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 […]
Rising Son – Avondale Estates, GA
Our daughter and son-in-law had told us about how good the breakfast and dinner were at Rising Sons a month or two back. When we were near Avondale Estates around dinner time, I made a bee line for the Tudor inspired downtown. Located just down the street from Pallolaville, there seems to be quite […]
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 […]
Wildflower Cafe – Menton, AL (Photo Blog Post)
>/a> 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 […]
Bocado – Atlanta, GA
More than six years after our first visit to Bocado, I finally return with the specific purpose of blogging about it. Located at the corner of Howell Mill and Marietta Street, this is the first place that I remember the valet taking my car and asking me to move so he could back into a parking […]
Ticonderoga Club – Atlanta, GA
Our first attempt at dinner at the Ticonderoga Club was the weekend of the Inman Park Festival. But when we arrived, Krog Street Market had “sold” all their parking places to the festival. And they wanted $20 to allow us to park there (although KSM merchants could validate your parking and you could get $10 […]
Arnold’s Country Kitchen – Nashville, TN
Heading to Nashville for a day of meandering and food, we were heading to my favorite “guitar store” on the planet, Carter Vintage Guitar. I have had Arnold’s Country Kitchen on my list for several years, since they appeared in Garden-N’-Gun’s “50 Best Southern Foods” in the fall of 2011, and was surprised to find […]
