The Spot
Brave Idiot serves fried chicken, burgers, and hot chicken out of East Nashville, working from an order-ahead system that keeps things moving. The fried chicken has built its own following, with regulars talking about it in the specific way people talk about food they keep coming back for.

Part of the draw is the small stuff: a running discount for showing a photo of your cat, and a friendliness from the owner and staff that shows up again and again in what people say about the place. It's spread mostly by word of mouth rather than marketing.

The Infatuation scored Brave Idiot a 9/10.
