The Red Bar – Grayton Beach, FL
Whenever we’re along the Emerald Coast, we manage to squeeze in a dinner at the Red Bar. That generally means getting there right after they open. It’s a bar, plain and simple. As you pass through the freaky door, you enter a place that is SO PACKED with tables and people that you wonder how […]
The Shrimp Shack, Seaside, FL
One of the challenges of going to the beach is deciding where you’re going to eat. Do we eat at some place we know? Or do we strike out on a new adventure? Saturday night, we decided to try some place new. We were heading down to Seaside, to either Bud and Alley’s Taco Bar […]
Douceur de France – Marietta, GA
We first discovered Douceur de France in December of 2010, when it was just a hole-in-the-wall off Glover Street in Marietta (old location photo above). I had seen a note in the Cheap Eats edition of Atlanta Magazine recommending their croque monsieur. I googled the menu and saw Jambon Buerre Fromage (ham, swiss cheese and […]
The Greener Burger, Rome, GA – CLOSED
THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED. Following the recent demise of Farmhouse 303, let me lament the passing of another restaurant. On Halloween day, we were up in Rome visiting Madison and decided to try out a new place that had opened on Broad Street, downtown, the Greener Burger. Great concept for a restaurant. The folks that […]
Cheesesteaks – Philadelphia, PA
So we asked everyone we met in Philadelphia where we should go for a cheesesteak. We got almost as many answers as there were people we asked. So we decided that we’d make it easier and narrow it down to two that were across the street from each other – Geno’s Steaks and Pat’s King […]
Urban Pl8 – Atlanta, GA – CLOSED
THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED. We tried this new (at the time, it had been open less than a year) restaurant after a review in the AJC, Urban Pl8. Great local in-town restaurant on Huff Rd, in West Midtown, focusing on quality + affordability. They also focus on fresh, seasonal food. On our first night, they […]
Tavern on the Green – New York City, NY
If I recall correctly, this was actually the first day that it occurred to me to take a picture of food and where I was eating. For the years leading up to their sixteenth birthdays, I had told both of our girls that when each of them turned sixteen that I’d take them anywhere in […]
