'All Aboard' as Oak Ridge museum hosts 25th gala
The Children’s Museum of Oak Ridge will host its 25th Annual Gala from 5:30 to 8 p.m. Friday, Nov. 20, in the museum's gym. "All Aboard the Silver Line: A 25th Anniversary Gala," is the theme, according to a museum news release. The event is expected to bring together supporters for an evening of entertainment, dining, and auctions benefiting the museum’s educational mission. This year’s train theme honors the museum’s long partnership with the Knoxville Area Model Railroaders , who first collaborated with the museum after receiving the donation of a large model train layout from Oak Ridge resident Milton Lloyd. The museum provided a permanent home for the layout, and the relationship grew into a signature exhibit and years of volunteer support. The museum’s first gala adopted a train theme to celebrate this new partnership, and proceeds supported the development of the new model railroad space. Returning to a train theme for the 25th Annual Gala recognizes the enduring connection between the museum and the railroaders and celebrates the World of Trains exhibit that continues to be a favorite among visitors. This year’s Gala will feature emcee Will Puckett, WVLT-TV anchor, and a presentation by Don Hunnicutt of the

Fresh off Michelin nod, Raven owners have 3 Knoxville restaurants planned | Exclusive
The trendy restaurant group behind a Maryville steakhouse recently recommended by Michelin has three Knoxville restaurants in the works, from Gay Street to Bearden Hill. Gemini Hospitality, whose Raven Steakhouse & Lounge was recognized alongside other regional restaurants in the Michelin Guide to the American South , plans to bring an upscale Italian steakhouse to downtown Knoxville to mirror the experience at the Maryville hot spot. The steakhouse, a partnership with Knoxville-based Dominion development group, has been coined Anthony's and is scheduled to open inside Lone Tree Pass on Gay Street next year. Raven sits in the heart of downtown Maryville and leans heavily into "indulgence," Gemini co-founder Jimmy Loup told Knox News. The hospitality group wasn't planning to add another fine dining restaurant to its resume until the developers behind Lone Tree Pass stopped in to dine at Raven. "They enjoyed it, called us, we met and then worked out a deal," Loup said. Lone Tree Pass, located on the 200 block of Gay Street, is a $30 million mixed-use development with condos, a coffee shop and brunch spot in the mix. Anthony's will open in the 6,000-square-foot street level space facing Gay Street. A few blocks south of

Maryville Alcoa Animal Rescue Center Dog of the Week: Cooper
Halloween is approaching! The night when skeletons, ghosties, werewolves, and witches rule. Where spooky things happen under a full moon. But what if you are scared of Halloween? What if the creeps really do creep you out? Then gentle giant Cooper is just the doggie for you!! Cooper is all meaty treats and no tricks. Unless there is a snack involved, then he’ll do any trick. Once, while hiding from trick-or-treaters, Cooper ran into a pack of werewolves who were up to Halloween mischief. They invited Cooper to run with them in the woods, and while Cooper liked all the running, he’d rather snuggle than scare. Scary movies are also a no-go for this sweet boy. Whenever one is on, he covers his eyes with his very furry paw and cuddles in close. And maybe sneaks a piece of candy or two, or three, or four. “I don’t want to be scared! I want to be loved,” Cooper said with a jump. Last Halloween, Cooper ran into a skeleton while he was out trying to find an anti-Halloween party, and he started running. He ran so far that he ended up at the Maryville Alcoa Animal Rescue Center, where he

5 Best Restaurants in Knoxville, Tennessee You Need to Try Before Everyone Else Finds Them
Knoxville, Tennessee — a city where the Tennessee River bends through the heart of downtown, where the Smokies rise blue on the horizon, and where every street hums with the laughter of students, the wisdom of old-timers, and the dreams of newcomers drawn by the promise of something soulful. Here, red-brick warehouses lean into the future, murals bloom on stucco, and the scent of barbecue and biscuits drifts through neighborhoods stitched together by memory and hope.

Michelin noticed Maryville. Its restaurant boom was years in the making | Exclusive
The Michelin Guide recently confirmed what many in Maryville have known for years: This small East Tennessee city, roughly 15 miles south of Knoxville, is a dining destination. The guide’s American South Awards recognized Raven Steakhouse and Lounge earlier this month, and The Restaurant at RT Lodge was recommended for the second year in a row . But Maryville's culinary rise shouldn’t come as a surprise. Restaurant owners, chefs and developers have been betting on the city for years, building on a foundation laid by longtime institutions while introducing Maryville's 32,000 residents to ambitious new concepts that once might have seemed more at home in a larger city. For restaurateur Jimmy Loup, the appeal was obvious a few years back as he walked through downtown Maryville in the dead of winter. It felt like snow could fall from the sky and decorate the town at any moment. It reminded him of a Hallmark movie. "Maryville is this idyllic town," Loup told Knox News. "When I was describing it to my wife, I was like, 'You gotta drive out here with me.'" Loup and his business partner, Jim Saunders, got their first taste of Maryville after moving from Texas to Knoxville
