thank you mattb and wes!!!! there is a location not far from the gorge that is really good. you can go thru the tunnel and then instead of doing the entire gorge at the fork...go straight (stay on hwy 77) instead of bearing right (hwy715) . this takes you to 460. go right on 460 past Wellington and turn left on hwy1693 to Korea. then on to Big Woods and hwy1274. this is on south end of Cave Run Lake. google map the area...lots of various loops to do on 1950, 705, 772 3345 and others. the Frenchburg, Morehead, West Liberty area can be quite entertaining. these are some skinny little roads with curves. i haven't been on some of these in 10 yrs or so. the condition is unknown but they were great when i road 'em. so your on your own....

glad you both remember...it was Hall's on the River. been there for a long time and has quite the reputation. not far from the Stanton site; it is located across the river from Boonesboro in Clark county. a number of routes will get ya there, just pm me if ya want more info.

When we had the rally in Richmond, we went to a restaurant down near the Kentucky River. They had lamb fries, and I ordered them . Yum!

[Susan]

We came across The Stave in / near Frankfort. They were very good. Meanwhile, reckon we'll have to check to see who has lamb fries.

MattA's word is good, he's put me one some twisted shit out there in KY, the kind where you look like you are trying to smell your ass while looking through the turn... the perfect kind of roads.

here are a few of the better roads to play on - - - hwy 587 (from just south of Beattyville to hwy 421)
hwy 89 (from McKee to Irvine)
hwy 213 (from Pitts- outskirts of Irvine to Stanton)
hwy 32 (from Newfoundland to Rodburn - outskirts of Morehead)
hwy 1247 / 801 (from Frenchburg to Farmers, new Cave Run Lake)
hwy 11 (from Booneville to hwy 421)
these are some The and I have enjoyed over the yrs, lots more when ya go ridin'...

[gonejonesin]

...probably not at these locations, (not much more than a crossroads) but the above mentioned restaurants do.

Those are some nice sounding places. Any chance of getting good pie in any of them? (Asking for a friend.)

[gonejonesin]

now that ya have a few places to "grab a bite"...here are a few settlements ya might ramble thru in your travels. Hazel Green, Wonnie, Licksburg, Vortex, Shoulderblade, Gunlock, Maxey Flats, Newfoundland, Ida May, Jinks, Wildie, Mummie...just to name a few places ya won't find much more than a general store. happy trails

[gonejonesin]

if you find yourself around the horse country (north side of lexington), paris has several good food stops and cynthiana as well. we had lunch a few years ago in cynthiana at Biancke's.

[gonejonesin]

owensboro; owensville is near me and a easily made miscall. but western ky and barbecue....oh yeah ! they do it well there.

[gonejonesin]

that is the one enterprise that can make it anywhere...mexican restaurant. Beattyville...not a lot of opportunity in those type towns.

[gonejonesin]

heck, had lunch so many different places, i cant recall your specific...sorry.

[Lee]

Is it Owensboro?
