When we started KY Taste Buds three years ago, we knew that food would have to be a major component of our blog. Leigh and I love to try new restaurants and want to get out and explore all of the yummy places throughout Kentucky. We have had the privilege of enjoying so many awesome places, but really, the two of us can only cover so much ground. With this in mind, we decided to reach out to our fellow foodies and ask them to recommend their favorite restaurants, and boy, the response was overwhelming! We had a ton of great responses and we're making this list available to everyone so you can get out there, too, and taste all that the Bluegrass State has to offer.
