We arrived in Louisville yesterday and are having dinner tonight in Doc Crows on Whiskey Row. I don’t usually do restaurant reviews on this blog, but if you find yourself in Louisville you gotta check it out.
The southern slow smoked roasted chicken with bourbon honey is to die for. Also Fern’s Derby Pie, a chocolate walnut pie (a Louisville tradition) is outrageous.
Doc Crows is on Whiskey Row, that was home to some of Louisville’s most booming businesses. Revivalist and Chicago School-style buildings, many with cast-iron storefronts, were built between 1852 and 1905 on Main Street, which was the major trade center for whiskey dealers, blending houses, barrel warehouses and bottling plants. It is now a popular destination for whiskey named bars, restaurants and shops.
Doc Crows pays homage to the father of bourbon, Dr. James C. Crow, who paved the way for Kentucky bourbon to be born. By utilizing corn & local sweet limestone filtered water, Dr. Crow was able to establish a method of creating bourbon that took the nation by storm. It is now a product of Jim Beam Distilling.
Perspectives on the Road 
Good thing this came into my mailbox at 9:15 AM—I was able to beat back the temptation to rent a car and drive straight to Louisville
