Bantam + Biddy – Atlanta, GA

I remember hearing about the opening of Shaun Doty (formerly of Shaun’s / currently of Yeah Burger) and Lance Gummere’s (formerly of the Shed at Glenwood) Bantam + Biddy some months back, but had forgotten about it until I read an article about Scoutmob’s anticipated 2013 restaurant openings.  They’re opening another organic local-poultry place at […]

Eats – Atlanta, GA

Heading downtown for what, ultimately, turned out to be a non-existent event, I was torn, once again, with the question, “What do I want to eat?”  My first instinct was for a box of hot Krispy Kreme glazed donuts, but reason prevailed and I determined I needed “real” food.  So there I was, on Ponce […]

Holeman & Finch Public House – Atlanta, GA

About a week ago, after church when we had zero chance of getting there before the crowds, it occurred to me just how long it had been since we had been to Holeman & Finch Public House for their fabulous burgers, so we made plans to go today.  When we arrived about 11:15 (they open […]

Six Feet Under – Atlanta, GA

Looking back, I can’t believe that I haven’t written about Six Feet Under.  We used to eat there quite regularly, at the original location across from Oak Lawn Cemetery (hence the name), in Grant Park.   A couple of years back they moved down the street (Tin Lizzy is in their old location) into new digs […]

Curly’s Fried Chicken – Atlanta, GA – CLOSED

THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED. I saw, several months back that Curly’s Fried Chicken had appeared on the site of the defunct Leroy’s Fried Chicken on Howell Mill.  One Saturday while we were roaming around the city, I decided to grab some carry-out for dinner before we headed back to the suburbs. The first thing I […]

Watershed on Peachtree – Atlanta, GA

On a Saturday morning, as we lazed around the house, we decided to head toward the city for brunch.  I consulted Open Table looking for a spot, and grabbed a noon table for two at Watershed.  We’ve been fans of Watershed for years, but we hadn’t been since they moved downtown.   We actually drove by […]

Crystal Beer Parlor – Savannah, GA

In the same Southern Living’s Georgia Living insert that listed their “10 Favorite Burger Spots”, and that sent me to A & A Restaurant & Convenience in Allentown, they mentioned two spots in Savannah, Crystal Beer Parlor and Green Truck Pub.   It appeared that the Green Truck was the closest to our travel path, but […]

A&A Restaurant & Convenience – Allentown, GA

As I’ve said before, the genesis of this blog was the quest for the perfect burger.  I’m always asking folks, after I meet them, “where is your favorite burger in your home town?”.  And people are often sending me links or articles when they hear about a great burger.  One of Jo’s friends gave her […]

John’s Biscuit & Pizza – Hiram, GA

Several weeks ago, a friend of ours from Journey Group told me that we needed to try out John’s Biscuits & Pizza.  With a name like that, how could it be a bad choice?  Sure, you wouldn’t (probably) want biscuits and pizza together (I don’t know that I’ve ever tried it), but, separately?  Two perfectly […]

Crawfish Shack Seafood – Atlanta, GA

When a friend and I decided that we were meeting for lunch on Tuesday, he let me pick the place.   With his office at Ashford-Dunwoody and mine in Duluth, there isn’t a whole lot that is equi-distant.   I remembered seeing something about Crawfish Seafood Shack in Atlanta magazine and in an edition of Marie, Let’s […]
