Madison County KY - Kentucky Horse Farms - Richmond Kentucky - Homes For Sale

I grew up on a horse farm in Richmond KY so I can understand the dream of wanting to own a farm in Madison County, many people from out of state travel here to find homes for sale or Kentucky horse farms to experience all we have to offer in Central Kentucky.Madison County KY - Kentucky Horse Farms - Richmond Kentucky - Homes For Sale

The land in some areas in Madison County is gently rolling, which makes it ideal for homes with walkout basements.

The lands near the Kentucky River have valleys and most homes and subdivisions are built on the hilltops.

Many farms do have horses but most are for pleasure and not for the racetrack.

Still there are some nice Madison County farms for sale that have ideal situations to build new homes or have horses.

KOTO Japanese Bistro Richmond Centre Richmond KY

Lizette Fitzpatrick - Broker-Realtor® Kentucky Homes - Horse Farms : Real Estate Agent in Lexington, KY

KOTO Japanese Bistro Richmond Centre Richmond KY

At last...KOTO Japanese Bistro has arrived! All of us in Richmond KY have been driving by the building in the Richmond Centre for months with our mouths watering just waiting for the grand opening.

About the name:

The koto (琴 or 箏) is a traditional Japanese stringed musical instrument
derived from the Chinese guzheng. The koto is the national instrument of Japan.

I was honored to be one of the first guests to sample the food a day before the Grand Opening.

I headed over with a BFF(Dee) and was warmly welcomed by Charlie the General Manager and the staff including Tony the Bar Manager and Sasha. KOTO is owned by Mr. Dong, this is his second restaurant in KY. The first, Asian Royal is located in Georgetown KY.

KOTO Japanese Bistro Richmond Centre Richmond KY

The elegant decor is warm with lots of wood and tall back leather chairs. Attention to detail is evident everywhere. There is a large fountain at the front door and the bar is to the right.

One of the highlights and there are many would be that Richmond KY will finally have a first class sushi bar.

Equally amazing is the heated hibachi grill at the tables where food is prepared fresh.

The key ingredients are the meats, seafood, rice noodles and vegetables. The sauces are meant to enhance the flavor of foods, not over power them.

Joe at Koto Japanese Bistro Richmond KY by Lizette Fitzpatrick

Enjoy a dining experience where each dish is prepared to order on smokeless hibachi tables and presented with artistic flair, right before you!

Our chef Joe at KOTO Japanese Bistro was trained I think in New York City and was one of the best entertainers I have seen at hibachi grills and I have eaten at quite a few all over the USA. His real home is in Laguna beach.

Having fun at Koto Japanese Bistro Richmond KY by Lizette Fitzpatrick

It was a blast watching him expertly prepare our food and serve it up.

Joe wouldn't miss a beat even if we commented on his style or to each other. Amazing concentration!

I think he super-sized our meals because there was so much food I had plenty for lunch today. It was good heated up again too!

My next dining adventure at KOTO will have to be the sushi bar. I have really missed having one close by. I'll have to do another review once I sample sushi.

It's nice to have so many new and good restaurants now in the Richmond Centre. Business is booming in Richmond KY and not a moment too soon!

Jerzees Cocktail Lounge - Comedy Club Richmond KY

Jerzees Cocktail Lounge - Comedy Club Richmond KY

I had the pleasure of checking out the grand opening of a new cocktail lounge in Richmond KY called Jerzees. Not only is it a lounge, but the night I was invited there...there was a comedy club act also.

As far as I can remember, there has never been a comedy club in Richmond KY. It's about time! Awesome idea!

Richmond KY Jerzees Cocktail Lounge - Comedy Club

Back in the 60's this downtown building was an A&P store on 122 Main Street. It's located about a block west of the court house.

The layout and decor is perfect for a cocktail lounge. Justin Waggoner and Bryson Alford have put together the perfect combination of talent and creativity to launch Jerzees.

Jerzees is a cocktail lounge that is great for all types of patrons. There was a blend of all ages the night I was there for the comedy club debut.

Wednesday nights are country/ western night with live entertainment. Check out the pool tables too for a chance to practice your skills.

Richmond KY Jerzees Cocktail Lounge - Comedy Club

The next comedy club date will be Aug. 28th.

Buy tickets and reserve your table online.

Jerzees is closed on Sun - Tues.

OPEN: Wed -Sat 8PM - 1AM.

Check out Jerzees website.
