The Perfect Eating Day in Louisville, KY

Breakfast
Sip gunpowder tea with Skillet Pancakes with chai butter served on mismatched china at Hillbilly Tea (hillbillytea.com).

Lunch
Later, an artisanal ham, pear, Manchego cheese, and wildflower honey tartine on a crusty, flavorful baguette will explain how Blue Dog Bakery and Café (bluedogbakeryandcafe.com) raised the bar for the local bread scene.

Dinner
Savor a nip and a small plate of pork belly with cauliflower and pickled celery at Rye (ryeonmarket.com) before settling into the Ham Bar for a nibble of Newson’s country ham and a wood-fired butternut squash pizza at Garage Bar (garageonmarket.com).
