Cafe Rakka for baba ganoush or chicken on the sajj [tenderloins in saffron, herbs, spices and yogurt].Â

Folk for pizzas and veggie-forward dishes.

Weger:
East Side Banh Mi. Gracieâs Big Salad with tofu [papaya, pickles, fried shallots, citrus-soy vinaigrette]; any of their veg specials; and always the gluten-free cookie!Â
Surti:
Deg Thaiâs new spot on Nolensville is incredible. I get tom yum or kra prao moo [stir fry with pork, holy basil, garlic, chilis, Thai-fried egg]. Their chili tray also has some of the best spicy condiments in town.

When my colleague Margaret Littman gave yâall the heads-up that a new deli was coming to East Nashville to take over the former Marche space, to say that the reaction was overwhelming would be an understatement. In fact, when I showed up last week for a quick preview lunch at Shepâs Delicatessen, I saw that Margaret had beaten me to the punch and was already enjoying her meal at a table in the bright, airy dining room of the deli. That should have been a sign that people couldnât wait to try out Shepâs menu of bagels, breakfast and fun takes on traditional deli fare â a fact that became apparent when I logged onto their website to prepare to write this First Bite.
