Jade Palace Restaurant on Herr Lane in Louisville offers a traditional dim sum menu, served at a round table on a lazy Susan to make sharing easy (like they do at the Lighthouse in Sulfur Well). Some of the dishes pictured include soup dumplings, shrimp dumplings, broccoli, crispy tofu, turnip cakes, and Cantonese style beef chow mein.

Great Wooded South: A B-52 Surprise

Click here for all of this Great Wooded South series

By Billy Joe Fudge

Forest Gump's Momma always used to say, "life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get"! All I have to say is Ol' Forest's mother must have been a Forest Ranger.

A Kentucky Forest Ranger has quite a plethora of job duties. They consist of and are not limited to: fire prevention, fire suppression, fire patrol, forest management, tree sales, law enforcement, public relations, education, etc. and in my case, spotter.

The "box of chocolates" analogy would often rear its, "you never know what you're gonna get" head, in what seemed to be scenarios fit to be movie script material. B-52 encounters was one of those scenarios.

Happy Cow Cafe is mooving across the road

Owners Destiny and Erick Montoya announce that today, Sunday, July 13, 2025 is "moo-ving day" for Happy Cow Cafe.

After building their business and celebrating their fifth anniversary on the corner of Hwy 61 and West 80, they got notice that the property has been sold to Casey's (new owner of former Doc's Market on Campbellsville Road) and they had only a month to find a new location and move out.

That move is official at the close of business today. Happy Cow Cafe is relocating to 206 Dohoney Trace, Columbia, KY, next door to The Appliance Store in the center with Dr. McQueary's Ridge Chiropractic.
