How A denied bank loan,' COVID-19, and Gallatin Pike: birthed bag lady's fry joint

Imagine this: Two brothers, a dream of opening a restaurant, and a bank's 'Nope.' Then COVID hits, and the world pauses. But to us, a 'no' simply meant "Next Opportunity." We turned over every couch cushion, emptied every piggy bank, and gathered every last dollar to buy a food truck. Our start? On Gallatin Pike. Day 1 brought just 1 order. Day 2, we saw 2 orders. By Day 3, only 1 order again — each one courtesy of our mom and dad. Yet, Day 4 changed everything. Discover how we transformed a hesitant start into North Nashville's favorite fry joint on Buchanan Street in the Buchanan Arts District.
