🌯 Your new breakfast plans

Coffee and breakfast burritos — a match made right here in Music City, thanks to Resting Burrito Face and Merge Coffee Bar.
East Nashville regulars likely know Resting Burrito Face (formerly JMAS), which has been parked on Porter Road since 2024. Now there’s a second location on 4th Avenue South, in the same lot as Merge Coffee Bar.
I ordered the Greenwood burrito — made with beans, tots, cheddar, pico de gallo, and crema — and Merge’s honey cinnamon latte (aka the Bees Knees). Next time, I’ve got my eyes on the Imposter burrito made with BE Hive’s vegan chipotle chorizo.
If you’re hitting up the East Nashville location, Tabla Rasa Cafe is right next door for coffee and ice cream.
The Metro Sports Authority Board approved a $25 million greenway connector linking the East Bank to the John Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge. The new access point is expected to take 18 to 22 months to complete. (The Tennessean)
Coming Soon
Kane Brown’s joining the Nashville bar scene. The singer is partnering with Elia Group to open Kane Brown’s On Broadway this summer in the former Valentine space. Plans call for exposed brick and steel accents, a mezzanine overlooking the main stage, a third-floor lounge, and a rooftop, of course.
Eat
Black Dynasty Secret Ramen House plans to open a standalone location at 604 Gallatin Ave. After a stint inside Bearded Iris and now Mitchell Delicatessen, the forthcoming spot is expected to offer a small bar, expanded menu, and full service. (Nashville Business Journal)
Show
Megan Moroney will bring her “9 Cities. 9 Days.” album celebration to The Pinnacle this Sunday, Feb. 22, with limited $9 tickets available at 9 a.m. the day of the three-song performance. (Music Row)
Seasonal
Cheekwood officially reopens on Saturday, March 7, just in time for March gardening classes. Spots can fill up quickly, so if you’d like tips on spring vegetable gardening and more, head over to The Cheekwood Gardening School page.
Biz
E3 Chophouse in Hillsboro Village is “temporarily pausing operations,” according to a social media post that also referenced potential rebrand and re-concept plans. The three-story steakhouse is backed by the families of Adam LaRoche, Jason Aldean, and Luke Bryan, according to the website.
Show
Brad Paisley’s annual “Groceries with Dignity & Comedy Without” showcase returns to Zanies on Sunday, April 19. The previous events raised $500,000 dollars for The Store and featured special guests such as Nate Bargatze and Henry Cho, so you never know who will be there.

Shocking upsets, personal confessions, and cheating accusations. Any guesses what we’re talking about? This year’s 2026 Winter Olympics has been full of controversy, and the theatrics aren’t over yet.
The closing ceremony takes place this Sunday, Feb. 22. After that, if you’re going to miss the drama, here are a few on-stage productions we’ve got our eye on:
Nashville Ballet is bringing Tchaikovsky’s “Swan Lake” to the stage beginning Friday, Feb. 27.
A taste of Broadway is coming to Music City as “Suffs” takes over TPAC in early March, followed by “Back to the Future: The Musical” and “Some Like It Hot.”
Brush up on ABBA, because you’ll be humming along when “Mamma Mia!” opens at the Hendersonville Performing Arts Company next month.
