I will be in Memphis next week staying in the downtown area near Beale St. Anyone have any "must go" places in that area? Below are a few places that have already been mentioned to me.

Gus' Chicken
Automatic Slim's
Encore - Former Chef de Cuisine of Chez Philippe in the Peabody Hotel - http://www.encore-memphis.com/index.cfm

If you want to stay downtown, go ahead and hit up the Rendezvous for ribs. I'm not getting into a BBQ fight, but it is a classic Memphis place with good food. Gus' is a good call for fried chicken.

I would search the archives, as this topic has been discussed at length int he past.
