Nashville, Indiana -- May & June, 2009

My wife and I traveled to Nashville, Indiana where we stayed Saturday through Wednesday at a timeshare located there.  While we did not always eat out, this is a list of the places where we ate during the week and my impression of them.
 
5/30/09 (Sat)
LUNCH -- Dairy Queen -- 615 Annette Dr, Markle, IN
We pulled off the interstate here intending to eat at Vinatelli's Italian Cafe which was advertised on a sign up the road, but it was closed.  This is just an example of what often happens when you try to avoid chains whaile traveling cross-country on the interstate highway system.  There was also a Huddle House at this exit, but it too was closed.  The remaining choices were Dairy Queen and Subway, and we chose DQ.  It was filling. 
 
5/31/09 (Sun)
LUNCH -- Papa's Grill -- 3780 W Jonathan Moore Pike, Columbus, IN
A bar & grill in a shopping plaza just off Indiana Route 46 west of I-65.  I had a hamburger, which was pretty good but not great.
 
6/1/09 (Mon)
LUNCH -- Nashville House -- Main & Van Buren, Nashville, IN
The signature food here is the fried biscuits and apple butter - also, the coleslaw here is distinctive - diced fine, a lot of pepper, and dry.  I had an Indiana country ham and cheese sandwich, which was very good.
 
6/2/09 (Tue)
LUNCH -- Max & Erma's -- 12105 N Executive Dr, Edinburgh, IN
I had a half reuben, which was pretty good.  Part of a chain, so I will say no more.
 
6/3/09 (Wed)
LUNCH -- Hobnob Corner Restaurant -- 17 W Main St, Nashville, IN
I had a tenderloin sandwich, which was pretty good but not great.
DINNER -- Harvest Dining Room -- 8072 State Road 46 E, Nashville, IN
The Harvest Dining Room is in the Brown County Inn at the southern edge of Nashville.  I had a bison ribeye steak that was not bad at all.  I have seen buffalo burgers in several restaurants, but this is the first place where I have seen steak on the menu.
