The cafe will feature light fare like the Ooey Gooey, a peanut butter and jelly sandwhich on Bluff View Bakery sourdough bread, and The Chef, a salad featuring a bed of baby mixed greens with house roasted turkey, apple wood smoked ham, cucumber, tomato, cheddar cheese and a boiled egg.
The Caprese sandwich, also served on sourdough, includes turkey, provolone and sun dried tomato mayonnaise. And The Carver offers house roasted beef with creamy horseradish sauce on sourdough with lettuce, tomato, onion and a pickle spear. The Teacher’s Pride, perhaps targeted at school group chaperones, offers ham, cheddar cheese and apple butter on sourdough.
The cafe came about because museum visitors frequently asked about food and refreshments, said Virginia Anne Sharber, executive director of the museum.
“The Hunter has such a beautiful view for diners to enjoy a casual lunch overlooking the Tennessee River. Folks passing by the museum on the RiverWalk as well as museum guests can pick up lunch at the museum cafe to enjoy in the cafe or on our terrace.”
