Moriscos La Riviera Nayarit – Norcross, GA
Moriscos La Riviera Nayarit has been on my list, pretty much since it opened in 2011. Located on Jimmy Carter, just east of I-85, it has been close to my office, but not close “enough” to have made it there, yet. On this day, I was heading south around lunch time and made a plan […]
Zeke’s Kitchen & Bar – Smyrna, GA
Zeke’s Kitchen & Bar popped onto my “list” from an Eater list of the best sandwiches in Atlanta. On this Sunday, we were heading to Marietta and I realized just how close we were to Zeke’s. I’ve never had Haitian cuisine, but we’ve had Dominican food (from the other end of the island), so I […]
Birdcage – Atlanta, GA
An article from Eater Atlanta about new restaurants in the city, put Birdcage on the list. On Memorial Drive, just east of Boulevard, the decor screams Miami Beach, at the peak of its glory, in both color and tone. Combine that with an homage to the mid-nineties Nathan Lane / Robin Williams film of the […]
Sinaloense Pollo Asados
Months back, I heard about the family owned and operated El Autentico Sinaloense Pollo Asados, on Buford Highway, as a place we needed to try. We actually attempted to go there, I think on the Friday after Thanksgiving, and they weren’t open, so they stayed on “the list”. This Saturday, we were heading to town […]
Tio Lucho’s – Atlanta, GA
Last year, Tio Lucho’s popped onto my radar, in an article about 75 restaurants that you needed to try in Atlanta. A couple of month’s back, when we went to Fishmonger, I saw it across the street and thought about trying to go for a “double lunch”, but the timing did not work on that […]
D Boca N Boca – Atlanta, GA
This restaurant “does not accept cash”. It took almost three years for D Boca N Boca to open. And I’ve been watching the space for most of that time. You see, I’m a sucker for authentic Mexican food. Don’t get me wrong – I’ve got nothing against well done strip-mall “Dos-Burros-Amigos-Fiesta-Loco” Americanized-Mexican food, but that’s […]
Birrieria Landeros – Duluth, GA
Looking for lunch on a Thursday, I saw a new sign on what used to be Curry-licious, for Birreria Landeros. Going in, I recognized the tables and bar, but the wall art and vibe was very different. I was the only person there, so the young man asked me if I wanted some music or […]
El Salvador Bakery II – Lawrenceville, 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.
