Until last week I’d never heard of Savoir Adore, the Brooklyn band playing Zanzabar next Tuesday night. I got an email from a PR person at their record label. Not only was the email really nice and gave me lots of information and audio tracks to check out but the author talked about all the [...]

Our New Love: The Swan Dive

22. February 2010

4 Comments

I’d heard about The Swan Dive for quite sometime of course but it’s just enough off my normal routes that I’d never gone to check it out. Then a couple weeks ago my friend Rob, who is a vegan, (Hi Rob!) ate there and raved about it. Then someone on Facebook mentioned going to The [...]

The subtitle for this post is Consuming Louisville meets Nord’s: A Love Story.
Good gracious I’ve lived a sheltered and deprived life seeing as how until oh so recently I’d never had an apple fritter from Nord’s. Nor had I had one of those buttercream filled and iced long johns.
Nord’s is an old school neighborhood [...]
