When I am in Knoxville I like to grab a bite to eat at Litton’s and see old friends.

The “BEST” burger in town.

Having been on the road many years, the band and I would seek out the best places to eat. Some were great and some were not so great. What we would do on our road trips would be to plan our travel time to and from gigs so as to allow us time to eat at the places where we really enjoyed the food and the people. That's how important it was to us considering out hectic schedule.

Then, in the mid 80s I discovered a place in my own hometown that is my favorite of all places. Back then they served the best hamburger that I ever had put in my mouth. It was called "The Big Ten Burger." Over the years, this place has transformed itself into the best eatery in East Tennessee. They now offer the best steaks and seafood you have ever tasted. They also have daily meat and three specials for lunch that are great. Oh! And if you have a sweet tooth, the desserts are to die for. My favorites are the chocolate cake, the Italian cream cake and the turtle brownies. There are many more great desserts to choose from.

So, if it's great food, great folks and interesting conversation you're looking for, please check out Litton's Restaurant and tell 'em Con sent ya.

As I was growing up in Knoxville, I loved nothing more then eating a big juicy burger and homemade onion rings from Litton’s Restaurant. In 2004, I retired from the New York Yankees and moved back to Knoxville. Litton’s is still a favorite and I am usually here having one of the juiciest steaks that I have ever put in my mouth along with a huge piece of Italian Cream Cake!
