crown&goose

Well he’s all you’d ever want,
He’s the kind they’d like to flaunt and take to dinner.

he is mister adam cole

and he accompanied us to the crown and goose.

Give your eyes a feast : The Crown & Goose. Knoxville’s first authentic London gastropub* located downtown in the Old City. Gorgeous inside, and some of the classiest food in town.

*asking yourself what a gastropub is? so did we. our great waitress explained it best: “gastropub comes from the french word ‘gastronomique,’ which means the study of food, and the british term for a public house or ‘pub’. a gastropub specializes in high quality food, several steps above the usual ‘pub grub.'” get it girl. she knows what she’s talkin’ bout.

gastropub sounds too foreign. what kind of food do they serve that isn’t typical pub grub? here ya go, folks. we all tried something different, so get ready for a watering mouth. this junk is gonna whet your appetite like no other.

mallory, here. entering a time of confession:

i am in love. with crown and goose. falling in the deep.

i want to eat here for every birthday of mine from now until forever. i want to sleep here. i want to play in the beer garden on every warm summer night to come. i want to date the crown and goose. i want to knit it a shawl so it can be pretty when we spend time together. i want to hold hands with crown and goose.

is that weird? maybe. is it one of my favorites thus far on our knoxville dining adventures? most definitely. so much so that i took mi madre back to c&g for more ganache. OH MY GA(NACHE). you have to go get some. you aren’t livin’ til you’ve had this little diddy:

thanks to mister cole for pickin' out the best dessert
