If it seems like Nashville is everywhere these days--that's because it
is. GQ recently declared it "Nowville," and it has become the music
hotspot for both country and rock. But as hot as the music scene is, the
food scene is even hotter.
In Nashville Eats, more than 100 mouthwatering recipes reveal why food
lovers are headed South for Nashville's hot chicken, buttermilk
biscuits, pulled pork sandwiches, cornmeal-crusted catfish, chowchow,
fried green tomatoes, and chess pie. Author Jennifer Justus whips up the
classics--such as pimento cheese and fried chicken--but also includes
dishes with a twist on traditional Southern fare--such as Curried Black
Chickpeas or Catfish Tacos. And alongside the recipes, Jennifer shares
her stories of Nashville--the people, music, history, and food that make
it so special.
