Hi. I’m Michael. And I’m learning a little bit more about Kentucky. And today, I’m learning more about something I thought I already knew pretty well: Schnitzelburg’s World Championship Dainty Contest. You know how the first Saturday in May belongs to the Derby? Well, in Schnitzelburg, the last Monday in July belongs to the Dainty. The contest takes place every year at the corner of Goss and Hoertz avenues in Louisville’s Schnitzelburg neighborhood. That section of Hoertz is also known as George Hauck Way, named after the man most closely associated with the modern Dainty tradition. b2Ybp8CNki7 ZdUt8NQ13uO k9xMURR4D33 UwI8EDMqwBw J2B5yjx7IXM 2h7cYLsJWyB
