International Market Review - Belmont-Hillsboro - Nashville - The Infatuation

"The smoked beef and squash curry at International Market is better than a year’s worth of therapy (and we’re talking in-network, work-through-our-daddy-issues therapy). The five-spice braise mingling with Thai basil, coconut milk, and kaffir lime leaf is wholly cathartic, and lighter plates like Chinese broccoli dotted with tiny tofu croutons make for better support systems than some of our closest friends. Beyond that, it’s just a fun place to be—the staff is constantly bopping to Freddie Mercury while taking orders, and Belmont students excitedly pluck crab rangoon off the hotline for lunch. We also love their “Sunday Funday” dinner menu, which, sorry to disappoint the college kids, isn’t a rager so much as an excuse to crush a spicy fish sandwich or some donuts with condensed milk." - Ann Walczak
