Best COVID Collaboration

Lakeside Lounge

After a truly disastrous March, East Nashville had to scramble, and that meant pairing up. Attaboy needed a space to serve cocktails; Lakeside needed a to-go cocktail program; brilliance ensued. Not only could you get Lakeside’s gluttonous Smash Burger and waffle fries to go — add queso! — but you could also tack on a Negroni, a gimlet or a Spicy Canary tequila slushy, all of which came fully tricked out with peels, straw, cylindrical ice or paper umbrellas to fully take you there, wherever there was. The collaboration was just another example of East Nashville turning tragedy into triumph in the tastiest way possible. ASHLEY BRANTLEY
