After Joe Nolan’s startling and delightful Pikes Project on WPLN, which documents the lost and mostly unnoticed sights along Nashville’s main thoroughfares, we asked Nolan to retrace some of his steps pointing out his favorite eats, lots of which are unnoticed. First up: Nolensville Pike.
I’m a lot more interested in international flavors than I am in fine dining. Of course, they don’t have to be exclusive, but in Nashville they mostly are. If you’re looking for a mouthful of something that will make you forget you’re in Music City chances are you’ll find it on Nolensville Pike – the city’s most diverse corridor is packed with trucks and restaurants and markets packed with global flavors. This list is neither exhaustive nor definitive, but it’s a great place to start if you’re looking to do your own food tour of the pike.
