On one of our recent vacation days at Lake Barkley State Park in Kentucky we drove over to Cadiz to find a place to have lunch and see what else was there. Cadiz has decorated itself with pigs -you can see one in the photo of the restaurant exterior at the top of the post. They are signs of the annual Ham Fest held every October.
We ended up eating at Reva's Place right on the main street. I had the catfish plate:
I have trouble resisting fried catfish when I see it on a menu, and I enjoyed this. The slaw and beans were good, too, and the onion rings. You can't see much of my glass in the photo above, but I had iced tea. We enjoyed our meal. We had planned on walking around the town and shopping in the antique shops, but a big storm blew up while we were finishing our meal.
We headed back to the lodge, by which time the storm had passed. Of course. Isn't that always the way? But we couldn't complain. We had this view from our balcony after all:
Trip Advisor gives it 3 1/2 out of 5 stars.
Please join the weekly T Tuesday gathering at Bleubeard and Elizabeth's blog. You'll receive a warm welcome, a beverage of some kind, and art at many of the participating blogs.

I'm glad you are enjoying your vacation. It certainly looks like an ideal location by the lake.
ReplyDeleteThe food at the Cadiz restaurant looks yummy (although I am not a lover of deep fried stuff). The place name Cadiz made me smile as there is a city in Andalucia, on the south coast, called Cadiz.
Happy T-Day,

It was so funny, because we knew how the city in Spain is pronounced and here they pronounce it Kay deez, with equal emphasis on both syllables.
DeleteYour fish looks yummy, I would have chosen the fish, too, always my fave. Looks like a great place fr a vacation. Happy T Day, hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteIt was a fun trip, with a lot to do close by :)

ReplyDeleteThat food looks yummy. I love fried fish, and onions rings too. Well slaw and beans also so I guess that is my kind of meal. :) Gorgeous sunset too. looks like the day was made even better by that little rain storm. Hugs-Erika

YUM! Love a good catfish dinner!!!! TRying to talk the husband into going to KY and either staying on Kentucky Lake or Barley Lake. We have lots of vacation time we have to use up this year.
ReplyDeleteI hope you post pictures. There are a lot of pretty vacation spots in that area.
DeleteI have trouble resisting onion rings. My mouth is truly watering now.
ReplyDeleteI loved the pigs. I enlarged the next to last photo and saw them lined up on both sides of the street. I think it would be fun to have them in my town.
Thanks for sharing your drink (yes, I see the iced tea in both photos) and this quaint area with us for T this Tuesday. The lovely sunset just adds to the beauty of the party atmosphere today.
The pigs are amusing. I like catfish too. I especially like it when someone else cooks it. Lol!
ReplyDeleteYour meal looks yummy, I would have chosen fish as well. It looks a lovely town to visit and that sunset was beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHappy Tuesday
