Pinewood Social


One of the highlights from my recent trip to Nashville was brunch at Pinewood Social. The place itself is unlike anywhere I've been before -- it has a restaurant, bar, coffee bar, lounge, and a bowling alley! Right when you walk in, there is a communal workspace and coffee bar (major Ace Hotel lobby vibes) and further in is the restaurant, bar, and bowling alley. For brunch, my friends and I each ordered something unique from the menu. Our favorites were the fried broccoli with almond garlic dipping sauce, pot roast hash, and the reuben benedict. Besides the great food, I was also very impressed by all of the typography and art. Both the menu and neon sign in the bowling alley were in beautiful script lettering and the cans that lined the walls had cute illustrations (i.e: tender feelings!). If you are ever in Nashville, I highly recommend checking out this place for its great food and overall ambiance.

A Weekend in Nashville


I recently came back from a short road trip to Nashville with a few friends. Chicago and DC are the usual road trip destinations, but we decided to venture down south to experience Nashville for the first time! We started out our visit in East Nashville, the burgeoning neighborhood past the Cumberland River across from downtown. East Nashville reminded me a lot of Williamsburg with its cute coffee shops, restaurants, and shopping. A few highlights include: coffee at Barista Parlor (which was once a car repair garage!), burgers at The Pharmacy, vinyl shopping at The Groove, and vintage shopping at Local Honey. We also spent time downtown, visiting the famous Music Row, which had more live music than I could have ever imagined. There were probably at least 20 bars/venues, each with their own live music performance -- I guess they don't call it Music City for nothing? In addition to the music scene, I was also impressed by the city's overall architecture and design, especially the convention center and the John Seigenthaler pedestrian bridge. It seems like I fall in love with each new city that I visit... Nashville, I will definitely be back!
