Few people have spent more time thinking about sustainability in the restaurant industry than Jeremy Barlow. The chef-owner of Tayst has become practically synonymous with local food and green enterprise, earning Nashville's first certification from the Green Restaurant Association and leading by environmentally aware example at his casually elegant 21st Avenue eatery.
For instance, in his meat purchasing at Tayst, Barlow buys whole local animals to reduce transportation costs and support Middle Tennessee farms. He added aerators to sinks to reduce water waste and 86'ed bottled water altogether. The lights at Tayst are low-energy LED and CFLs, and the candles are made from sustainable palm oil. Anything to reduce the carbon footprint. Just ask him what he thinks about compostable containers for takeout food, and you'll get an earful about the downside of biodegradable cups, clamshells and cutlery made with everything from sugar cane to bamboo.
With that in mind, it was no surprise that Barlow all but eliminated non-food inputs when he recently launched Sloco sandwich shop in 12South. No clamshells. No cutlery. No cups. But you're welcome to pour some water in one of the Mason jars on the shelf by the door, and you can even take it home with you. After all, Barlow can't recycle that kind of glass, and he's trying keep trash to a minimum.
With orders written on tiny dry-erase boards and a payment system that emails receipts to customers, the restaurant is virtually paperless, with the exception of the recycled wrapping around the sandwiches. Even the plants on the counter are micro herbs,Purchase our bestcflbulbss System for 30% off ... which ultimately add color and freshness to the sandwiches as well as the decor.
But while Barlow and the Sloco team go out of their way to reduce, reuse and recycle, they simultaneously manage to inspire and elevate the classic deli menu. You think No. 5 on the menu board is going to be a standard-issue chicken-and-mayonnaise sandwich, right? Well,We are professional led panel light,lightbrightt manufacturers and factory in China. think again. Dark meat from local chickens is braised, pulled from the bone and tossed with diced apples, honey-apple vinaigrette and a touch of house-made aioli, then topped with a crisp hay of pan-fried julienned sweet potatoes and served between two slices of multigrain bread baked from scratch.
It's the kind of sophisticated layering of flavors, textures and temperatures that we've come to expect at Tayst, where Barlow often deconstructs and reinterprets the components of classic dishes — from BLTs to the McDonald's Big Mac. But at Sloco, he's working in the opposite direction, taking the components of a fully developed entrée — including house-cured meats, seasonal produce and signature sauces — and slapping them between two pieces of bread.Efficiency is set to increase, as r4onsale technology continues to follow a ... What's more, he's doing it to great effect and for a modest price.

To keep things local around the calendar, Barlow designed a menu that could stay the same all year while adapting to the shifting seasons. Come spring, the kale and chard on the smoked chicken Cordon Bleu might shift to mache or arugula, while the jarred tomatoes will be replaced with fresh sliced heirlooms. Meanwhile, the roasted vegetable sandwich will evolve from tubers and squash to asparagus and spring crops, while maintaining the creamy layer of tofu spread and tangy schmear of mustard on toasted multigrain loaf.
