Epicurean Kentuckian: Brothers 2013-07-28 - Campbellsville, KY - Photo CM photo. And this is the back door: We got it on the word of a respected Columbia Minister, a media magnate, a Taylor County pastor, a banker, and a number of other leaders - including Larry Smith, whose dog encourages trips to Brothers so he can enjoy the leftovers - that the food at Brothers on Main Street is really good. It is. So's the decor, inside and out. There are sidewalk tables with a grand view of Main Street, which was gorgeous on Friday, July 26, 2013, when this photo was taken, of the back door at the cafe - that's how much attention Mayor Tony Young and downtown businesses are paying to details.

Old Coke Fountain at Manner's Restaurant in Jamestown, KY 2013-07-28 - Monument Square, Jamestown, KY - Photo by Larry Smith. This delightful restaurant on Monument Square in Jamestown, KY, is closed. But looking through the store front window I noticed the beautiful old Coca Cola soda fountain. This is a reminder of being a kid and ordering a Coke and it had a bursting taste that only the old soda fountains could produce. As a baby boomer I have a great appreciation for the past. - Larry Smith, FM 92.7 The WAVE radio Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
