After an afternoon at Top Golf with our daughter and son-in-law, followed by some shopping, since we were already in town, it was time to head home. The original plan was to pick up some barbecue on the southside of 20, but, by not paying attention to Atlanta sports schedules, we found ourselves stuck in […]
Late last year, Atlanta Magazine published a list of the 75 “Best Restaurants” and gave me 30+ places we hadn’t been, to try.

Harden’s Hamburgers is a place that’s been on my radar since I bought my first copy of Hamburger America. And then a couple of folks, from Tulsa, gave it to me as a recommendation over the last couple of years, when I asked about “great burgers” from their hometown. We were heading to the bluegrass […]
>As we were driving to Kansas, it was approaching lunch time and we were in Mississippi. I put “barbecue” into Google maps and several popped up. Clay’s House of Pig (C.H.O.P.) had the best name and was not too far off I-40, so off we went. Pulling up to a restaurant that shares space with […]
