Wallace Station on Old Frankfort Pike in Versailles sits in the heart of Kentucky’s Bluegrass Region, in a restored 1900s general store building surrounded by horse farms and the rolling limestone landscape that makes this part of Kentucky look exactly like what people imagine when they think of Kentucky. The restaurant is part of the Wallace family of restaurants that includes Windy Corner Market and others built around the same scratch-made, locally sourced approach. It appeared in Season 9, Episode 9 of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, “Farm to Table,” which aired June 28, 2010. Guy Fieri found a deli and sandwich operation building its entire menu from local Kentucky farms and producing results that stand up to anything in a major food city.

What to Eat
The Benedictine Cucumber Sandwich is the Kentucky classic — cream cheese blended with cucumber and onion on fresh bread, a Bluegrass tradition that Wallace Station does better than almost anyone. The Hot Browns, Kentucky’s iconic open-faced turkey sandwich with Mornay sauce and bacon, are the state’s comfort food served properly. The Country Ham Biscuits are the morning item that gets Kentucky ham’s salt-cured intensity on house-baked biscuits. The Soups, rotating daily, draw from whatever the local farms are producing. The Desserts — particularly the chess pie and bourbon ball brownie — are the Kentucky sweets worth saving room for. Find a Lexington or Versailles area hotel on Booking.com.
