A great new breakfast and lunch spot in Nashville...
If you follow me on Twitter, you’ve seen me tweet incessantly over the past few days about a new restaurant called Coffee, Lunch. Now, it’s your turn, Tumblr.
Anyone who knows me is aware that I am one of the pickiest eaters around. I get my cheeseburgers plain, my sandwiches with just meat and cheese, and don’t eat things like salads and the like. That may all change with Coffee, Lunch.
That is the steak sandwich from Coffee, Lunch. I know everyone talks about Mitchell’s Deli in Nashville as having the best steak sandwich in town, but it pales in comparison to what Coffee, Lunch. has provided.
The sandwich is topped with a seasoned (with what, I don’t know) steak, gruyere cheese, horseradish, arugula, fried leeks, and a butternut squash puree spread. All of this is stacked on a freshly-baked cheddar hoagie. The only thing on this sandwich that I would have found myself eating in the past is the bread, steak and gruyere. Not the case here. I ate every bite of the sandwich and all if its mysterious (to me) toppings.
And it might have been one of the best things I’ve ever had.
Also, I’m not a coffee drinker, but the coffee at Coffee, Lunch. has begun turning me into a believer in the brew.
Not super hungry, but want a snack? They have amazing pastries that range from house-made cinnamon rolls to chocolate chip cookies to an unbelievable chocolate mousse parfait.
Seriously… Go. Eat. Here.
It’s located at 300a 10th Avenue S. in Nashville (attached to the cj Advertising building across the street from Cummins Station). They’re on Twitter and Facebook, so follow/like them there, too.
But most of all, stop by, meet Zack and Khalil (the founders), and enjoy whatever they recommend from the menu. You won’t be sorry.
I am in no way being paid for this post. This place is just that good, and I want to get the word out.
We Are Not Good People
Bloc Party
Been rocking out to this track today. Loving the Death from Above 1979 influence that appears to be there.
It’s also nice to see Bloc Party back.

“We speak of Yelping and checking in on 4Square as if these were activities, when they are simply the day-to-day cataloguing of our lives—or, even worse, a grimly detached version of modern life in which we aspire to be ourselves. Mediation presents itself as a friendly tool when in fact it creates distance between us and the ordinary.”

While I post incessantly on Twitter, a little on Facebook, take too many boring photos on Instagram, and share a bit about myself personally on Tumblr, this post from The Awl sums up perfectly why I don’t share a lot about my personal life online.
