Literally... a bucket :silly:<br /> If you're trying to choose between the two BBQ restaurants, Rendezvous is known for their dry rub/ribs, and Central is known for their pulled pork and nachos. I'm a Central girl, personally! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/memphis-recs#post-1853650 Mon, 08 Sep 2014 14:45:58 +0000 PurplePeony 1853650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Boheme: @MarieJ: thank you! Just touched down and I'm excited to see the city. </p> <p>@Boheme: that's a pretty amazing list, no way will I get to all those but I'm going to try to do as much as I can! I definitely want to get BBQ one night and Flight sounds awesome so I think I'll try to do that another night. Question, though -- what's a diver? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/memphis-recs#post-1852910 Mon, 08 Sep 2014 08:54:33 +0000 MarieJ 1852910@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I second everything @Boheme said and also want to add Majestic Grille. It is on Main street and they have delicious brunch/lunch/dinner! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/memphis-recs#post-1852846 Mon, 08 Sep 2014 08:19:48 +0000 Boheme 1852846@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'll go ahead and start you a list of walkable places I love -<br /> Soul food/fried chicken - Gus's Fried Chicken<br /> Traditional Memphis BBQ - Redendezvous or Central BBQ<br /> Thai/sushi - Bangkok Alley<br /> Fun gastropubs - Bardog, Local, and SOB -South of Beale<br /> Amazing wine/beer flight pairings - Flight<br /> Upscale/modern soul food - McEwens<br /> Upscale Creole - Itta Bena<br /> Classic Memphis (and a favorite of Elvis) - Arcade. Delicious breakfast here too.<br /> For Lunch - Johnny G's Creole Kitchen<br /> Coffee shop - Bluff City Coffee<br /> Italian - Spindini<br /> Pizza/Italian subs - Aldo's<br /> Desserts - Cheesecake Corner<br /> Best dive in Memphis - Earnestine &amp; Hazels. Try a Soul Burger :)</p> <p>And the quintessential thing to do in Memphis (after you eat BBQ of course) is to hit up Silky O'Sullivans for a diver. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/memphis-recs#post-1852816 Mon, 08 Sep 2014 08:07:23 +0000 Boheme 1852816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have SO much good food in Memphis. What kind of stuff do you like? You're staying within a block of my office, it sounds like ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/memphis-recs#post-1852758 Mon, 08 Sep 2014 07:02:29 +0000 PurplePeony 1852758@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hi Memphis bees! I'm coming on a business trip for a couple days and will be staying downtown, close to Beale Street. I've never been to Memphis before, so I'd love some recommendations on places to eat and things to do! I won't have a car, since I'm working very close to where the hotel is so my boss didn't want to get rental cars...so everything needs to be easily accessible. I'm coming in today and leaving early Thursday. Thanks! </p>
