I will often hear or read about a restaurant and look it up
online. I check the location and the
menu and see if there are comments on Trip Advisor. If it all lines up I check to see what other
restaurants are in the same area. If the
stars align, then do a search for a rental cabin.
Now, some of you I’m sure will be visiting Tennessee at
some point. If you are into food like we
are, I found an article that details locations across the state that have
food festivals that might be right up your alley, or right up your taste buds!
I know, out-of-state folks think Tennessee is only known
for BBQ or Moon Pies, maybe so. But
there are other foods to be proud of.
Banana pudding is a southern favorite and I imagine for Sunday dinner
many folks end their meal with it made from an old family recipe. You can visit Centerville, TN October 7-8,
2017 for their 'National Banana Pudding Festival'.
Not a fan of banana pudding, maybe The 'Unicoi AppleFestival' is more up your alley. Stop in
and check out the apples October 6-7, 2017.
Remember, an apple a day keeps the doctor away! While enjoying this red delight you will be
entertained as music will also be provided at this annual festival in Unicoi, TN.
There is a festival in Charleston, TN called the
International 'Cowpea Festival and Cookoff'.
So, if you are a big fan of cowpeas you might want to head over to
Charleston on September 9, 2017.
According to what I read, cowpeas are black-eyed peas, but I will have
to take their word for it. I am a Yankee
transplant living in the south and I do eat my black-eyed peas on New Year’s
Day for luck, but I am not sure how they earned a festival!! Maybe this is the year I’ll check out hat
festival and find out for sure.
Here are some more food festivals in 2017 with the links to
