Default Re: Things to do and see in Memphis?

Jim, If you could be a little more specific.

I've lived in Memphis since 1980 (except for 6 years in USAF) and should be able to answer most of your questions.

The popular food when visiting is BBQ. The 2 most popular places are Corky's and Rendevous. The Rendevous is downtown and Corky's is more east Memphis (there's actually 3 Corky's).

The downtown area is getting nicer every day. Beale Street is where a lot of people go to drink n dance. IMO it's your typical "place to go" that every city has. Unless you really enjoy blues that is. Beale St has some cool Blues places like B.B. kings.

Also within blocks there's a Jillians which has giant TV's, 10+ pool tables, bowling, and some video games.

Besised those places there's something like 100 other bar type places to go within 1/2 mile of Beale St.

There's some good golf courses, zoo, and a couple other places to see/do.

like I said if you have a specific question don't hesitate.
