bbq
Germantown Commissary is the best bbq sandwich in Memphis, no questions asked.
Leonard's has the best dry ribs, as Rendezvous is like Corky's in that they're a tourist trap.
Yes, Memphis is a bit dumpy, but that is what gives it character. If you like good food, vibrant culture, friendly people, and no opportunity, then its a great place to live.
I miss it, proud to call it my hometown, but would never live there again. I guess you could say its a "love/hate relationship", which is a typical response among Southerners living outside the region.
Oh yeh, Memphis ATC is quite friendly too.
