Nuevo Alba
208 E. Old Hickory Blvd.
Madison

If he hadn’t told us about Nuevo Alba we never would have found it. The joint is wedged in the building that houses A.R.G

Lee’s Cheese Steak and Pepperfire Spiced Chicken
East Nashville is hopping with new take out joints. Chris Chamberlain at the Scene has been doing some excellent food pioneering with help from the Bites Blog readers. I take their advice and hit the streets.
Let’s start with Lee’s Philly Cheese Steak. First impressions start with a big question mark. Lettuce and

From the slick, electric blue interior to the little trademark signs next to every mention of Blu Fig on the menu- it’s clear that this restaurant is the blu-print for bigger things. The business recipe for the incipient chain is cooked up by Chef and owner Khaled Fattah, who takes his

Jackalope Beer in Nashville
Nashville Restaurants and Food
Jackalope Brewing Company
It's about time for another craft brewer to set up shop in Nashville. We love Yazoo, but the more the merrier if the beer is really good. Bailey Spaulding and Robyn Virball have leased space in a former flooring showroom on 8th Avenue South (near the Mercy Lounge.) The ladies are preping the space to start brewing next year. Jackalope

Peter Chinn's Moves to Vandyland
Wow, talk about a fast change. We had a reader report today that Peter Chinn's Korean Barbecue Taco has closed on Clarksville Highway and moved to 400 21st Avenue South in the old Cheeseburger Charley's location. We just called and they confirm it. This happened so fast that they are already serving up those kimchi and kogi beef

It seems that Pad Thai is becoming as ubiquitous as fried chicken in these parts. Well, maybe not to that extreme, but there are plenty of Thai restaurants in Nashville. The real question these days is the quality of that Thai food. Lately, there have been signs that new proprietors are

The Great Beer and Bourbon Rush

Beer, Bourbon and Barbecue Festival
A couple of hundred folks lined up at 11:30am Saturday morning to hit the bottle....or in this case many bottles. We hit the line at the Beer, Bourbon and Barbecue festival and expected a big wait. This was clearly a longer line for the VIP tasting at noon than last year. We made the mistake of paying full price for tickets a few

Turnip Truck Opens in the Gulch
The Gulch just got a lot livelier thanks to the new Turnip Truck Urban Fare grocery store on 12th Avenue South. It was a busy opening day Saturday. The store is much bigger than the tiny East Nashville original. You’ll find a meat counter, cheese counter, a salad bar and a hot bar. They have a wide selection of bulk spices, grains
