Proof on Main Restaurant Review

: Located in the chic 21c Museum Hotel, featuring paintings, sculpture, photographs and mixed media produced exclusively by artists in this century, Proof on Main, appropriately, serves contemporary culinary art. Chef Levon Wallace has taken charge of the kitchen and seems to be moving the contemporary Italian-Southern menu in the Southern direction. While a few of former toque Michael Paley’s creations remain on the menu, such as the chickpea and country ham fritters and Kentucky bison tartare, offerings like Kentucky sweet potato soup with apple pear and fig; confit leg of roasted Marksbury Farm chicken served with crisp artichokes and fingerling potatoes; braised Kentucky short rib with Weisenberger grits and tomato confit; and rye pasta carbonara using house-cured country bacon are available, too. Round out your meal with a selection of artisan cheeses or the evening's house-made gelati. A lively bar serving up innovative bourbon-based cocktails is located off the main dining room and is a stop on Louisville's Urban Bourbon Trail.
