At 0619, it’s 70 in Louisville, KY. Steve Benson, a hotel manager, joined the boat last night, to “solve some issues.” At 0830, we boarded three busses to take the bulk of the passengers to Churchill Downs for a grand tour. For lunch, Lew started with a Southern Cornbread Salad with Buttermilk Ranch while I had Cajun Shrimp Stew with Long Grain Rice. With drinks being served, once again, in glasses, it would seem the dishwasher is back in service. For her entrée, Lew had Braised Beef Steak with cheddar cheese grits, peppers, onions, mushrooms, tomatoes over a tenderloin of beef. I had a Southern Turkey Club of roasted turkey, fried green tomatoes, and bacon, with roasted garlic mayonnaise. Cocktails were, again, at 1730 and dinner at 1830. We both started with the Tomato and Bleu Cheese Napoleon with Red Onion, Fresh Basil, Roasted Garlic and Vinaigrette. Lew moved on to the Creole Pasta Saute with shrimp, andouille sausage, penne pasta and grain mustard cream, while I had the Barbecued Roast Tenderloin of Pork with Thumbelina carrots, cauliflower bread pudding and bourbon sauce. Lew finished with the Maple Bourbon Banana Pudding Cake and I had the Chocolate Cherry Cake.
