9 6 LOUISVILLE MAGAZINE 5.14 food drink www.givelocallouisville.org www.yewdellgardens.org Grind Gourmet Burger Truck (851-7333, louisvillegrind.com) Soon, Grind will have a brick-and-mortar restaurant (which, by the way, will be called Grind Burger Kitchen and located on Preston Highway) to back its excellent food truck, and the bacon Brie burger we so fercely covet on the daily will no longer be a moving target. Grind co- owner Liz Huot says the restaurant will be remodeled in stages through the late spring and summer. (And, yes, the food truck will keep grinding away after the restaurant opens). Our favorite recurring special at Grind: the vegetarian lobster roll, made with Lion's Mane mushrooms textured like the highfalutin crustacean. Follow @LouisvilleGrind on Twitter for food truck times and locations. North End Cafe (1722 Frankfort Ave., 896-8770; 2116 Bardstown Road, 690-4161, northendcafe. com) If he were on death row, Christopher Seckman, chef-owner of North End Cafe, would choose North End's migas (three eggs scrambled with blue corn tortilla chips, jalapeƱos, cheese, salsa and home fries) as his fnal meal. Seckman won't reveal the secret recipe for his incredibly thick and convincing vegetarian mushroom gravy. As it is nearly indistinguishable from sausage gravy, we are suspicious. Sorcery, we say. Sorcery! The Grape Leaf (2217 Frankfort Ave., 897-1774, grapeleafonline.com) If you can pinpoint the three days of perfect weather between the moist sludge of spring and the blistering heat of a Louisville summer, spend them at the Grape Leaf, sitting on the terrace at the best seat in the house: beside the fountain, beneath the twirling fans. Order the grape leaves flled with vegetables, rice and herbs. Mike Linnig's (9308 Cane Run Road, 937-9888, mikelinnigsrestaurant.com) Mike Linnig's draws its biggest crowds during the hotter months.
