As part of our incredible ten day, six state, five B+B road trip extraordinaire, we stopped in Paducah, Kentucky to indulge in some deliciousness. We found that and so much more at freight house. Kentucky Tourism proclaimed 2018 the "Year of Kentucky Food" and tapped chef Sara to be one of the state's chef ambassadors. First, an avocado salad with crab, arugula, pickled onion, and a green goddess style dressing. It was so perfect ripe and delicious. And that green popped out when it hit the table.

A very special thank you to Sara and everyone at freight house for allowing us to come in and feature your delicious cuisine. We can’t wait to come back to Paducah in July and enjoy your beautiful industrial atmosphere and one-of-a-kind food again. Our second entrée was a beautiful silver carp served with caramelized onion vichyssoise, brown butter roasted potatoes, and french onion croutons. We’ve never had silver carp, and 10/10 would eat it again. The caramelized onion vichyssoise added a beautiful layer of flavor. The brown butter roasted potatoes were so toasty, crispy and delicious.
The "Year of Kentucky Food"
Try chef Sara's signature Southern flavors with a modern twist in Paducah. Make a reservation at freight house for a proper introduction to the artistry, creative culture and agricultural traditions of our Creative City. Third, we got our first experience with a scotch egg.
Freight house served it with white beans and pepper jelly. The egg was yummy and the white beans were a nice base, but the real star was that pepper jelly! If they ever put that stuff in a jar, get yourself some. Second, our favorite, delicious buffalo cauliflower with shaved celery and pickled onions. Neither of us are cauliflower fan girls, but we’d eat this over and over again.
Sara actually participated in season 16 of Top Chef and landed herself in the top two! It’s no surprise when you see the finesse and creativity of her dishes. "It has been an honor to represent Paducah at some of the most prestigious cooking houses and across the world. I am so proud of my hometown, and it has been amazing sharing it with everyone." She operates the restaurant with the help of her mom, Bev, and her amazing staff.
