It's the Saturday of Derby Weekend....ok, it's Derby Day. As we usually do, we try to get out of town on Derby Weekend, which involved a trip to Shaker Village and then lunch, which leads us to La Fonda. After a helluva hike at Shaker...Village I was ready for food and La Fonda was close enough to take care of that issue. La Fonda is located right on Main Street in downtown Harrodsburg and is very easy to find, with its burgundy (or is it maroon?) awning. Street parking was a breeze. We were seated immediately and our server (whose name I don't recall) greeted us and brought our drinks right away while we perused the ENORMOUS menu. The décor at La Fonda isn't overstated and it feels genuine to the atmosphere they're trying to create. Yes, it's colourful, but if you know anything about Mexican culture you know that it's VERY colourful. I opted for the spicy pork chili verde, since I have a weakness for chili verde. The "spicy" part of that comes from adding in some chorizo, which is 1) BRILLIANT and B) awesome. Not 10 minutes later our food arrived, hot and steamy. The spicy pork chili verde was OUT-FREAKING-STANDING. The addition of the chorizo gave it just the punch it needed. Our server was spot-on with refills and getting more napkins (chili verde can get kinda sloppy if you use the tortilla eating method). La Fonda is laid back and comfortable. Good food, reasonably priced, and great service. I might just have to make the trip from J-Town again soon.More
