During the holiday season, our friends at the Riverpark Center turned the old Bluegrass Museum/Ghostlight Lounge space on Daviess St. into a fun pop-up bar called Peppermint's Lodge. It looked like Christmas threw up in there! In the best way, of course.

I had some serious FOMO seeing folks' pictures on social media having the best time. That's why I'm SO excited to see CUPID is taking over for the month of February. All things pink and red, hearts, lace, feathers, sparkles etc will transform the space into a Valentine's themed pop-up bar called "Crush."

You can stop in for a drink or two with your sweetheart or get your besties together for a Galentine's hang. Opening this weekend, Crush is also offering a super fun FONDUE for your table to share! You can either go for savory (beer cheese, pizza, buffalo chicken, Tex-Mex) or sweet (cheesecake, chocolate, strawberry, or caramel are the dip options).

My friend Katie gave me the scoop, "Fondue, Fon-duo, Fon-trio, or Fon-fours available during bar hours...so you pick the fondue or multiple fondues you want and dippers to go with." Here's their schedule so you can make your plans.

Where You Could Film an Owensboro Version of 'The Gilded Age'

There are structures in Owensboro that were built long ago enough that they could be part of a locally-themed version of The Gilded Age.
