WE TOLD YOU YOUR TIME WOULD COME, DIDN’T WE, GUYS? Since the May issue was all about the ladies, we thought it was only fair the June issue of Brentwood Lifestyle be dedicated to the gents of our community.

While we will celebrate the dads in our lives on Father’s Day, June 17, you don’t have to be a father to find something you’ll enjoy in these pages.

Now that you’ve met the female movers and shakers of the community, we’ll introduce you to some influential men in this month’s feature. Learn about what makes them unique and how they’re impacting the community. If you haven’t already, you’ll probably run into one—or several—of them out on the town!

Preparing for a night out with the guys? We’ll show you the perfect places in the community to grab a drink, watch the big game or just catch up with pals. If you’d

rather stay in, we provide you the perfect recipe to whip up. It’s guaranteed to impress—did we mention it’s easy?

LAYOUT DESIGNERS

We also introduce you to a local duo who share their favorite things with us. Finally, we put a spotlight on men’s health. It’s been months since many of us made New Year’s resolution to focus on our health and now’s the perfect time for a check-in.

Happy Father’s Day and happy June, gents.

The city used the spring open house as a way to unveil the new 4,000-square-foot paver courtyard located in the back of the property.

The courtyard was the city’s response to repeated sod replacement due to excessive use of the area. City commissioners approved $60,000 in the 2018-2023 Capital Improvement Plan to construct the paver courtyard.

Mayor Jill Burgin, Commissioner Ken Travis and other city leaders participated in a ceremony to unveil the new courtyard followed by a ribbon-cut-

AN HONEST LIST OF WHAT MEN REALLY LIKE MUST INCLUDE THE CLASSICS: LOVELY WOMEN, LOYAL DOGS, COLD BEER, GREAT BARBECUE AND FIERY HOT SAUCE. But, come summer, that list must also include time outdoors, preferably playing— maybe even a bit of competing— on the water and in the woods.

WHETHER HITTING THE LAKE OR THE TRAIL, SPEND SOME TIME OUTSIDE THIS SUMMER

Exercise in the great outdoors

WATER & WOODS

SUP, guys? Stand up paddleboarding—that's what's SUP. It’s outstanding exercise and lots of fun. Not owning a paddleboard is no excuse–not with Nashville Paddle Company around. They have, on Percy Priest Lake, the only lakefront boathouse in Nashville. And, since it's located in the Hamilton Creek Recreation Area, a public park, friends who don’t wish to paddleboard (their loss) may still dip in the water while you look down and say, “kiss my splash!”

The O rt h o d o n t i st Dr. Alec Rice Kemp Orthodontics “A smile can last a lifetime and is often the first trait noticed about an individual," Dr. Alec Rice says.

For that reason, a great day for him is when he’s helping folks improve their dental health and achieve that perfect smile, one that can enhance careers, relationships and improve quality of life.

“I’m a little like the sous chef,” he admits, referring to the skills and knowledge that he is gaining from Dr. David Kemp.

He is proud to announce—in addition to their Franklin and Brentwood offices—the team’s new location: Spring Hill.

The Wearer o f M a n y H at s Dr. David Kemp Kemp Orthodontics A man who strives for balance in all facets of life, Dr. David Kemp has lots of roles to keep him on his toes: dad, doctor, CEO, chef—even, at times, janitor and plumber. An expert in orthodontics, he finds most satisfying the weekly patient parties when a dozen or so braces come off, and a dozen or so new smiles light up the room. Leaving a legacy of helping others is key for him. He is active in the Seattle Study Club, a philanthropic and professional society for dentists, allowing him to perform life-changing dental work for people in need.

HOT SPOT

(CON TI N U ED)

01.

Begin with the beer. The Brentwood Corner Pub has 32 taps featuring such locally crafted favorites as Black Abbey’s The Rose, a Belgianstyle blond ale, and Jackalope’s Bearwalker, an American brown ale. Also available are more exotic flavors from farther afield such as Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale, a high-gravity—8.2 percent—brew out of Lexington.

02.

But men shall not live by fermented barley alone; order something to eat. Managing Partner Yogi Davis has some suggestions.

“The wings are a thing a beauty,” he says. “We make our own cayenne pepper-based sauce.”

Or try the Hot Chicken Chunks, boneless white meat marinated overnight with an in-house, spicy dry rub. Not feeling chicken?

Then get the burgers!

“They’re huge,” Yogi says. “They’re a halfpound of fresh meat cooked to temp, which is not something many people do.”

03.

With 27 TVs, there’s no such thing as a bad seat for watching the big game—or games.

“During football season, there are Sundays when every single game is being shown,” Yogi says.

There are also times when a big game is on, and all the TVs and patrons are tuned in, packing the pub shoulder to shoulder.

“When the U.S. men’s team scored against Ghana in the last World Cup, it was like the whole building moved,” Yogi recalls.
