  1. WhT is the name of the restaurant??? Where is this location??? My family on Dad's side were spread out in Tennessee. From the East coast to Memphis. So many CHESS PIE'S TO TASTE!!! LOVE IT!!!❤😊

  2. Hello from middle Tennessee! Born and raised. You should try a burger joint in my hometown. Voted #1 burger EVERY year in my town.

  3. I am a 40 year old southern gal’ / lady, and I DO NOT LIKE cornbread either 😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤ it’s supposed to be in my genes 🤷‍♀️

  4. My mother was from Oklahoma and definitely a Southern cook (Her mother was from Arkansas and grandmother from Tennessee). When I was in my 20s I had a friend from London and another from Paris visit and they loved my Mom's down home cooking. Same for any American friend I ever invited over ( we lived in California and none of them had food like that before). I don't think Southerners fully realize just how good their home cooking is compared to other cuisines. They don't have to apologize to anyone.

  5. " It's not juicy juicy…I don't know how you say it. It melts in your mouth…" The word you're searching for is. A-W-E-S-O-M-E. So glad you finally found AWESOME.

  6. I'm so glad I found this Alessios reaction to everything was wonderful yum on everything and Jessie your beautiful as always love you guys my favorite was the fried bologna ❤

  7. Sorry, but the best cheeseburger in Middle TN is at Buster's Place 1615 NW Broad St, Murfreesboro, TN 37129. But I'll have to try the Half Way Market next time I'm in Franklin.

  8. Warum um Gottes Namen wenn das essen so erstklassig ist müssen sie es mit plastikbesteck essen……bei den Tellern bin ich mir nicht sicher ob die nicht auch ein weg werfprodukt sind.
    Unglaublich diese Amis……das Auge isst doch mit und so eine billige Präsentation.
    Ich kann nur den Kopf schütteln.
    Alessio zuhause in Italien isst du doch auch nicht aus Plastik…
    ..Bitte sag .al was dazu!!!!!!!!!

  9. Okok, if south can melt an italian heart i trust him.
    America, u may start to cook like this i think (an italian guy) and stop to bring us Mcdonald, starbucks and all the stuff.
    Thank you!

  10. It's the simplicity that's hitting. Just good food, made a good way, with no bell and whistles to woo anyone. I think that's why Alessio is enjoying this so much.

  11. You need to travel North about 2 hours to my home town of Owensboro KY. We are named the BarBQue Capitol of the Nation. We have 3 BarBQue restaurants you have to try, Moonlight, Old Hickory and Old South. They have all been around for years and years, owned by the same families and have their own recipes. It's a big rivalry in town which is the best and every one has their own opinion. 2 of the restaurants you can eat from a buffet and the other is order from the menu. Plus we have 2 things that are unique, BarBQue mutton and a soup called burgoo. I have traveled around the world with my husband when he was in the military and I have never seen these two things outside of Owensboro. My personal favorite is Old Hickory, they have the best meat, Moonlight the best buffet with home cooked sides like this along with the BarBQue. Come see us Ya'll!
