At Nashville's Chicest Hotel, Fender Is Turning Guests Into Rock Stars

Of course, even rock stars and country singers need to eat. And for that, there's the very fun Mane & Rye Dinerant, the Hutton's version of an upscale diner (you know, if diners served craft cocktails and boozy milkshakes). 

You'll find all sorts of Southern comfort food faves, including an all-day breakfast selection of biscuits and gravy, chicken-fried steak and eggs, and short rib hash. But suppertime cannot be missed. I'm talking shrimp and grits, buttermilk catfish, and epic sandwiches like the fried chicken and, my favorite, the gooey-good turkey Reuben, topped with an apple-pear kraut and havarti cheese. No Nashville meal is complete without cornbread and hush puppies, and no "diner" dinner should be without loaded fries - lucky for us, they do all three (the gravy fries are piled high with a fried egg, cheese curds, and chunky whole grain mustard - yum).

Wash it all down with an over-the-top, Insta-worthy boozy milkshake while playing a few rounds on a pinball machine. There's the Fat Elvis (Tahitian Vanilla Bean Ice Cream, Peanut Butter, Banana, Jack Daniels, Fluff), the Vlad (Malted Vanilla Ice Cream, Stolichnaya Vodka, Kahlua Syrup, Malt Balls), or the Bad Hombre (Mexican Chocolate Ice Cream, Cazadores Tequila, Dulce de Leche). In-sane. But, to be fair, after all that hard work learning how to play guitar, working up quite the appetite is to be expected, so no shame if you order all three while you're here.
