‘Tis the season for feasting, and there’s no better place to take your extended family and out-of-town guests than to one of our city’s great locally-loved restaurants.
The Nashville Originals , Music City’s independent restaurant association, is made up of local restaurateurs who are committed to sustaining our city’s authentic dining culture and community. It’s Nashvillians supporting one another, with the common goal of helping local businesses exercise the individual creativity that we consider the hallmark of the independent restaurant in Nashville.
In the spirit of the holidays, many of the local restaurants that feed our city are extending an extra reason for foodies to celebrate this season with unique holiday offerings and an escape from Aunt What’s-Her-Face.
Whether it’s a Music City staple that’s been churning out some of Nashville’s best homemade holiday desserts for decades, a neighborhood favorite with a unique holiday tradition or a local pub opening their doors [gasp] on Christmas day, the Nashville Originals wants to encourage you to support local this holiday season.
