Such an easy walk to this one-of-a-kind scratch-made restaurant! The menu is built from ingredients raised or made in Kentucky! A well made dish can be delicious, but a well made dish from ingredients, grown by your neighborhood farmer, is so much more delicious. A well made dish develops pride in your home and makes dining out at a place like Sassafras special. The local art in the dining room ties it all together. Kentucky is rife with supremely talented visual artists as well as musicians. They are included in the shenanigans as much as possible, too.
