"Top 5 Can't Miss While Nashville's reputation as a country music destination precedes itself, there's more to Tennessee's capital than the honky tonks on Broadway and the Grand Ole Opry. With a thriving visual arts scene (on display in the streets as well as museums), dreamy parks, and hip neighborhoods, Music City isn't just about the tunes. Plus, it's one of the Southeast's great food cities."
"This Southern food concept is straightforward: Pick a meat, three sides, and dig in. "[Meat-and-threes] used to be pretty much the only food in Nashville, before it became the food mecca it is today. There are so many good places that offer this, [but] I'm partial to Martin's Bar-B-Que Joint," says Meredith DiMenna, director of programming for Hutton Hotel. " Puckett's always impresses with their meat-and-three," recommends local chef Maneet Chauhan, owner of Chauhan Ale & Masala House. Another popular spot is Arnold's Country Kitchen."
Nashville pairs its global country music identity with a diverse cultural and culinary landscape. Visual arts appear in museums and on the streets while neighborhoods offer unique, hip atmospheres. Numerous parks and river vantage points support outdoor activities, including the John Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge and green spaces such as Centennial Park with its Parthenon replica, Bicentennial Capitol Mall State Park, Shelby Park, the Warner Parks, and Wasioto Park. Classic Southern dining thrives in meat-and-three restaurants like Martin's Bar-B-Que Joint, Puckett's, and Arnold's Country Kitchen, serving proteins such as spare ribs, pulled pork, and smoked chicken alongside sides like mac and cheese and baked beans.
