Go for lunch and shake hands with Randy Rayburn. He is one of the handful of individuals who set the tone, blazed the trail and created the current Nashville restaurant "scene." Look around and you'll see business bigwigs, society matrons, Music Row execs (and maybe a star or two). The Lemon Artichoke soup, Midtown Caesar and Midtown Meatloaf are classics as are the Sunset Caesar and Voodoo Pasta from Rayburn's now closed Sunset Grill.

The Frist Center for the Visual Arts is housed in the former downtown post office, an architectural jewel on its own. Constructed in 1933-34, the building displays both classicism and Art Deco styles and was officially listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. Today, it is the city's finest home for visual arts -- although it has no permanent collection. Every six to eight weeks, it rotates new exhibitions, bringing in art from around the world. Great for kids, too.
