LOUISVILLE
610 Magnolia - Chef Edward Lee and Chef De Cuisine Gabe Sowder are the cream of the crop in Louisville. How do we know? They have been invited to the James Beard House in New York to cook twice, for starters. More recently Chef Ed Lee, with Gabe in tow, toppled Iron Chef Jose Garces after going head to head on Food Network's Iron Chef America. Ale' Cuisine!

Blind Pig - With a recent review by the New York Times it's safe to say it isn't just local foodies raving about this hog heaven. Aptly located in the Butchertown neighborhood, Chef Joe Frase and the rest of his pork purveyors attempt to give you a succulent taste tour of Pan-European hog dishes in the hippest of settings. Even the visually impaired porker could follow his nose right into the kitchen!

Mayan Cafe - His name is Chef Herberto Rosendo Ucan Ake, but you can just call him Bruce. Chef Ucan and his compadres at Mayan Cafe have been a staple on Downtown's Market Street since opening as the Mayan Gypsy in 1997. This is not Mexican food, this is Mayan food! The true heart of the savory taste of the Yucatan peninsula is freshness, and the Mayan Cafe has always been a proud supporter of the farm to table movement. Whether it's chilaquiles, seviche, or tortilla's made by hand, for Chef Ucan, it's always the best local ingredients.
