One of my best friends lives in Nashville, so I'm fortunate to be able to visit now and then.
Not only do I love this town because it means I get to see one of my best friends, I love that there's life and energy and amazing food.
At the top of my to-visit list was Rolf and Daughters, which is featured on Zagat.
An absolute must“ for ”innovative“ New American cuisine, this upscale Germantown ”gem“ presents a ”heavenly“ array of shareable small plates, hearty entrees and ”incredible cocktails“ dispensed by a ”top-notch“ team; the ”industrial“ space in a restored factory building offers communal seating (as well as smaller tables) and a patio for ”people-watching“, but be sure to arrive ”really early" if you can’t snag a reservation.
We started with some sourdough and seaweed butter. SEAWEED BUTTER y'all - it kinda just tasted extra salty.
Then I had dry-aged beef tartare, lime leaf, peanut and mint. I'm not gonna lie - this looked like straight raw hamburger meat (which I used to steal from the pack when my mom was cooking) - but the peanut was crucial and gave it some crunch.
Bri ordered the sweet potato with golden raisin, chili and anchovy.
Then I had "Cecamariti," which was a handmade pasta made from sourdough - how cool is that. It came with cultured butter and pepper.
These were tapas-style, so not huge portions. That made me feel better about ordering dessert.
So I went with the pear with buttermilk ice cream, katafi and spice honey. Wow, this is one of the tastiest things I've had in recent memory.
Have you been here?
