re: Chattanooga eats

Where to start.
Champy's is a beer and fried chicken joint that was started by a katrina transplant. Best fried chicken in town.

Taco Mamacita is a neat place with funky tacos

The Feed Co. has awesome food. (I may be a little biased. They cooked for a charity event for us and knocked it out of the park)

Hutton and Smith is the best brewery in town

Chattanooga whiskey has a cool little distillery you can tour and do a whiskey tasting

Aretha Frankensteins is a great breakfast spot but it's tiny tiny and the wait gets absurd
