F IS FOR “FOODIE,” A PERSON WITH A PARTICULAR INTEREST IN FOOD. Someone who’s always up for trying new places and has a refined but adventurous palate. And this month at Urban Nashville Lifestyle, we’re all about feasting with foodies as we just scratch the surface of all the fine eats and drinks Urban Nashville has to offer. The dog days of summer brought us ice cream, refreshing salads and cocktails enjoyed by the pool as we celebrated the Fourth of July, vacations and abundant sunshine. But the autumnal days of October bring us chili cooking on the stove, seasonal fruits and veggies and pumpkin spice, well, pretty much everything, as we celebrate football season, some warm-weather relief and shorter days moving toward the end of the year. Whether you consider yourself a foodie, a gourmet, an epicure or just an average eater; whether you’re into nachos at a game, craft beer at your favorite brewery, a latte from your favorite café or just a pumpkin full of leftover Halloween candy, we hope this issue inspires you to check out the amazing food scene right here in Urban Nashville.

The free festival aptly set beside the Parthenon will feature a variety of dance and musical performances on different stages, food vendors offering authentic and exotic tastes from around the world, a marketplace, hands-on children’s activities and an area just for teens.

NEW ORLEANS 10

Urban Nashville Lifestyle | October 2018

ARTICLE LIA PICARD

IF MEMORIES OF YOUR LAST TRIP TO NEW ORLEANS ARE HAZY IMAGES OF BEADS AND NEON LIGHTS ON BOURBON STREET, IT’S TIME TO TAKE A FRESH LOOK AT THE BIG EASY. New Orleans is a world of its own where the South mingles with the Caribbean and lively music tickles your ears as you walk down the street. Beyond Bourbon Street—sometimes even just the next block over—there are pockets of neighborhoods, each with their own distinct personality and an endless amount of nooks and crannies to explore. The nearly 300-year-old city has a rich food history, but it’s ever-evolving, and there’s so much more to taste than gumbo and po’ boys.

TRAVEL DESTINATION

(CON TI N U ED)

Begin the day with doughnuts at District: Donuts. Sliders. Brew. on Magazine Street. You’ll be amazed by the over-the-top doughnut offerings, like cannoli and strawberry lemonade. Post up at the counter and order a latté while you’re at it. Afterward, peruse the funky boutiques on Magazine Street and ogle the charming villas along St. Charles Avenue. From there you can hop on the streetcar and head back to the French Quarter. Make sure you have exact change! There’s no credit card machine, and the driver can’t give you change. Tucked away in an industrial area, Old New Orleans Rum’s distillery is worth the 10-minute Uber ride. The distillery opened 20 years ago and is set in a 150-year-old cotton mill, a unique blend of old meets new. It’s small but mighty, offering three different rums and a bottled cocktail, each one hand-bottled at the distillery. After teasing your tongue with the sweet and smoky flavors found in their rum, it’s off to the Bywater for lunch. Take a post-lunch stroll around the Bywater. The neighborhood is in a state of revitalization and presents a visual feast of colorful houses and street art. It’s also home to Cresent Park, a 1.5-mile paved trail nestled along the Mississippi River that gives way to sweeping views of the city. In the city that never stops playing music, Frenchmen Street is only a mile away from the Bywater and is a jazz hub in the Faubourg Marigny neighborhood. Slide into the narrow Spotted Cat for a hurricane and some afternoon toe-tapping. Back in the French Quarter for dinner, you’ll find sophisticated dining tucked away on Bienville Street at GW Fins. Since 2001 chef Tenney Flynn has created some of the most beautiful seafood dishes using locally sourced fish, shellfish and bivalves whenever possible. How local? The swordfish they use is caught just two hours south of the city. Passionate about his craft, Tenney even catches some of the fish used at the restaurant himself on occasion. Start with the sizzling oysters, served piping hot and ready to burst in your mouth. Naturally, you have to order fish as your entrée, but it won’t matter which one you choose; all of the dishes are fresh and beautifully prepared. Insider tip: Order the apple pie at the beginning of your meal so that it’s ready by the time you’ve finished your entrée. You’ll forget all about how full you are when you sink your teeth through the cheddar crust and into the warm, spiced apple filling. When the sun goes down the twinkling lights in the French Quarter are hard to resist. Find your way to Kingfish where you can belly up to the bar and order a classic Vieux Carre. The bar is named after Huey Long and hearkens to its namesake’s era with vintage décor. After the day is done your belly may be full, but your appetite for New Orleans will rage on. Fortunately for you, the sun will rise again in the morning and a new day of exploring through the city’s food will begin.

