This is the ‘Most Charming Small-Town Restaurant’ in Kentucky

One small-town Kentucky restaurant was recently given some high honors. Have you dined here before?

We all know that Kentucky has a lot of great restaurants. That's especially true when it comes to local restaurants. These restaurants have become staples in that area, and people must go whenever they are in town. They are restaurants that can even become bucket-list places to dine at. Whether it be comfort food, burgers, fried chicken, seafood, Italian, Mexican, steakhouses, or any other type of restaurant, there are certain places that stand out among the rest. You can't sleep on some small-town restaurants that we have in Kentucky. Many of those are hidden gem restaurants that people who are passing through would never know are there. My family and I make it a point to scope out local restaurants when we are traveling because we know that's where we are going to get some of the best food. That's especially true with small-town restaurants.
