Sushi House Hayakawa – Atlanta, GA

Another place that has been on the list for a decade is Sushi House Hayakawa.  When it first appeared on my radar, I was not nearly as adventurous an eater as I’ve evolved into.  As a result, whenever I was looking for a place to go, it kept moving toward the bottom of the list.  […]

Little Serow – Washington, DC

Every spring, for the last twenty-something years, I head to a conference in Washington, DC.  As with every other adventure I take, there’s always planning around the Omnivore’s Dilemna.  Last year, I tried to get to a restaurant that was new to the scene in 2014 and has been named the second best restaurant in […]

Kirin Japanese Restaurant – Duluth, GA (Photo Blog Post)

As I didn’t get around to posting this timely and I can’t remember all the details of the meal, I’m now posting this restaurant as a photo blog.

Sushi Huku 

As I was heading to meet some folks in Vinings, I went back to the well of the original list, once again, and looked at the options.  I found that Sushi Huku was on the list and on the way.  While it has a Sandy Springs address, it is right there at Akers Mill and Powers Ferry […]

Scott’s Eats and Sweets – Mableton, GA – CLOSED

THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED. There was a recent Yelp email about the best pho places outside the perimeter (off Buford Highway) and I was shocked (SHOCKED, I say) that one of them was in Mableton.  So tonight, when we were looking for a place to eat, and didn’t want to drive into “the City”, I suggested […]

Co’m Vietnamese Grill 

I’ve been meaning to eat at Co’m Vietnamese Grill for quite a while.  We had even been in one night for dinner while my beloved was doing the whole thirty and couldn’t find any dishes that weren’t rice or noodle based, so we went elsewhere.   When a cohort wanted to meet for lunch near the […]

Tamarand Seed Thai Cuisine – Atlanta, GA (Photo Blog Post)

As I didn’t get around to posting this timely and I can’t remember all the details of the meal, I’m now posting this restaurant as a photo blog.

Waikikie Hawaiian Barbecue – Atlanta, GA

Several times over the last six or eight months, as I worked my way from North Druid Hills toward Virginia-Highlands, I passed by Waikikie Hawaiian Barbecue and thought to myself, “I need to try that.”  But I didn’t ever get around to it.  So on this Sunday afternoon, as we were roaming around and dinner […]

Ton Ton Ramen and Yakatori – Atlanta, GA

It’s rare that I eat at a place twice before I blog about it. But I also rarely eat at a new place twice in a five day span.  As one of the newest spots to open in Ponce City Market, I’ve been waiting for Ton Ton Ramen and Yakatori to open ever since I […]

Yami Japan – Lawrenceville, GA

While I’m always on the hunt for some place new, today I was originally heading to Kingston 30, one of the Jamaican restaurants near the office.  But then I saw Yami Japan at the other end of the strip mall.  The $6.99 hibachi lunch special lured me in.  It’s a very simple setup, with the […]
