Nueva San Salvador Bakery – Hiram, GA
Even with it having been open for over a year (they opened in November 2016), I had no idea that we had a Salvadoran restaurant in Hiram. But, on Saturday, when I ran to Office Max to pick something up, there was Nueva San Salvador Bakery, in the same strip mall. I got so excited, […]
Cuban Delights
Months back, I saw a sign, on the side of truck, parked on the side of the road, as I was heading up 278 from Dallas saying “Cuban Food”. My immediate thought was “where?” Then, several months later I decided to turn down the road and look for it and there it was, on the […]
The Stand – Phoenix, AZ

Bartaco – Atlanta, GA
Earlier this week, when talking about taquerias, someone mentioned how much their son was enjoying Bartaco on the Westside.
