Last updated: 11/29/25 One of the restaurants I never hear anyone mention in Nashville is Cock of the Walk. Despite the name, this restaurant is best known for its catfish, not its chicken. The catfish chain has two other locations–both not too far from Jackson, Mississippi. Since I grew up going to the Cock of…

Last updated: 11/29/25 Several weeks ago when I was looking for free things to do in Nashville, I came across the Tennessee Agricultural Museum.

Last updated: 11/4/25 My husband and I have lived in Nashville for several years now, but we haven’t even come close to doing everything yet. For 2023, I thought it would be fun to make a bucket list of 23 things to do in Nashville. I’ve focused on four major categories: events, outdoor activities, “classic”…
Last updated: 11/4/25 After several years of living in south Mississippi, we’re big fans of cajun and creole cuisine.

Last updated: 10/31/25 I’m always a fan of a good food hall, so it’s not surprising that I love getting lunch at the Market House at the Nashville Farmers’ Market. While the outdoor farm sheds at the market are only open on the weekends, you can visit the restaurants and shops at the Market House…
