A taste of Franklin: Taylor’s Restaurant bakes up tasty treats

FRANKLIN LIVING— Taylor’s Restaurant in Russellville is a local favorite for lunch and dinner. While everyone has a favorite home-cooked menu item, a special draw at Taylor’s is the variety of pies and cakes, made fresh daily by Dot Taylor. Delicious desserts can be purchased by the slice – or, ordered in advance, by whole cake or pie. Ambitious bakers can take on a delicious pie recipe in their own home kitchens – or just pick up one of Ms. Dot’s.
