The Bunganut Pig

It's July 3rd, Friday, and I'm sitting upstairs, eating lunch, at my all-time favorite restaurant/bar, the Bunganut Pig at Carter's Court in Franklin, Tennessee. It's truly a Franklin landmark. Before we bought and renovated the building we're in now, our law office was in Carter's Court, behind the Bunganut Pig. Mark, Chas and I had many "partner's meetings" downstairs, in the original pub, in the five years our office was here.

The current owner of the Bunganut Pig, Mark Goodson, is a friend of mine. He and his wife, Amy, have done a fantastic job since he's owned it, renovating the downstairs, opening a new, upstairs portion of the restaurant with pool tables, eliminating smoking and providing for outdoor seating. The transformation has been nothing short of amazing. I'm watching Andy Roddick vs. Andy Murray on one of the new flat screen, high definition televisions, just outside the art gallery Mark Goodson and Mark English are opening soon.
