Fat Mo’s – Murfreesboro, TN
My original plan for Saturday morning included having breakfast in downtown Nashville. The first restaurant that I tried had a line out the door and down the street, so I went to the second. They told me that there was an estimated forty-five minute wait. For breakfast? For one? I ultimately ended up skipping breakfast […]
City House – Nashville, TN
One of the articles I reviewed, before I made my trip to Tennessee, was from Garden and Gun Magazine, in the 50 Best Southern Foods article from the October / November, 2011, issue. In it, they raved about the locally produced ham belly pizza served at City House in Nashville. After a day of wandering […]
Rotier’s Restaurant – Nashville, TN
I had decided, on the drive up to Nashville, that this was the day to try Rotier’s Restaurant for a burger. They’ve been atop Nashville’s best burger list for years. Located in Nashville’s West End, the parking is, effectively, non-existent. There is street parking available (a total of about five spots in front of the […]
Martin’s Bar-B-Que Joint – Nolensville, TN
I first heard about Martin’s Bar-Que Joint in an article in Garden & Gun Magazine titled “100 Southern Foods You Absolutely, Positively, Must Try Before You Die”. The author “didn’t care for the slur” in their “Redneck Taco”, but loved the sandwich. I had intended to go there on an earlier trip back from Nashville, […]
The Glass Onion- Charleston, SC
As we were heading to Charleston, I only had two places on my food list, the Glass Onion and Martha Lou’s Kitchen. We heard about the Glass Onion on Road Trip with G. Garvin on the Travel Channel. Then I found out they had been on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. And then I read an […]
Mot’s Bar-B-Que – Augusta, GA
As a bit of general advice, the worst time in the world to go on a barbecue hunt is the week of the 4th of July. Not thinking that through completely, as we were heading over to Charleston for a long weekend, I had a couple of places in mind to try along the way. […]
Grand Champion BBQ – Roswell, GA
I’d been wanting to try Grand Champion BBQ, since I saw them listed in Atlanta Magazine’s May, 2013 barbecue issue. When we were discussing lunch today, I was reminded, as was my dearest, of last year’s 4th of July rib debacle where we struck out in 4 places (The Old Brick Pit, Heirloom Market, Thompson […]
Bhojanic – Atlanta, GA
I first heard about Bhojanic from Atlanta magazine in the fall of 2011, when they appeared (out of nowhere, at least to me) on the list of the 50 best restaurants in Atlanta. Since then, I’ve been looking for the right time to go and this afternoon, when we were heading downtown relatively early, I […]
Sweet Auburn Curb Market – Atlanta, GA
After first hearing about Bell Street Burritos in Atlanta Magazine (back in the March, 2012 “Cheap Eats” edition), I’ve been meaning to get by there. They had opened a location on Howell Mill, which I believed would surely be easier to get to than the Sweet Auburn Curb Market. But it closed without me ever […]
Fat Matt’s Rib Shack – Atlanta, GA
I first discovered Fat Matt’s Rib Shack seven or eight years ago when someone suggested that I go there and hear this blues band. Now I end up there about once every five or six weeks. Somehow, I’ve failed to blog about it. This entry actually comprises two visits (so that I can cover more […]
