Memphis novelties:
Places featured in The Next Big Thing

Buckley's
117 Union Ave and 5355 Poplar Ave.
One of the best restaurants in Memphis, this upscale eatery (the prices are totally reasonable, and the food is delicious) provides the setting for a crucial scene in The Next Big Thing. Sample their divine steaks, mouth-watering pastas, or yummy chicken dishes. And if you're not in the low-carb zone, make sure you order their garlic mashed potatoes (a.k.a Buckley Buds). Visit their website.
 
 
Chez Philippe
149 Union Ave
Located in the famous Peabody Hotel, Chez Phillippe is one of Memphis' finest restaurants. Kat Larson dreams of going on a date there in The Next Big Thing. Visit them online.
 
 
Otherlands Coffee Bar & Exotic Gifts
641 South Cooper
It doesn't get much better than this fun, funky coffee shop in Midtown Memphis. Even if you're not a fan of java, you'll want to stop by to check out Otherland's awesome gift shop and sample some of their delicious pastries and bagels. This hotspot is the site of a coffee date in The Next Big Thing.
