Guthrie's On Lookout Mountain Exceeds Expectations

Tuesday, June 30, 2009 - by Bruce Bowden

I wrote an article a couple of weeks ago about the newest business on Lookout Mountain, Guthrie’s Restaurant. Well, they were a week later in opening that planned, but they did open on the 24th and, boy, is the turn-out great.

I’ve had the chance to eat there twice since the opening, and have been extremely pleased with both purchases.

The fried chicken with sauce is awesome, but since my wife can’t have anything but grilled, we went that route also. Extremely good. Plus, I loved the cole slaw and Texas toast.

Believe me, I’m not being paid to endorse this new eatery. I’m just glad to have something locally that we can enjoy.

I’m sure you’ll find Guthrie's a great place to feed your family. If you find something that needs attention, I will bet that the management will work hard to see that your needs are met.

Thanks, Guthries. Welcome to Lookout Mountain.

Thoughs On The Mathews Sentencing

It is not by coincidence I haven’t submitted an opinion piece in some time to the Chattanoogan.  The topics I cover are generally vitriolic in regards to local political decisions and their makers regarding public safety and I do not wish to associate my name with more noble subjects such as that of the heroic death and cowardly murder of Chattanooga Police Sergeant Tim Chapin, ...

Thank You, Judge Mattice And Chattanooga

I would like to thank Judge Mattice for handing down a 30.5 year sentence for Kathleen Mathews.  Obviously, no amount of jail time, fines, or lashings can bring back Tim Chapin.   A 30-year sentence will, however, make the world just a little safer.  That's what Sgt. Chapin would have wanted.  He was a protector and sacrificed his life so the rest of ... (click for more)
