Mexican Food – SOL (sun) Style

Having grown up in Texas I’ve long searched for the perfect enchilada here in the Nashville, Tennessee area. It’s a tough job, but someone’s gotta do it. My wife and I have been here since 1998 and have yet to find what we would say is the perfect Mexican food experience.

In all honesty, it’s really not fair to any establishment here. Even if the food were equal to or better than that which we grew up on it’s likely it wouldn’t be “as good” since it’s not being served/consumed in the Lone Star State.

What’s all this have to do with my food photography? I was pleased to experience the tastes of SOL Restaurant while on a recent shoot in historic downtown Franklin, Tennessee … where I now call home. Franklin, not SOL Restaurant.

Herein are a few shots from our day … and the benefits for being a food photographer.
