GO EAT<br />
DUDLEY’S ON SHORT<br />
259 W Short St • 859-252-1010<br />

Dudley’s is always buzzing with local celebs<br />
(it’s a favorite with Gov. Steve Beshear and First<br />
Lady Jane) and those who want to rub elbows<br />
with them. If you’re hungry, go for the herbcrusted<br />
rack of lamb with black olive-tomato<br />
confi t. If not, try a small plate like tuna sliders<br />
with cucumber and wasabi mayonnaise. $$<br />
GO PARTY<br />
SKY BAR<br />
269 W Main St, Ste 900 • 859-368-7900<br />
skybarlex.com<br />
You have to walk a red carpet to enter this hip<br />
new bar that has a terrifi c view of downtown,<br />
but don’t let it fool you: There’s no attitude<br />
here. Piano man Pauly Zarb has a repertoire<br />
that ranges from Sinatra to Coldplay, and<br />
the martini menu is extensive. Since this<br />
is Kentucky, opt for the Lexing-tini, which<br />
substitutes Maker’s Mark bourbon for vodka.<br />
FUN FACT!<br />
Man o’ War was the most famous Thoroughbred<br />
ever sired in Lexington. In his illustrious racing<br />
career, the only horse ever to beat him was a<br />
horse named—appropriately—Upset.<br />
