Good morning, Chattanooga!
These last few weeks, I’ve been tourist-ing it up around the city with my best friend before she goes back home to Bermuda.
For entertainment, we’ve gone to the aquarium and a concert at the Walker Theatre.
For ice cream, Ooltewah Whistle Stop, Clumpies and the Ice Cream show. We’ve spent time at the Chattanooga Market, went to our first Lookouts game and hung out in Coolidge people watching all the high schoolers taking pictures before prom.
And at this point, we’re regulars at the Together Cafe in Highland Park.
There are so many good local spots to explore and love in this city and we at the Times Free Press want to know which organizations you, our readers, think are the best of the best.
