Since I love to travel I thought I would start writing about my travels. I have been to Nashville during Fall twice, once in 2011 and then again the following year in 2012. I really enjoyed the city and hope to go back and see the Texans play with my husband this fall. Here are a few must do's in the country music capital of the world.
1. Nash Trash Tours. These women will have you crying, their skit is so hilarious. It is a tour but it's more about their routine and interaction with the people on the bus. You will get picked on so be ready.
Here is the link, you need to watch and see when you can make your reservation, they fill up fast.
2. A love a dark , swanky, speak easy type bar and this is the best! Amazing drinks and atmosphere, you can't beat this place. It's nothing like the bars on Broadway, check it out!
Here is the Yelp link
They have opened a restaurant above the bar called The Catbird Seat Restaurant. It has rave reviews and I can only imagine that it is a fantastic restaurant. It only seats twenty in a u shaped bar and the dinner is pre-pared while you watch. This kind of long dinner with wine pairings is my fav! I can't wait to check it out.
3. Broadway, County Music Row Ya'll
Of course I can't leave this off, this is what Nashville is all about. The music starts at breakfast and last late into the night, you will hear some amazing singers and some not so amazing singers (the breakfast time singers)! My favorite bar is Roberts Western Wear, if you are looking for a cheap meal grab a PBR and hot dog here!
4. Each time I have been I have stood on the street corner and watched this guy play the drums and sing about people walking by, he is amazing and so fun to watch.
5. East Nashville is an up and coming area sort, its a hip area and there is a great restaurant there. Mas Tacos Por Favor, its a great Mexican restaurant. The pozole is amazing.
6. The library, yes I know but its amazing! Check out the third floor it's beautiful! There's a restaurant with a pretty terrace on the first floor. It has great coffees, croissant's and macrons.
7. Last, I have seen Imogene + Willie in ton of magazines and blogs but didn't get to check them out personally. They make custom jeans, and seem like very hip people.
8. If you have time check out Franklin, Tennessee.
Main street is like a dream, the homes are beautiful, shopping is great and there are plenty of places to eat.
I wish I could recommend a great place to stay but I can't, sorry!
Now raise your glass and give me a holler and swaller!
