Our Favorite Latino-Owned Restaurants and Businesses in Nashville
Today we’re celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month with Martha Silva and Tara Lentz, the co-executive directors of Conexión Américas. They share insights into their organization's work to create opportunities for Latino families to thrive, and how you can get involved. They also discuss their favorite local Latino-owned restaurants and businesses. And stick around for our special segment, A Mile in Their Boots: We’ll be going inside a day in the life of Big Al Anderson, proprietor of the one and only Big Al’s Deli. Thanks to Tecovas, our Western wear faves, for sponsoring this segment, and for being our exclusive launch sponsor!
