Local events and things to do for families and kids around Louisville, Kentucky
My family and I had the opportunity to check out the new Zeggz off 42 and Lime Kiln in the Holiday Manor area. I like this restaurant for several reasons. First, you order your food at the register and then pick an area to sit with your number displayed. You have your choice of counter, table, booth, or couch area. […]

A new coffee shop opened in Valley Station recently and when I had a break from work I took the opportunity to check it out. Stomping Grounds Coffee Co. is located at 10019 Dixie Hwy in the same shopping center as Little Caeser’s, not far from Valley High School. When I first arrived I was the only one there and […]

Date nights for us usually consist of dinner and drinks out- and there is certainly no shortage of great places for dinner dates in Louisville! For my birthday though, we wanted to amp up our date night routine and do something a little more interactive and fun. I am an avid cook, partly because I love to do it and […]

Many people have heard of Vietnam Kitchen and I am one of the lucky few who live close enough to go whenever I want. We tend to get carry-out from them often but recently we decided to stop and dine in for dinner. We were not disappointed. Since we were actually staying to eat I decided to try their avocado […]

Steel City Pops recently opened its first Louisville location at 1021 Bardstown Road! My daughters love popsicles, so we decided to give it a try just a week after they opened. The workers were so friendly. They greeted us as we came in, told us all about their pops, and said how excited they were to be in Louisville. Steel […]

I love a fried fish sandwich. So I had to see for myself, and I concur. It was the best fish sandwich I have had here: flaky, fresh-tasting, and HUGE! I keep a […]

The Arctic Scoop is a really cool ice cream and yogurt store on Hurstbourne Parkway. What makes it so unique, is that they use liquid Nitrogen to cool the ice cream one order at a time. You choose a base (ice cream versus yogurt, etc), a flavor (theres a lot more than chocolate and vanilla!), and then an “add in” (fruits, […]

The stars aligned on our wedding anniversary and my husband and I were able to celebrate with a kid-free night out. We decided to try something new and headed out to Stout Burgers and Beers on Bardstown Road. We went on a Wednesday night and had a 15-20 minute wait for a table. They took our cell phone number and […]

My husband and I rarely get a date night anymore together, so we opt for lunch dates instead! A few months ago we tried a place that has been in Louisville for a while, but one we had not been to before. We had an early lunch at Cottage Inn on Eastern Parkway across from the famed ice cream place, Dairy […]

Johnny Rockets recently opened at the Outlet Shoppes of the Bluegrass in Simpsonville. My family and I were so excited about it that we went for lunch on opening day! The restaurant is part of the mall’s Phase 2 and opened along side new stores H&M, Abercrombie & Fitch, and Maurice’s. Johnny Rockets is located on the far side of […]

First impression– that familiar sub place we all know so well meets pizza! Pieology is an average-sized establishment, that is rather interesting looking with modern pub-style seating in the center, and lower tables surrounding the outside. One of the inner walls is completely covered in quotes, which helps to pass the time, however small amount that it is. We’ll get […]

Recently, my family and I went for dinner at the newly opened SuperChefs restaurant, located in St. Matthew’s. We had heard good things and wanted to give it a try. SuperChefs was still going through some growing pains (as any new restaurant does) and that day they were having some electrical problems. However, once we were seated and given our food all […]
