Nashvillians have a special appreciation and pride in both the low and high culture of their city-a mix of divey, soulful magic and innovative new South that make this city great. It's a variety that shows up in the music, for sure, but also in the food. So just as Nashville attracts creative musicians of all types (who just might be filling your wine glass at dinner), Music City also has been drawing creative cuisines, too. The hot chicken and meat-and-threes live on with a strong legacy, but so do farm-to-table restaurants, celebrating the city's agrarian roots in new ways, as well as innovative restaurants, heralding the new American South. With recipes for the home cook from over 50 of the city's most celebrated restaurants and showcasing over 200 full-color photos featuring mouth-watering dishes, famous chefs, and lots of local flavor, Nashville Chef's Table is the ultimate gift and keepsake cookbook for both tourists and locals alike.
