(ADV) What's cooking in Adair County today: Not Bobby Flay Sad to say, who's cooking in Adair County is not Bobby Flay. Despite Kay Burton's challenge to Food Network Chef Bobby Flay to a Pie Baking throwdown at Vester, the Interplanetary Pie Capitol of the Universe, there's no sign of the Iron Chef coming anywhere near. Reports from Columbia, and other points in vast Adair County reveal no sign of the supposedly fearless competitor. Could be, after the Castro brothers defeated him making Hot Browns, Bobby Flay is just gun shy of Kentucky. That's understandable. But the challenge remains. And we assure him that, other than the ignominious defeat he'll suffer in the throwdown, he'll be treated with the finest hospitality in America. Anyway, there's an unbelievable array of pies today at Vester. And Bob's Country Kitchen has meatloaf, potato casserole, peas, corn on the hot bar today. Because of the snow: Bob's is heavy on soups, with Chili, Vegetable, and Pinto Beans, served up with your choice of Saltines or the Cornbread of the Day. See TODAY'S MENU, then come up KY 206 to Vester or call ahead, (270) 384-6774 for expeditious service. 2008-02-13 10:26:34 | Comments | Printable version
