Edibles & Potables: Check out a fully regenerative restaurant in Mexico City

Baldío was co-founded by brothers Lucio and Pablo Usobiaga and chef Doug McMaster, best known for his groundbreaking zero-waste spot Silo London. “In my eyes, bins are coffins for things that have been badly designed,” says McMaster. “If there was a trophy for negligence, it would be bin-shaped.” In British English, a bin is a […]

“Off the Eaten Path”: Jeffersonville’s Town. A Neighborhood Pub is profiled

A personal testimonial from Roger (that’s me): These are wonderful people who make great food and cultivate an atmosphere more Cheers-like than most others who routinely claim the mantle. It boggles my mind that it’s been almost 25 years. I chose the cover photo from Town’s inventory at Facebook (from Christmas, 2023) because the group shot […]

Then CCC metaphorically hopped into bed with Falls City Brewing to open a branch of Parlour in place of FCB’s taproom at its brewery in Louisville. FCB is owned in […]

Flooded with memories, metro Louisville experiences a thunderous silence

As the Oasis front man Liam Gallagher is known to say, it has been “biblical” for local businesses thus far in 2025. There have been interruptions in January owing to snow and ice, multiple flooding events including the current all-timer, a subsequent first-ever-weather-related cancelation of Thunder Over Louisville, disruptive Doge blitzkriegs and gutting tariffs, and […]

New Albany name change: Petra Mediterranean, formerly Aladdin’s

To my knowledge, the newly dubbed Petra Mediterranean Restaurant (37 Bank St., part of the Underground Station retail plaza) is the only locally-owned, independent (bricks ‘n’ mortar) purveyor of Middle Eastern food in Southern Indiana.
