Journals / Kentucky / Metcalfe County, Kentucky

Metcalfe County is hands-down one of the most significant sources of award-winning country cooking in the state. The Lighthouse Restaurant in Sulphur Well is consistently named the best down-home restaurant in Kentucky. And as one of the only places that serves all-you-can-eat country ham we can see why! Metcalfe County is also home to the annual watermelon festival each August.
