Now is a good time to visit Maine. Lobsters were recently as low as $3.99 a pound. Six to ten pounders were about $8 a pound.

Man, Columbus Day and peak New England foliage is coming up and then you have to go and remind me about the cheap lobster, too?

:-)

As to food in Kentucky, my rule of thumb anywhere in the country is to try to stick to the local specialties. Chinese in Kentucky? Perhaps it's there, and more than likely more than OK, but wouldn't be my choice.

So, local specialties in Kentucky?

I guess I'd stick with bourbon.

The only good restaurants in KY are in Midway IMO. Cafe la Belle and The Black Tulip. In Lex, Dudley's is about the only place worth a mention.

at keeneland last week we had roast beef on whole wheat that was pretty good. we got it from the consessions facing the paddock. the corned beef looked good too.

Sounds good to me Darren, but I'm quite happy with the pressed Cubans at Tampa Bay Downs, so what do I know?

I think you and I are out of our league discussing food with this bunch.

You can get a cheesy double beef burrito and two Volcano taco's for like $2.76 at Taco Bell right now.

That's all me.
