Nashville, Franklin restaurant inspections find wastewater, moldy food

Nashville health inspectors suspended a restaurant’s permit in October after finding wastewater pooled throughout the kitchen. At other Davidson County establishments, inspectors found water dripping through black buildup onto ice, cooked chicken skewers hanging from a gas line and moldy strawberries in a walk-in cooler. Davidson County logged 1,591 food-service inspection records in October, including 1,069 routine inspections and 522 follow-ups. Inspectors awarded perfect scores during 331 inspections. But nine routine inspections, detailed below, scored 61 or below. Nashville Korean BBQ Hot Pot temporarily lost its permit after it continued operating after inspectors discovered a wastewater leak, according to the Oct. 14 inspection report. During an Oct. 20 reinspection, the restaurant's score was upgraded to 92. In Williamson County, inspectors conducted 213 food-service inspections, including 160 routine inspections and 53 follow-ups. Eighty-three inspections earned a perfect score. The county’s three lowest scores ranged from 74 to 77. Several other establishments improved substantially on follow-up. Sancho Panzaa Cantina went from 55 to 98, while The Draft Room at Kings Bowl in Franklin rose from 74 to 99 in a week. Follow-up scores below reflect the available October records.

This Small-Town Tennessee Pie Shop Serves Slices Worth Every Single Mile

A chocolate turtle pie took first place at the Tennessee State Fair four separate times. That same pie is still the best-seller at one small bakery on a historic town square. The menu goes far past that blue-ribbon slice. The shop offers more than 100 kinds of pie, from banana cream to a fruity creation called Tropical Storm. I can’t imagine reading that list without picking three favorites before lunch.

Emeraude Bakery outgrows its Mt. Juliet home. Where it's moving

A popular Mt. Juliet bakery that specializes in artisan sourdough bread and pastries will relocate to a bigger space in the city, chef, founder and owner Hunter Briley said. The Emeraude Bakery will leave its eatery at 9904 Lebanon Road near Golden Bear Gateway and go west into the heart of Mt. Juliet at 11330 Lebanon Road, said Briley. The new location will give The Emeraude Bakery just over 3,000 square feet of space in a multi-tenant building with Nutrition Nova and Resha's School of Dance. Nicoletto's Pasta Company also plans to open a new location there, near the intersection of North Mt. Juliet Road across from Starbucks. "We've officially outgrown the building," Briley said about the current 1,200-square-foot space that can have lines of customers waiting to get in, especially on a Saturday, along with limited parking and a difficult intersection to get in and out of." "We have maxed out on storage and output and the amount of people we can even fit in here. We've been presented with an opportunity and we've taken it." Briley opened The Emeraude Bakery storefront in late 2024, specializing in traditional sourdough bread that uses all natural ingredients with 48-hour fermentation to

Big Burgers And Sweet Treats Make This Smyrna, Tennessee Restaurant A Local Favorite

A five-patty smash burger shares a menu with lemon custard at one tiny roadside stand. That combo alone has me curious. It sounds like a dare and a dessert at the same time. The little spot sits right beside a set of train tracks. Kids can watch trains roll past while they eat. I can’t imagine a better side dish for a burger than a passing freight train.
