Pied Piper for Lunch, Holland House for Dinner

We had a lovely time at the Pied Piper Eatery for lunch today. The veggie burger and Wisconsin burger were awesome as always. Those cheese fries are some of the best in town. We hadn't had the steakhouse mushrooms yet and they were a hearty side dish. The creamy/vinegary cole slaw was also excellent. The Pied Piper Eatery was doing brisk business for breakfast and lunch, which is heartening to

Munchy's and Corsair Triple Smoke

You can't beat a few days off. I've taken the opportunity to hit some places I have been meaning to try. It's been a good year for sandwiches in Nashville. From new grilled cheese joints to steak sandwich specialists there have been a number of bright spots on the scene.

Munchy's is a little take-out spot across the street from Fisk University. We watched with amusement as the sign went up (that

The West Charlotte Pike area is booming and for many of us it has become a new shopping destination thanks to Publix and Target. And nothing beats a Saturday afternoon post-shopping beer. With all the chain restaurants popping up, we’ve been hoping for some home grown bar variations. DJ’s Pub and Grub is well

Peter Chinn’s Update

Peter Chinn’s Korean Barbecue Taco Update

Yes, it’s taken us this long to get to the new Peter Chinn’s location near Vanderbilt on 21st Avenue South. I guess we have mixed feelings about the whole move. First off, the food continues to be quite good and that extends to the “new” burger shop menu items. The French fries appear to be hand cut and skins on. They’re

Village Pub Update, Help for Jamaicaway, Pizza on Charlotte and Crabs on Fourth

We had to get back to the Village Pub. The Riverside Village bar has been adding items to the simple menu and quite frankly we’ve always dined outdoors on the lively, wrap-around deck. On this chilly Saturday the dark and woody bar room was warm, cozy and the perfect spot for lunch. We

We love fall in the South and this one provided plenty of sunshine. That got us out in search of some new spots to eat. One of our Top 3 was an unexpected delight, another a long anticipated expansion and the third a further step in the right direction. Without any further ado we present our Top 3 picks for fall 2010.

Far East Nashville Veggie Update

Far East Nashville Veggie Update

What better antidote for the post-Thanksgiving blahs than a warm bowl of pho. We landed at Far East Nashville for lunch on Friday. You may remember that the original review was a Meat Eater only excursion. Now, the Vietnamese restaurant has an entire vegetarian section on the growing menu (still rather modest next to the other
