Escaping the "Tri-Cities"

Earlier this week, Steph and I went to Hillsboro Village to eat dinner at Bosco's. We talked about how we used to go anywhere we wanted to when we first moved to Nashville. Now, we only stay in the "Tri-Cities". This is the area consisting of Donelson, Hermitage, and Mt. Juliet. We have decided to venture out and try new restaurants, shopping, and attractions in other parts of the city. Today, we ventured out to I Dream of Weenie.

I Dream of Weenie is an old VW van that has been converted into a Hotdog restaurant. It is located in East Nashville on Woodland St.


The food was very good. I got a chili-slaw dog and Steph got a Rebel Yell turkey dog with Chow-Chow on it. The only drawback was there is no place to eat at I Dream of Weenie. Metro Nashville considers them a mobile vendor and does not allow them to have tables. You can see our food as we sat down to eat in our car. We would go back there again to eat.
Look for more of my Escaping the Tri-Cities blog entries. We have recruited Will and Ashley, our friends who live in Mt. Juliet, to join our Escape Club. We hope to try a new restaurant each month. We have 2 rules. 1. It can not be in the Tri-Cities limits. 2. We should not have eaten there before. Until then...Good Eats!

I might want to join you on a couple of these escapades--the only drawback is sometime you get some awful food.

Keep doing the "escapes" and if you need help we will be there sometime to go with you.

We would love to have you guys join us on some fine dining escapades. We have 2 places in mind for the "Byrdstown Escape Club". A trip to the Loveless Cafe and Noshville Deli. Pick a weekend and come on down.
