I'm not telling you to check out Newark, but it has some really good food in its Ironbound section. It has a lot of Portugese/Spanish food that I thought was the best you can find. It's right next to the Harrison Path Station, a pretty decent area.

The West Coast destroys the Midwest in terms of food.
I tend to agree. Moved to Chicago last year and have tried some top spots and local faves. The seafood is borderline awful here. Certain styles of Japanese don't even exist in Chicago. The Mexican food is pretty sketchy as someone else mentioned, but what do you expect? Chicago does some foods fantastic, but overall it cannot hold a candle to no cal.
I think it's fair to say that San Francisco and New Orleans are the most widely thought-of and lauded for their food scenes.
Any large metro will provide an abundance of options, too.
But, not having any first-hand knowledge of Louisville or being very near there, I've still heard and read from an increasing number of sources that their food scene is definitely burgeoning.
Any place, like Louisville, that strongly supports the arts ahd encourages diversity and creativity (Austin, Durham, Charlottesville) is likely to draw chefs. Afterall, food is one of the arts.

What a stupid, inaccurate post. I'm getting so tired of people creating fake accounts for the sole purpose of bashing Chicago.
L20 is considered to be among the top seafood restaurants in the world.
Despite Chicago not having a large Japanese population, you can get sushi, sashimi, tempura, hibachi, yakiniku, shabu shabu, soba, ramen, and whatever other kind of Japanese food you can think of.
How can the city with the 2nd largest Mexican population in the US possibly have sketchy Mexican food?
Portland, Oregon is a foodie paradise. Great Vietnamese, West Coast fusion, seafood, balkan food, Chinese, Ethiopian, and so on... And you cannot miss our food carts. Plus our weather is conducive to growing lots of local fruits and veggies most of the year so there is always a bounty of FRESH, local ingredients, and that can make a huge difference.
New Orleans. And, perhaps, all of South Louisiana. Great Cajun cuisine all over the place.
I have to agree with this selection. Louisiana has some of the best restaurants in the United States, IMO!
