Good work. I found Nashville disappointing foodwise after Memphis (better in plenty of other ways), but I was less mobile.

Good work. I found Nashville disappointing foodwise after Memphis (better in plenty of other ways), but I was less mobile.

if you don't have a car/mobility, I don't think Nashville would be doable from a food perspective, since so much of interest is off of the various highways/pikeways in and out of the city center. I've only been to memphis twice and so haven't really thoroughly gone through it...they're just very different in feel/'flavor'--nashville has a much more entrenched touristy vibe, which is amplified by the relative poverty/blue-collarness that can be found like 5 minutes off of 'Broadway'

I think that's right. Many of the best BBQ spots in Memphis were not walkable from the town center, but all quite easy taxi rides. Nashville seemed much more spread out.

Just about to bump this thread up, and look what I found.  Aww.

So, I was going to say...any updates on eating in Nashville?  Back in the heyday of this thread, the general answer was don't.
 

I wondered if anyone had recent tips.
