I am moving soon (in 9 days to be exact), but I’ve been in Memphis long enough for it to be in my blood. I will never not feel like a Memphian.

 

This place is like no other, it doesn’t matter if you weren’t born here, what state you’re from, or where you’re going. Memphis grabs you, pulls you in and slays you with its food, its culture, its smells, sights, sounds and its grit & grind.

To make the most out of my last moments here, I’ve decided to do a 9-day Mandy Does Memphis binge where I try my best to eat and do all of my favorite things one last time as a resident. Here’s the list, which I technically started yesterday.
