Epicurean Kentuckian: Mediterranean Salad, in Columbia, KY 2012-09-01 - 212 Public Square, Columbia, KY - Photo EK photo. Somehow Cafe on the Square takes signature dishes for other restaurants and makes them better in Columbia, KY than anywhere else. Such was the case with their Reuben sandwich - better than Reuben sandwich in Louisville, Indianapolis or New York - so many diners told us, a few saying it was better than any sandwich they'd ever tried. Now there's this Mediterranean salad. And we have it on the authority of two of Columbia's two food critics, who recommended it, that it's as good as their favorite Greek restaurants in Louisville - Kentucky's other Mediterranean-like city. Bruce and Patsy Wilson wouldn't say it was any better, but that it was as good as - and that should be good enough for most of us not so well traveled as they. It's also healthy, he noted; healthy enough to neutralize any of the better than New York, New York, New York Style Cheesecake they bake at the Cafe on the Square, and maybe capable of neutralizing the wickedly rich triple layer chocolate mousse cake, if one is following Bruce Wilson's healthy Neutralization diet. - Ed Waggener Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
