Nashville recs needed

Food:
The best neighborhood for food is Germantown. Check out City House, Rolf & Daughters and Butchertown Hall.
Some other good restaurants of all types for you to research and check out are Lockeland Table, Pharmacy Burger, Josephine, Chauchan Ale & Masala House, Silo, Monell's, Arnolds, Sky Blue Cafe, Two Ten Jack, Urban Grub, Rudie's.

Drinks:
City Winery, Patterson House, Marathon Village, 12 South Taproom, Bar Luca, Holland House, Merchants, Filling Station, Green House, numerous breweries.

Attractions:
The Ryman, Belle Meade Plantation (weak as frick compared to Louisiana plantations though), Country Music Hall of Fame, Music Row studio tours, Nashville Sounds game, Nashville Preds game (if they are still playing), Lake Radnor, Centennial Park & The Parthenon, 12 South and Sevier Park

Ryman, Country Music HoF + Studio B tour and the Johnny Cash museum are must dos. If you like the music, even just a little bit, see about getting tickets to the Opry. Opryland is about 20 minutes from downtown (depending on traffic), and while some of it is cheesy, it is still cool to actually be in the audience for one of the longest running radio shows in the country.

I never go to Nashville without stopping by Jack's for BBQ. I've heard very good things about Etch as well.
