Catch me if you Can

Hope that you enjoyed the pictures of the food....  I guess that I should explain (all pictures were taken at Loveless Cafe from my iPhone).

KMM knows about my foodiness (not really a word but I will use it today) and asked me if there were any restaurants that I wanted to try in TN.  I couldn't think of any and after googling to see if any Top Chef contestants had a restaurant (the answer is NO- although there is speculation that the next round of contestants does have one from Nashville).  I told her she could pick all of the places.  There are 2 places that stick out in my mind so let's start with Loveless Cafe.  Heaven help you!  If you get a chance to go please stop and try their DELICIOUS biscuits~!  They were wonderful and the preserves (jelly) that served with them are all home made and sooo yummy!  I had fried catfish, fried green tomatoes and fried okra (obviously I wanted to have a heart attack that day)!  Everything was great!  KMM had fish, greens and mac-n-cheese.  The greens weren't the best...neither was the mac-n-cheese. 

The next place would be Monells.  Again, this place was wonderful.  KMM had mentioned Monells before and said that I would love it but I blew her off.  The restaurant was family style and was ridiculous.  They served : fried fish, ribs, fried chicken, mashed potatoes, corn pudding, rolls and cornbread, green beans, greens, white beans, cucumber salad, banana pudding and more.  The place is worth your time and money!  All you can eat for around $16.  Worth every penny!

I am surprised that I didn't come back as big as a house but I made it!  So there you go... 2 great southern style restaurants for you to try in Nashville!
