2.5 My initial…read moreexperience at BBB was okay. Fine, even. But the after effect (if you will) left a sour taste in my mouth. To wit... I had some unexpected free time on a Monday in the middle of summer so I decided to take a trip to The Nations and see what was going on. I'd heard of BBB but I am so rarely out west that I chalked such tales up to 'that's nice; probably won't go.' I parked down the street and made my way to the building. As advertised, it's a butchery so don't expect much in the way of ambiance but you're not here for sconces and comfy seats. You're here for delicious meat. Lunch hours are brief and the regulars know the hustle so you should come prepared to know what you want and hop to it. I kept it simple: cheeseburger (no mayo), beef fat potatoes (again, no mayo) and a beer. The amount? $30. I bristled but chalked it up to the game that is new Nashville. Within an appropriate amount of time my order was ready. I donned my sunglasses and hit the patio to dig in. As I said above, the food was fine. The cheeseburger was pretty simple (so as to showcase the meat): patties, American cheese, mustard, and pickles). The sandwich looked nice (not especially large) and it tasted... fine. Not being a big red meat eater I fear the nuance of what I was tasting was a bit lost on me. Now, I have had meat that made me sit up and notice. This was not that... but I may not be the best judge. The potatoes were... fine. Fried in beef fat (before it was trendy), the execution is simple: kosher salt. Fine. I didn't think it was $30 fine but the days of Rotier's are long gone. I bussed my mess and drove home. It wasn't long before my lunch sat like a log in my belly. To be expected what with the combo of allergens I just ingested. My discomfort was of my own doing but I did wag my finger at myself for doing it to myself for the price point.* Fine. What wasn't fine was having my card overcharged. That sucked. *Yes, yes. Quality. Ingredients. Price of doing business. I know these things.

Still a good price though compared to Banh Mi's from other restaurants. Their selection of snacks, ramen, and frozen items have grown though, which is awesome. I feel like i find something new every time. The ambience hasn't changed, it's an Asian grocery store that happens to also make great Banh Mi's every day and other dishes on the weekend. It's quick, reliable, and easy to get to with parking.

Let me take my shoes off before i start (arabic habits) :…read more Apparently this place is TikTok famous. I wouldn't know, I remain a proud TikTok virgin. But I have dated enough white school teachers who "love ethnic food" to hear about this place roughly 86 times, so eventually I had to pull up and investigate. And of course i had to trust the gals the eat taco bell at 2 am post 12 shots. Let's start with the "chicken shawarma," which is ,with respect: about five miles away from an actual shawarma. This is not a shawarma. This is a chicken sandwich that identifies as shawarma. The chicken is okay but a little dry, the flavor is playing hide and seek, and by the time you get home the sandwich has the structural stability of wet cardboard. Also, the vegetables are cut like someone lost a bet and had to chop them blindfolded. Overall? Fine. Would I order it again? Probably not. But given Nashville's current shawarma economy, I understand why some folks are acting like they discovered Atlantis. Personally, I daydream about real shawarma the way people daydream about winning the lottery, or the way poets dream about lost love (in my case that one girl in 8th grade) I also tried the mixed plate (rice, lentil soup, and three meats: kabab, chicken, and beef tikka): Rice: solid. Honest work. Lentil soup: extremely shy. Needs seasoning, confidence, and maybe therapy. Also a bit oily. Chicken: dry enough to file paper work with. Beef tikka: actually pretty good, respect where respect is due. Kabab: could use more garlic, onion, and emotional support. Didn't see a health inspection score posted, and the place could definitely level up on the cleanliness side, nothing terrifying, just not sparkling either. The bald uncle behind the counter is a little dismissive and chaotic, but the man looks like he has personally witnessed several historical events, so I'm choosing compassion. They do carry a wide variety of Arabic groceries and halal raw meats (which I personally can't buy because I'm allergic, tragic and traumatic storyline), and honestly they should give discounts to school teachers because those are the main people marketing this place harder than the actual owners. Not terrible, not life changing. If this is your first shawarma, you'll be impressed. If you grew up eating shawarma, you'll drive home in silence thinking, "we as a society can do better." And also need to be more politically correct naming foods but alas.

For $100 I got a box with the following items: - 1 bottle of bloody Mary mix - 1 bottle of steak sauce - 1 medium size all-purpose seasoning container - 1 baked potato - 1 lb of fillets - 1 lb of ground beef If this is a butcher subscription service, isn't it fair to expect a reasonable quantity of beef, pork or poultry for the price? Instead out of 6 items, 4 where just fillers and 2 were actual meat. I do not recommend this service and will immediately cancel my subscription.
