"Perched on Highway 100 as it dips into country farmland, mere minutes from the glam of downtown Nashville, a weathered, vintage, neon sign lazily beckons to anyone craving down-home Southern cooking. It's the Loveless Cafe, open as a restaurant for more than 70 years. If you blink, you might miss the simple, roadside farmhouse - but don't. It's one of the most beloved eateries in Nashville, taking the Tennessee slot in our Tasting Table round trip of the best hole-in-the-wall restaurants in every state."
"Rocking chairs beckon from the front porch, while creaking screen doors usher guests into the warmth of a yesteryear Southern kitchen and cozy dining room. Eagerly scooting chair to table, they watch as piled-high plates arrive, laden with crispy fried chicken, hot-off-the-pit barbecue, and country ham with pooling rivers of Southern red-eye gravy, made the Loveless way with country ham, black coffee, and brown sugar."
