never left Lexington.
Stephen T. Shepard Lexington's changed so much. I love Josie's for breakfast, there's an assortment of sushi restaurants, Mediterranean food, Korean, etc, etc.- Jeff Noble I forgot to mention Dr. James Patterson, the SGA faculty advisor, who is now in his late 80s and lives in Kirklevington. I'd call on him, see that he is ok, and probably enjoy some of his music and some of his bourbon.
- Wes Wright Forgot Rincon Mexicano on Euclid in Chevy Chase. Other favorite stops - Krispy Kreme, Ramseys, Missy's Pies, and Common Grounds. Also would catch up with Frank Simkonis, if he's ever in town.
