Lynn's Paradise Cafe was a restaurant in the The Highlands neighborhood of Louisville, Kentucky. It had been open since 1991, originally in the Crescent Hill neighborhood, until it moved into a former grocery store in The Highlands. It had been featured on ''The Oprah Winfrey Show'' and ''Throwdown! with Bobby Flay'' on Food Network, where Lynn Winter, founder and chef, defeated Bobby Flay in a breakfast contest. It was known for its kitschy style in both decor and food. Both the exterior and interior were painted vividly and decorated eclectically. It was well known for its breakfast (fruit-sauced tropical French toast, Bourbon-ball French toast, and scrambled eggs with kielbasa whipped in are typical Lynn's fare), but also served lunch and dinner. Lynn's Paradise Cafe hosted many events throughout the year, and was especially busy for a New Year's Eve and New Year's Day pajama party. It sponsored the "Ugly Lamp Contest" at the Kentucky State Fair annually. It started when Winter was asked to judge the "Poultry Dressing Contest" at the Kentucky State Fair; she felt that she could come up with something new. The restaurant closed for good on January 12, 2013 in the midst of a controversy over new tipping policies at the restaurant, and accusations of labor law violations. ==Lynn's Paradise Cafe in the news== The restaurant has received extensive local and national media attention, including features on television programs such as The Oprah Winfrey Show "Best of", the Food Network's "Throwdown", the Discovery Channel's "Christopher Lowell Show", Travel channels all new "Chowdown Countdown" and CBS Evening News' "Travels with Harry".
