My first restaurant review

I cannot tell you how happy I’m feeling because today me and my husband are going to be part of a cocktail event in the Watermark Restaurant specially organized for the Nashville Food Blogger community. This is the first time that I assist to this kind of event and I am thrilled to meet fellow bloggers and discuss the foodie culture in Nashville.

I have to accept that I expect a little posh pose because of the location, but I’m already preparing what to wear and which makeup to use. I’m even feeling nervous but hey! this is the blogger life, right? Hahaha…

The Watermark restaurant is located in one of the hippest areas in Nashville called The Gulch. I will be taking tons of pictures of the menu, the crowd and I hope my husband enjoys as much as I expect to enjoy.

Have you ever been to the Watermark restaurant in Nashville? Did you liked the quinoa with apple recipe shared on instagram? I am all ears to hear your suggestions and comments!

UPDATE

So we went to the special event that the Watermark Restaurant in Nashville at the Gulch organized for the Nashville Food Bloggers group. We arrived a little late because of the traffic due to the rain. At first I couldn’t locate the door, I think that probably they are going to install a sign or I didn’t saw it in my excitement to get in.

Upstairs there’s a restaurant area and the salon where we were delighted. A very welcoming waiter offered wine and my choice was Pacific Rim Sweet Riesling and my husband explained that it is a sweet white wine, which paired splendidly with the food they gave us.

Bloggers chatting

The atmosphere was very cool, all the bloggers were very open and we got a great chat with some of them. Apparently some write blogs in pairs, like husband and wife or fellow friends, others like me, write on their own (which makes it more difficult) but the point is that we shared experiences and hints of opportunities for improvement.

The food started at around 5:30 and Oh my gosh!! It was delicious!! I don’t know what did I liked the most because the chef did a great job. Every single bite was full of flavor and enjoyment. BLT biscuits, hot chicken sliders, bacon gougeres, wood-grilled beef tenderloin, house made ricotta on crostini with local honey and the beverages included a selection of pinot noir , white wine and even Pellegrino water.

Anyone hungry?

I talked to the husband of the lady that writes Spinach Tiger, and he was so open to share ideas and little secrets to improve visits and views. At the end I chatted with Bessie from the blog Bessie bakes and we shared our way of handling the food blog . She is a professional baker and showed me some great food pictures she publishes on instagram.

In conclusion, we enjoyed the company, the food, the atmosphere, the location, the kindness of the waiters, everything, everything, everything! Have you ever been to this restaurant? Are you planning to visit Nashville? I strongly recommend you visit the Watermark Restaurant and be delighted with their food and customer service. What do you like the most from their menu? I would love to hear your opinions in the comments.
