A Zagat Guide for Memphis?

Memphis boasts a variety of fine-dining and specialty restaurants. Apparently that word has spread to Zagat, which for nearly 30 years has published dining guides to various locales, along with information on hotels, music, nightlife, shopping, and other amenities.

In 2008, Memphis will be among 20 cities under consideration for Zagat guides. Based on information Zagat’s survey collects, the guide would be published separately, or as a supplement to existing guides, or be available online. Other Southern cities being considered are Nashville, Charleston, Savannah, and Louisville.

A Cool Video Guide Site

TurnHere.com is a nifty little website that features short films about places around the world. If you’re curious about almost anyplace, from Cali, Colombia to Chico, Calfornia, there’s a film about it.

And yep, there’s one about Memphis. It’s basically all about Beale Street and Stax (featuring our own Tim Sampson), but it’s sorta cool, and probably as good an introduction to the city as any tourist would need.
