Food lovers all over the world are in luck! While the coronavirus pandemic might be keeping people away from restaurants, several of Nashville’s most celebrated chefs are sharing the recipes to some of their popular dishes in a new, and free, online cookbook, Recipe Notes: A Taste of Music City. The book, assembled by Nashville Convention & Visitors Corp., includes recipes from Pinewood Social, Thai Esane, Bastion, Martin’s BBQ, Sinema and more.

“We wanted to give our friends and visitors a chance to create a little of Nashville at home,” said Deana Ivey, Chief Marketing Officer at the Nashville Convention & Visitors Corp. (via MSN). “As people continue to find themselves cooking at home more, inspiration for meal creation is sure to be at an all-time low, with the same recipes being cooked repeatedly.

“We hope people will prepare the recipes in their kitchens,” she continued, “enjoy a meal with loved ones, and as people start traveling, we hope the recipes inspire them to visit Nashville and enjoy the restaurants, attractions and museums found among these pages.”

The recipes in Recipe Notes: A Taste of Music City include Roasted Cauliflower with Truffled Pea Pesto, Red Bell Essence & Feta Cream from the chef of Etch, Drunken Noodles from Thai Esane, Honey Butter Chicken from Chef’s Market, Banana Cream Pie with Christie Cookie Crust from Hattie B’s, Bourbon Fruit Tea Punch from Tailor and more.

“During these challenging times, we know many are cooking at home more than usual,” the introduction reads. “We hope this small collection of Nashville recipes can bring a taste of Music City into your homes. Cook these dishes at home, and enjoy them with your loved ones. When it is safe to travel, we hope these recipes you created at home (and no doubt devoured!) inspire you to visit Nashville, stop by these restaurants, and enjoy the original creations. It is more important than ever to
patronize and support locally owned restaurants to help ensure they are in business for years to
come.”
