If you have yet to jaunt into the quaint corner that is Little Hats Market in Germantown, consider this your sign.
My original visit was simply to check out the market. As I expected, they have an incredible selection of homemade fresh and dried pastas (Itlaian made as well as local from their sister company Alfresco Pasta), as well as a wide array of goods like whole honeycomb, infused balsamics, Italian cakes, cheeses, olives, and pizza dough. I made a list of things I was intrigued by to grab when I cooked a good Italian meal in the future.
But Little Hats, as my subsequent trip taught me, would become a much more regular stop than I anticipated. Why, you ask? Oh, because it’s the perfect place to grab a legit sandwich. (Especially on a Monday, when most of Nashville is closed.)
