No Nashville festivities would be complete without a trip to Monell’s for their annual Victorian Christmas Dinner. This historic family-style restaurant, located inside a 19th-century townhouse in Germantown, is all about honest, southern soul food. Come December, folk flock here to sit at the communal tables and feast on holiday favourites like stuffed jalapeños, Tennessee bread soup and beef with Béarnaise sauce.
