The 18 Best Restaurants in Louisville, Kentucky | Eater

"Enjoy live piano music and a romantic ambiance at this downtown Louisville landmark. The historic Brown Hotel is home to the world-famous hot brown, invented here in 1926. The dish consists of roasted turkey breast, toast points, Mornay sauce, and pecorino Romano cheese baked golden brown and finished with bacon and tomatoes. Executive chef Gary Palm oversees the hot browns and the rest of the menu, including desserts like the Chocolate Striptease, a flaming treat. If you drive: The parking garage entrance is on Third Street, which has a breezeway that connects directly to the restaurant." - Lennie Omalza
