Old 4th Ward Pizza – Atlanta, GA
Back in January, I saw that Old 4th Ward Pizza had opened in, you guessed it, the Old 4th Ward, in the Irwin Street Market. They make grandma-style pizza and appear to be the only folks in town making that kind of pizza. By the name, one would guess that it’s pizza like your grandma […]
Thirteen Pies – Atlanta, GA
Our newlywed daughter and son-in-law have set an admirable food goal for the summer – knock as many places off Creative Loafing’s 100 places to Eat in Atlanta list as they can. When they called and asked if we’d like to meet for dinner, I told them to pick a spot from the list, in […]
Veruni Napoli – Atlanta, 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.
Oz Pizza – Fairburn, GA
On this rainy Saturday evening, we headed down to Fairburn to meet up with some friends to see “110 in the Shade” at the theater downtown. They had picked up the tickets for a group of ten of us and we said that we’d meet at Oz Pizza for dinner before the show. We arrived […]
Baraonda Ristorante & Bar – Atlanta, GA
As the Holiday weekend approached, Grant e-mailed and asked if we were going to be in town for the weekend and might want to meet he and Marie and have dinner. We compared notes of places that neither had been, and decided on Baraonda Ristorante & Bar. The name was on my list, but I […]
LPC (La Pietra Cucina) – Atlanta, GA
LPC (La Pietra Cucina) is a place that I’ve had on a list for several years, but never visited. Today, as I was heading back toward the office from a meeting downtown, I realized that I had time to stop in for a bite. It was a late lunch, on a Monday, and I had […]
Ammazza – Atlanta, GA
Several weeks back, when we went to Varasano’s Pizzeria, we were talking with the waitress about the state of pizza in Atlanta. She told the story of one of her friends who is a server at Ammazza: It seem that they were both going to a party and each of them was to bring a […]
Gordo’s New York Style Pizza – Duluth, GA
In today’s episode of dining alone, I kept driving until I saw some place “new” (to me). There was a sign for a hot wing place that drew me into the shopping center attached to the Texaco, at the corner of Rogers Bridge and Peachtree Industrial Boulevard, but found thta they didn’t open until 3:00. […]
La Tagliatella – Atlanta, GA
For Mother’s Day, we headed over to Emory Village with our youngest and her boyfriend, for brunch at La Tagliatella. We had originally considered a visit to La Tagliatella when we were downtown several months ago, at their midtown location. I discovered, when I was writing this blog post, that the midtown location closed at […]
Varasano’s Pizzeria – Atlanta, GA
When we were looking for a place to have lunch on Good Friday, Jo told me to find a place that I was interested in trying. Varasano’s Pizzeria has been on my list since April of 2010, when they were listed in the pizza section of the Cheap Eats issue of Atlanta Magazine, but we […]
