Zesto – Atlanta, GA
One day you look around and you realize that you’ve never said a word about someplace that you may eaten at all of your life. So, here goes. First, it’s Zesto – not Zesto’s, as most people (including me) say. They’ve been open, in Atlanta, since 1949, with four locations here (and one in Tyrone) […]
The Hil on the Hill at Serenbe – Palmetto, GA
We had eaten at the Hil on the Hill a couple of times since it opened in 2007, but had not been in several years. Every time that we had been before, we had remarked as we left that we wondered if it would still be open the next time that we went to Serenbe, […]
The Local – Marietta, GA
Today’s adventure began with errand running in Kennesaw, which led to being in the Marietta area for lunch. I remembered that I had seen a place on the complete opposite corner of the Square from the Butcher and the Baker that served “Breakfast and Lunch”, that I wanted to try, but I couldn’t remember the […]
H Harper Station – Atlanta, GA
Housed in the old Atlanta and West Point railroad station, I have seen H Harper Station several times as we headed off the Glenwood Avenue exit toward Memorial over the last couple of years. And I remember having read about them in several different magazines over the last year, being particularly intrigued by their Kentucky […]
Mr Ed’s Oyster Bar – Metairie, LA
Arriving in Metairie for a meeting, I was surprised when they asked me what I wanted to do for lunch. Because, as always, when there was food involved, I did have a plan. Before I left, I looked on my list, for places near where we were going to be, and found Bozo’s in the […]
Sun In My Belly – Decatur, GA
Looking for a dinner choice for Friday night, it really boiled down to the confluence of the answers to two questions: 1) What sounds good?; and 2) Where can we get a reservation? When I saw Sun In My Belly appear as a choice on OpenTable, I clicked on the first time slot that we […]
Illegal Food @ Joystick – Atlanta, GA
On Monday night , driving home from dropping something off in town, I noticed Joystick Gamebar on Edgewood, for the first time. It’s on a stretch of road I don’t often drive, but the name stuck in my mind. Then on Tuesday, Business Insider wrote this article about the best burgers in each state. They […]
Trackside Grill – Kennesaw, GA
As we were leaving church on Sunday morning, we saw my nephew and his wife in the parking lot and they mentioned that they were heading to the Big Shanty Festival in Kennesaw that afternoon. We hadn’t heard of the festival, or planned to go, but Jo was curious and I thought that there might […]
Rhea’s Take Out Foods – Roswell, GA
Let me preface this blog post by saying that it’s easier for us to eat in the city of Atlanta than it is to eat in Roswell. It may actually be easier to eat in Chattanooga or Birmingham. There’s just not a good way to get there from Paulding County. It takes FOREVER. Nevertheless, today […]
Chat and Choo – Villa Rica, GA
Today’s adventure takes us to the Chat and Choo (See what they did there? Choo versus Chew? It’s across the street from the railroad tracks), downtown in the City of Riches. In case you didn’t know, Villa Rica was the home of Georgia’s first gold rush, in 1826. As we parked and were crossing US […]
