The Po’ Boy Shop – Decatur, GA
In a listing of best sandwiches in Atlanta, the Po’ Boy Shop appeared. It actually had appeared before me on three occasions, when I had tried, unsuccessfully, to get a Cuban sandwich next door at Buena Gente, but I had looked past it. On a Sunday afternoon, looking for something to carry home for dinner, […]
Humble Mumble – Atlanta, GA
On the day after Christmas, at a near-deserted CODA Collective food hall, we made our way to Humble Mumble. Chef Justin Dixon‘s restaurant, named after his favorite Outkast song, had been on my radar, since seeing it on an eater Atlanta list of the best sandwiches in Atlanta. But they’re only open from 11 AM […]
How Crispy Express – Atlanta
After the grouper sandwich search found at FishMonger, the next sandwich on the list was from How Crispy Express. This former pop up, now in a storefront in Summerhill is just across the patio from Wood’s Chapel. I’ve seen the signage several times but never gone in. I’ve also browsed the menu on-line, several times, […]
Chattahoochee Food Works – Atlanta, GA (Quick Bite)
In these pandemic times, for all of us, the world has changed. We still eat three meals a day, but for the last eighteen months very few of them have been “out”, particularly at a new restaurant. On this fall Saturday, we made an outing to IKEA. Since we were already hazarding the universe at […]
Snappy Lunch – Mt. Airy, NC
While in Wilkesboro, NC, for MerleFest, we went roaming one day to Mt. Airy. Most famous as the hometown of Andy Griffith, it is promoted as a modern-day Mayberry – right down to Floyd’s barber shop and a Mayberry police car parked on Main Street. But we were there for a different purpose – the […]
Bleu House Market – Norcross, GA
I love the chance to meet one of my girls for lunch. And when the lunch spot, unbeknownst to us, ends up being a barbecue spot, it’s a double win. Looking for some place new to try, one of her co-workers told her that the Market, in Norcross, was her “kind of place”. Unsure what […]
Flavors of Chicago – Duluth, 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. Flavors of Chicago
Souper Jenny – Atlanta, GA
Souper Jenny is another place that has been on my list for a decade. But the location that put them there, in Buckhead, on West Andrews and only being open for lunch Monday – Saturday made them really hard to get to. Souper Jenny’s four Atlanta locations are part of Planet Jenny – […]
Bubba Mac’s – Douglasville, GA
I’d been talking about going to Bubba Mac’s for over a decade, but there never seemed to be the right time. They had been located on Highway 92, just north of downtown Douglasville, since 1997 but we never seemed to make it in (there location was not conducive to my traffic patterns, but they’ve developed […]
Yalla – Atlanta, GA
Last month, when we visited Fred’s Meat and Bread, while we were in line Jo was eying the menu and counter at Yalla, a fast-fresh Mediteranean / contemporary Israeli foodstand. Yalla is a next door neighbor and sister restaurant to Fred’s, and another restaurant from Todd Ginsberg. The menu is quite simple – you can […]
