Food
There are so many amazing places to eat in Nashville. These are a few of my faves!
Edley’s has some of the BEST BBQ in town! I highly recommend their Hot Chicken Platter (hot chicken is a Nashville staple!) but all of their food is delicious.

I don’t even like pancakes and I LOVE pancake pantry! The great thing about this place is they let you mix and match the different pancakes they have. This is another place where you’ll have a wait at the door but get there early and it shouldn’t be too bad!
