A Meat-and-Three Classic
Bill Addison is still writing about Nashville for Eater. Here’s an article about three important restaurants in the city. One of them, Arnold’s Country Kitchen, we find particularly interesting. It’s one of our favorite places to enjoy a meat-and-three lunch in the Music City. As Mr. Addison says, “Plush yeast rolls will tempt, but cornmeal hoe cakes flipped fresh on the griddle evoke an even stronger sense of place.” Continue reading

Do you enjoy country-fried steak, meatloaf, and fried chicken? With turnip greens, squash casserole, or mac and cheese? How about sweet potato pie or blackberry cobbler for dessert?

Nashville Scene has selected Swett’s as the winner of their Best Soul Food award in the 2014 Best of Nashville survey. Continue reading
Nashville Hot Chicken Face-Off
Bill Addison, writing for Eater, does a taste comparison between two Nashville hot chicken giants: the possible inventor, Prince’s Hot Chicken and the 2012 newcomer, Hattie B’s. He says Prince’s is explosively hot but the sides aren’t so hot. Hattie B’s chicken heat is scaled back somewhat, and it’s also a lot drippier. The sides are worth eating, too. Which does he prefer? Read the story. Continue reading
Biscuit Love Plus
If all Ellen Margulies had touted in her Nashville Ledger story about where to take Nashville visitors was the Biscuit Love Truck, we’d have been grateful. How about fresh biscuits filled with Nashville hot chicken, local honey, and house-made pickles?! Or the Wash Park: Bear Creek Farm beef burger topped with pimento cheese and Benton’s bacon jam? Or the seasonal Nathaniel: a griddled biscuit topped with buttermilk cheese and local peaches and honey? Yes, get us to the Biscuit Love Truck! One other recommendation that stood out was Hattie B’s, a hot chicken purveyor that opened two years ago and has become hotter’n a whorehouse on nickel night. Continue reading
Nashville Hot Chicken Coming to NYC
Have you ever been to Nashville and sampled the explosively good hot chicken to be found in the Music City? If you’re anything like us, you’ve been left, like an addict, with a permanent yearning for the stuff. Well, New York City, your hot chicken connection will be coming to the rescue, hopefully in spring of next year. That’s when Carla Hall hopes to open her Nashville-themed restaurant. Besides the hot chicken, Carla wants to feature a selection from the vast roster of Southern sides that makes dining in the region so memorable. Ms. Hall began a Kickstarter campaign this week, if you’d like to get in on the action.
