SONY DSC

I love pizza. Who doesn't? Joey's House of Pizza in Brentwood, TN is a really good one. The owners are an Italian family from Brooklyn, New York. It's a nice change of pizza flavor for me, since my pizza staples are usually the Mellow Mushroom and Matteo's. Since I live in Franklin, I never would have come across Joey's House of Pizza on my own if my neighbor hadn't suggested it. It's kind of tucked away in the Maryland Farms area of Brentwood in a strip mall.   … [Read more...]

Brentwood TN Waffle House: Good Food & Fun Times

I knew when it was being built that the Brentwood Waffle House was going to be a little different from the other local Waffle House restaurants. The building is typical "Brentwood" red brick and quite attractive. The customers are a lot less, um, colorful than other Waffle Houses that I frequented in the past.

But all in all, the Brentwood Waffle House really is a nice, family-friendly … [Read more...]
