Prince’s Hot Chicken South – Nashville, TN
No trip to Nashville, for me, is complete without some hot chicken. We had driven up for the day for the flea market and some roaming around and were getting ready to head back home, as dinner time approached. Prince’s Hot Chicken Shack is the pinnacle for me and we’ve been to the original (Ewing […]
Biscuit Love – Nashville, TN
On a Saturday trip to Nashville, we spent the morning at the flea market (one of the best in the South and worth the trip, IMO) and were looking for lunch. I had one particular place in mind and found a parking place right across the street. Only to find a line of 45-50 people […]
Leonard’s Pit Barbecue – Memphis, TN
As we headed back home from Little Rock, it looked like we would be driving through Memphis around lunch. This was completely unplanned. I looked at the list for options and, being Sunday, there were limited options. Coming through, on the south side, at lunch time (see their hours above) narrowed it down to one […]
Linda-Mar Drive In – Tulsa, OK
We weren’t leaving Louisiana in the broad daylight, but we were heading home from Winfield and looking for lunch (in all the wrong places?) when we got to Tulsa. (Note: That’s TWO thinly-veiled 80s country song references in one sentence!) This placed us at Linda-Mar Drive In (actually across the street in the grocery store […]
Knoth’s Bar-B-Que, Grand Rivers, KY
Heading from Nashville toward Paducah, we stopped at the Kentucky visitors center on I-24 and asked if there were any barbecue places in that part of the state serving mutton (this is a “thing” in the Owensboro area of Kentucky). The lady said that she thought that Knoth’s Bar-B-Que, over in Grand River, might and […]
H & H Restaurant – Macon, GA
Heading to the beach for Labor Day weekend, we left early enough in the day that lunch would be in Macon. That meant finally making it to H&H Restaurant. H& H is somewhat of a legend in Georgia restaurant and music circles, as one of the founders of the restaurant, “Mama Louise” Hudson, first fed […]
Bennie’s Red Barn – Saint Simons Island, GA
Ever since our kids were small, St. Simons Island has always been a special place for our family. As our family has grown (with the addition of two sons in law), we’ve made a Labor Day weekend tradition of renting a house and all going down for the long weekend. There are places that we […]
