5th and Taylor

A couple weeks ago for my birthday I ate at a fairly new Nashville restaurant in Germantown and it was amazing. I honestly think the food at 5th& Taylor is the best food I have eaten out in years; not even exaggerating.

Most of the food tasted like something my great-grandmother used to whip up in her kitchen – the biscuits still had a faint taste of baking powder atop of them. I love how new restaurants are constantly popping up in Nashville {especially the farm to table ones}, but it is not very often you walk into a restaurant with a trendy atmosphere and have the sense of eating food that taste as if it were prepared for an old-fashioned family dinner, and 5th & Taylor did just that.

Unfortunately I was so wrapped up in the dinning experience {I’m a bit of a foodie} I failed to take a picture of every dish, but here are a few of my favorite picks from the menu:

1. sausage-cheddar biscuits {they melt in your mouth}

2. Summer squash soup

3. Shrimp and Grits

4. Side of grilled squash

5. Raspberry Macaroon {a real raspberry is in the middle of the macaroon}
