Tucked between Madison & Union Ave., in Memphis, between Crosstown & Victorian Village, lies the Marshall-Monroe District.
Just turn off Union at world famous Sun Studios (706 Union) on to Marshall Ave.
Elvis Presley got his start there, too.
Gat a quiche at C-Lou Patton Restaurant (648 Marshall).
From beef & sausage to crab & vegetable - Quiche!
Don't miss Sun Studio. Do the tour. See the very spot where Sam Phillips recorded Elvis' "That's Alright (Mama)". This is a sweet part of Memphis' musical history.
Another must-see are the Memphis made guitars at Saint Blues Guitars, at their shop at 645 Marshall.
I want a cigar box guitar for my birthday, hint.
Marshall Arts (639 Marshall) has production space for artists of widely varying disiplines, and hosts showings from some of Memphis' best artist types.
Then veer left onto Monroe for the classic Kudzu's experience (603 Monroe). I like the fried ravioli & a great ruben sandwhich. They also have live music most nights.
So there you have it, another in the long list of historic, yet vibrant districts in Memphis, Tennesse.
Keep having fun in Memphis.
