Flavortown

Flavortown in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee is the most unique places that I have ever seen or eaten at. It is like a mix of Disney and Vagas for families.

Flavortown was a concept of Guy Fieri’s. In the ads Guy says come and play with your food and he means it. Inside the restaurant you will find a bowling alley.

A large arcade area.

Either of these should entertain the kids and or the adults too. Speaking of the adults, Guy did not leave them out. The restaurant has a nice area where you can sit and watch sports on wide screen TV. Unlike sports bars Guy has created small areas for families or groups. Each with it’s own TV,

The adults also have a Tiki Bar to visit if they wish to relax and talk to other adults.

I almost forgot, Flavortown is a Restuarant. It has a wide selection of seatings.

A nice menu with a wide selection to choose from.

We went a little pass noon and were not really that hungry. I guess we mainly wanted to see Flavortown. We ordered the Trash Can Nachos. The nachos are a must if you go. The presentation is fun and the food was great.

If you are a fan of Food Network and of Guy Fieri, then you will have no problem seeing Flavortown as a creation of Guy’s.

J J’s Restaurant and Sports Bar in Abingdon Virgina is a really nice place to eat. Most of the time when we travel to Abingdon we eat at the Tavern or the Peppermill. Both of these places are great places to eat. However, on our last trip we were just passing through on our wat home from South Carolina.  We wanted to find a place with good food and faster service. After reading several reviews we decided to try J J’s. The Restaurant is located at 115 Charwood Drive in Abingdon Virgina.

Like most sports bars J J’s Restaurant has the walls all covered with sports memorabilia and TV’s.  The seating is high tops booths or bar. The people are nice and welcoming, and the food is great. My wife ordered the Pulled Pork Nachos.  Which had Bar B Q, Beans, Tomatoes, Jalapenos, Onions, Salsa and Sour Cream covering the Pork and Chips. I had to try them, and they were great.

I had the Quatar Pound Burger. It is a smaller version of their Best Burger.  It has lettuce, Tomatoes, Onions, and Cheese.  The Burger also comes with their house chips. You may find a burger as good as this one but not one any better than this. J J’s Restaurant really has this nailed down.

If you are Abingdon and like us looking for something different or faster, try J J’s Restaurant and Sports Bar.
