We open the show with a champagne celebration — for the addition of Fourth Street Live! as our fist official sponsor. The entertainment venue has an exciting lineup of Derby Week concerts you’ll want to hear about.
It’s our favorite time of the year and EatDrinkTalk is packed with plenty of entertaining information, starting with our special guest, Andre Wilson. When it comes to finding a knockout outfit for Derby, celebrities and locals alike turn to the city’s style master. Wilson’s clientele includes plenty of big names, many of whom have him on speed dial this week.
Wilson talks about how he got started, working in a clothing store at 15, and how this year he landed a prestigious assignment — designing those jackets worn by Derby Festival board members around town. Wilson’s are a definite improvement.
Rick and Carolyn have decided on the show’s pick in the big race — which of course is Audible. But there’s a world of things to do before Saturday afternoon. In restaurant news, the Tim Tam Tavern has reopened with a special twist – the six-decades old bar will be serving Danny Mac’s pizza. Carolyn is especially thrilled about the new Ehrler’s ice cream store opening downtown. And we can’t wait for the ribbon-cutting this week at Rabbit Hole in NuLu.
