Best Restaurants and Where to Eat Over 24 Hours in Chattanooga, Tennessee | Eater Atlanta

"I step off the Walnut Street pedestrian bridge and into Whitebird at the Edwin Hotel for modern takes on Appalachian cuisine: start with the cast iron beer cheese crab dip made with jumbo blue crab and buttermilk biscuits served with fresh-made jam, marmalade, and molasses honey butter, then try sweet pepper crudo tossed in apricot dressing topped with paddlefish caviar and fried coriander seeds, and follow with butter roasted freshwater trout garnished with Benton's bacon and white bean ragout — finish with white chocolate raspberry sponge cake topped with hazelnut crunch and whipped cream and stick to classic cocktails like the martini or a barrel-aged Old Fashioned." - Beth McKibben
