I added another city to my list this past weekend — Music City!
The girls and I got a great deal on a flight, so we rented an adorable house in West Nashville and headed south. I absolutely loved the vibe– a great mix of country and hipster. I’m not a country music fan typically, but it’s so much fun to hear so many talented people performing all over town. When in Rome…
Having a car was clutch since it allowed us to check out more neighborhoods and spots. I ate my weight in BBQ (Edley’s in 12South had the best pulled pork of my life), fried chicken (Hattie B’s Hot Chicken — a perfect bird) and washed it down with cheap moonshine drinks (they’ll getcha). Also need to shout out Hermitage Cafe’s $5 patty melt, which is pretty much perfection!
Recommendations (besides those mentioned above and below in captions):
Pedal Tavern tour
Grand Ole Opry backstage tour
Tootsie’s Wild Orchid Lounge roofdeck on Broadway
Tin Roof on Demonbreun
I took well over 200 pics, but here are just a few:
The five of us at the Johnny Cash mural
I was obsessed with this mason jar chandelier at Bootleggers Inn on Broadway
East Nashville, by 5 points
Looking out from the stage at the Grand Ole Opry
I just returned from Nashville and also bit up Tootsies. I tried whiskey kitchen. Did you make it there?
No, I didn’t! How was it? I’m hoping to get back at some point, so recommendations welcomed!
