Mark it down, because you’re not going to hear this sort of thing from a longtime East Sider all that often: SweetMilk is worth the trip to Donelson. Opened in the fall of last year by Pat Martin (Martin’s Bar-B-Que Joint and Hugh Baby’s) and Bill Darsinos (Greko Greek Street Food), the spacious and laid-back SweetMilk offers an outsized menu of breakfast favorites: country breakfast, steak and eggs, shrimp and grits, omelets, buttermilk pancakes, French toast, breakfast casserole and biscuits made the same way Martin’s grandmother Nonie Sue used to make them. SweetMilk has a sizable lunch menu too, but I haven’t gotten around to trying it just yet — I’d rather make my way through the breakfast menu over brunch with friends first.