Urban Nashville Lifestyle | October 2018

DEACON’S NEW SOUTH Deacon’s New South makes its home in Nashville’s oldest skyscraper, the 31-story L&C built in 1956. Step inside and you’ll find yourself in an elegant restaurant and lounge inspired by the Prohibition era’s more sophisticated speakeasies. It’s an upscale yet casual dining experience centered around in-house charcuterie program, dry-aged steaks, locally sourced produce, Deacon's New South

vintage cocktails and sommelier-selected vintages for a world-class wine selection. Chef Travis Sparks is in charge of the kitchen where he creates such dishes as diver scallops with a chowder of seasonal vegetables and roasted Alaskan halibut with fennel, charred onions, mussels and garden snap peas. The very popular short ribs along with winter vegetables cooked slowly over embers. October also marks the unveiling of Deacon’s fall and winter menu and the return to service of Deacon’s wood fire grill, the ideal way to prepare the dry aged steaks for which Deacon’s is renowned. November marks Deacon’s one year anniversary and, with food this good, many more are sure to come. LIBRARY BAR “Food for thought” is not just an expression at the Library Bar in the downtown Sheraton. It’s part of the menu. Executive Sous Chef Albert Mallard and the management team created seven three-course, literary-themed dinners that rotate each week. The Charles Dickens, for example, features herb-roasted duck breast and chestnut bread pudding. The Ernest Hemingway centers around grilled swordfish and red pepper coulis. The main course of the Mark Twain brings cornmeal-dusted catfish, collard greens, and a blackberry gastrique. “It may seem like a very simple dish, but with the amazing ingredients and garnishes from our local purveyors, it is over-the-top for a traditional Southern dish,” Albert says. There are also dinners for William

“The farmer’s salad we came up with fea-

tures many local, seasonal products that come together for a perfect, Southernstyle salad. As for the last course, have our candied pecan bread pudding with whiskey caramel. Not only do our guests love it, but it also pairs great with the Featherbone Organic Bourbon that is used in the caramel,” he says. 623 Union St., Nashville, Tennessee SINEMA Set in the historic and beautifully remodeled Melrose Theater, Sinema effortlessly projects sophistication while consistently serving delectable dishes of innovative American fare. Chef Kyle Patterson’s inspired approach to cooking is the big hit showing here. Popular dishes at Sinema include the Agnolotti Pasta appetizer, the scallop entree, and the new branzino dish with sun-dried tomato arancini, tomato bacon jam, and caramelized squash and fennel. But do not leave Sinema without trying at least one dish of Kyle’s pasta. He makes it all by hand, and words literally cannot do his pasta justice; it is ineffably good. This fall, Kyle is in a sage mood, one of his favorite herbs. Sage plays well with the foods of fall, from butternut squash to cranberries and game, and Kyle expects it to be a heavy hitter in his “no-yell” kitchen where he and his crew keep calm in the storm of their nightly success. 2600 Eighth Ave. S #102, Nashville, Tennessee, 615.942.7746, SinemaNashville.com 20

DEL FRISCO’S Del Frisco’s plates consistently superior, chef-inspired American fare. The menu features elevated American classics like cheesesteak eggrolls and artichoke beignets, food perfect for sharing. Executive Chef Ryan Charabowski and his team ensure that all ingredients are fresh and sourced locally whenever possible, and the wine program is among the best in town, Nashville included, with an award-winning list that features more than 100 bottles and in-house sommeliers that can help guests Del Frisco's

pair vintages with their meals. Throughout the month of October, Del Frisco’s has a seasonal, prix-fixe menu featuring four dishes such as fillet duo topped with crab meat and gorgonzola butter and a bone-in pork chop with a cider glaze. “Also this fall, I am really looking forward to cooking some seasonal additions such as the roasted baby beets with hand-whipped goat cheese. I’m also very excited to partner with one of the Grille’s great vendors to switch to a new Buffalo chicken wing that doesn’t have the saucy mess.” Along with the outstanding food, Del Frisco’s is also known for its outstanding service and warm family feel. And one of the reasons for that is that everybody on the Del Frisco’s team is well-fed before their shifts, whether that’s a great pancake breakfast

Starting in the 1990s, years before others would look at downtown and think “Hey, yeah,” Tom was on it, acquiring properties and building his catering and restaurant empire. Today he employs some 500 very cool people (that’s just how he rolls) and constitutes the cutting edge of Nashville’s burgeoning culinary and hospitality sectors. But even a visionary’s gotta eat.
