I don't know that I have ever met a cheesecake I didn't like, but I KNOW I have had cheesecakes that are superior to others. While most bakers have that magic touch with any sweet treat, sometimes they choose one in particular that becomes their specialty.

I first heard about Big Nita's Cheesecakes in Louisville because a video popped up in my feed that just about made my mouth water. The algorithm either loves me or hates me because after that, all I saw were reels of some of the most good-lookin' sweets I've ever seen.

Like reviews of a viral sampler platter from popular influencers. If you have ever seen Luke's videos, you know he keeps it real with his opinions and ratings.

The Beautiful and Mysterious Monuments at Louisville's Cave Hill Cemetery

I don't know if you can call a cemetery a tourist attraction, but for my money, Louisville's Cave Hill Cemetery fits the bill. The monuments are extraordinary. Plus, a couple of icons are buried there.
