"The brick-and-mortar location of Brian Lea and Leina Horii’s pandemic-born pop-up has made quite the splash with its 25-seat cafe in East Nashville. Situated in Highland Yards, the space is only open for lunch Friday through Monday, but manages to pack a crowd that clambers for its milk bread sandwiches, chicken katsu, and rotating udon, soba, and ramen dishes. Many of the items are also vegan and gluten-free friendly. There are no reservations here, so keep that in mind if you’re in a time crunch. —JGJ" - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones, Ellen Fort
