Epicurean Kentuckian: Sticking close to roots - Meat & 2 2016-12-08 - Pattys Liberty Road General Store and Deli, 5097 Liberty Road, Columbia, KY - Photo by Patty Edwards (c). There seems to be a trend toward traditional fare in Adair County restaurants. Plate lunches - Meat & 2 + bread are taking center stage. The chef shared this photo of her latest back to the best of the past, with perhaps Adair County's favorite white meat, pork tenderloin, real mashed potatoes with brown gravy, old timey green beans, and a dinner roll. Jethro in heaven would be quite pleased. Transports a body back over half a century. - CM Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
