Places to Try

I have not been spending very much time in the kitchen lately. Mainly because I have had professional development days for my job since Monday and they last just about all week. The sessions have been very informing and it has been great that they have all been with just fellow SLPs in the county.

As if it didn't before, it all seems so real now. Especially since I got to read/analyze 3 IEPs for kids that will be on my caseload!

Anyway, so instead of posting a recipe I decided to post two places to try if ever in the Louisville area.

The first is Cake Flour:



Cake Flour is also on Facebook. On their page they post their daily specials which always sound delicious. Pictured above is a cinnamon sugar roll, opera cake (with hazelnut buttercream), cinnamon roll, a quiche, and a savory scone.

Next up, Highland Morning:



The above is actually pictures of leftovers because the portions were so generous. My mom and I went here for breakfast on a Monday and it was packed.

I got the wake me up omelet with grits.

Nam Nam Cafe

Since moving back to Louisville I have been making a list of new restaurants I want to try and ones that have been open for a while that I never got around to trying. Last Thursday I decided to try and new place that I read about in a local magazine, Nam Nam Cafe.

It is located in Saint Matthews and is in a rather small building. When I got there it was still relatively early (5:45pm) and not crowded. I took advantage of the carry-out option and my food was ready in about 5 minutes.

I got the Vermicelli Bowl (Bun Thit Nuong) with Lemongrass tofu. They also offer chicken, pork, beef and shrimp. In addition to this I got a side of Imperial Roll as well.



The sauce it came with was Nuoc Mam (fish sauce) which was delicious. The food was delicious and with very generous portions.

Another thing I liked was that Nam Nam uses local products when they are available.
