Where to order Thanksgiving pies in Nashville, from chess to chocolate

Some think Thanksgiving dinner would be incomplete without turkey. Others are really just eating toward the pie. Nashville has plenty of options for both traditionalists and more adventurous eaters. Local restaurants and bakeries have everything from classic pumpkin and pecan pies to miso chess and spiced ube pie. At City House in Germantown, pastry chef Rebekah Turshen has created a sweet potato chess meringue pie that draws on the baking traditions of her grandmothers in Tennessee and Brooklyn. That fits City House's ethos, where chef Tandy Wilson and team turn out a menu rooted in Southern tradition and local ingredients. "I feel like Tandy and I both cook sort of like reimagined grandma food," Turshen said. "I'm doing a lot of things I remember from both of my grandmothers and kind of making them my own a little bit too." Turshen might be best known for her signature Tennessee Waltz Ice Box Cake, with buttermilk pecan cake infused throughout with espresso. But the pastry chef, who said she is both on team pie and team cake, plans to center her holiday menu around her sweet potato chess meringue pie, which was previously featured in Oxford American magazine.

No. 11 Tennessee chasing improvements against Tennessee State

After dropping three spots in the AP Top 25 despite remaining unbeaten, No. 11 Tennessee will try to find its shooting touch when it plays host to high-scoring Tennessee State on Friday in Knoxville. In typical Rick Barnes fashion, the Tennessee coach did not mince words after a poor shooting night on Monday, even as his team completed a 70-47 victory over Radford. "We were atrocious, really, on offense," Barnes said. Tennessee (2-0) shot 46.2% from the floor but was just 1 of 8 from 3-point range in the second half and 23.5% from distance in the game. Shooting was expected to be a strength after the normally defensive-minded Barnes brought in players who were known for offensive prowess such as Juke Harris, a Wake Forest transfer who averaged 21.4 points last season. Harris had six points against Radford and was just 1 of 9 from the floor. He had just seven points on 2-of-5 shooting in his Volunteers debut against Wofford last week. "Offensively, the execution is not even close to what I know we're capable of," Barnes said. "And it looks like we've got too many guys that are too anxious to shoot the ball. I don't think
