Charlie Joseph’s – LaGrange, GA
Heading down to the Middle East (of Alabama), we were rolling down I-85 and realized that we were running out of choices, rapidly, for lunch (if we wanted to eat soon) when I remembered seeing a sign about chili dogs last time we went to Pine Mountain. Nearing 185, I saw the sign for Charlie […]
The Argosy – Atlanta, GA
Hanging out in the city on a Saturday, for a change, it was creeping toward dinner time. I went on line for a couple of lists of pizza places to try and up came a recommendation for the Argosy. Located in East Atlanta Village, across the street from Elder Tree Pub, we arrived a little […]
Phil’s B-B-Q – Eufala, AL (no zomato)
Another post where it’s been so long since we’ve eaten there that I can’t remember the experience – Phil’s BBQ.
Yum’s II – Washington, DC
Tonight’s first dinner comes to you courtesy of an article from the July 2011 issue Travel and Leisure, called “The United States of Deliciousness”. In it, the chef at Beef & Barley raved about the Philly cheesesteak at Yum’s II. He said it was the best cheesesteak, outside of Philly. Challenge accepted. In town for […]
Tom + Chee – Kennesaw, GA
Over the last ten months, I’ve eaten at two different Tom+Chee restaurants, on three different occasions. Ever since I was a kid, I’ve LOVED grilled cheese and tomato soup together and thought the idea of a restaurant focused on that pairing was brilliant. These guys got their big start on Shark Tank and have now […]
Bennie’s Red Barn – Saint Simons Island, GA
Ever since our kids were small, St. Simons Island has always been a special place for our family. As our family has grown (with the addition of two sons in law), we’ve made a Labor Day weekend tradition of renting a house and all going down for the long weekend. There are places that we […]
Stax’s Original Restaurant – Greenville, SC
After an afternoon chasing the Great Eclipse of 2017, we were back into the middle of a hot August afternoon and were making plans for the evening. We had viewed the celestial event over in Pendleton and then went into Greenville for some late afternoon shopping. Dinner time came around and I remembered in an […]
Tupelo Honey – Sandy Springs, GA
Fourth of July morning was atypical for us. For the last seven years, we’ve walked the South’s largest road race – the Peachtree Road Race. But neither of us was really feeling it this year, so we passed. That allowed us to sleep in and then we headed out for brunch. I searched Open Table […]
Buckner’s Family Restaurant – Jackson, GA
For years, my dad and mom had a couple of friends that, on a random afternoon, would drive up and say, “Y’all want to go to Buckner’s?” And off they went – to Jackson (about an hour south of the Atlanta airport), for fried chicken that has been served up, along side I-75, for almost […]
