Pizza Farm – Rockmart, GA
So on a Saturday afternoon, we’re heading back from Rome (after visiting our youngest at Berry) and approaching dinner time. If you’ve ever driven from metropolitan Rome to metropolitan Douglasville, you know that the towns through which you pass (Aragon, Yorkville and Rockmart) are not known as culinary Meccas. In fact, the only non-chains once […]
Bone Lick BBQ – Atlanta, GA
A couple of weeks back, I heard that a new BBQ spot had opened on the Westside, of which the proprietor was Mike LaSage (the chef behind Monday night barbecue at P’Cheen). When I was deciding where to grab a bite down town and found myself on Howell Mill, my memory kicked in and down […]
Bud and Allie’s Taco Bar – Seaside, FL (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.
Rosebud – Atlanta, GA – CLOSED
THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED. Home from college for the weekend and asked “where would you like to eat tomorrow”, our youngest said, “I really don’t care. Unless you want to go to that place for pimiento cheese.” I knew “that place” was Rosebud. So we headed to Morningside. Several years ago, we went to what-was-then-Food-101 […]
BGR: the Burger Joint – Atlanta, GA
About two weeks ago there was an article in the Atlanta Business Chronicle about the “burger wars” in Atlanta and one of the contenders was BGR: the Burger Joint. A place of which I’d never heard. Hmmmm. Challenge accepted. Plotting a trip into the city, we found ourselves in the parking garage of Atlantic Station, […]
Rathbun’s – Atlanta, GA
For the last four years, I’ve been intending to eat at Rathbun’s but, for whatever reason, it hadn’t worked out. When we were looking for a dinner spot for four and the place Jo had chosen had recently closed, I thought today might be the day. I went to Rathbun’s and there was an opening […]
Papi’s – Atlanta, GA
As our youngest was preparing to head back to college, we asked if there was a particular place that she would like to eat. Her first thought was Papi’s Cuban & Caribbean Grill, on Ponce de Leon. I’ve said for years that the best Cuban sandwich in Atlanta was at the old Havana Sandwich Shop. […]
Stackhouse – Dallas, TX
I was heading to Dallas for some meetings and, knowing my penchant for burgers, the folks in our office arranged our outside meetings around being in the neighborhood of Stackhouse around noon. We were coming from the north side of the city and arrived shortly after the other folks and found them waiting on the […]
Singleton’s Seafood Shack – Mayport, FL
On the way back to the Jacksonville airport from a meeting in Southeast Georgia, we had plenty of time to stop for dinner. The last time that we were making this swing (on a trip that included the Gold House and St. Mary’s Seafood and More), we discussed going to Singleton’s Seafood Shack but realized […]
Amazing Burger – Duluth, GA
While driving around Duluth a while back, I saw Amazing Burger in a strip shopping center in front of the Kroger on Steve Reynolds. I made a mental note of its location and thought that one day I’d swing by at lunch and see how it was. This Monday, with no one else around the […]
