H Harper Station – Atlanta, GA (an update)
In an attempt to at least close out the top 10 on Atlanta Magazine’s 2015 Best Burger list before the end of the year, we made a return visit to H Harper Station for the “number 7”, their BeltLine burger. On our first visit, we were underwhelmed, but had not been led astray by […]
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 […]
Stone Soup Kitchen – Atlanta, GA
Another place from the original “list” (from August of 2006) gets a check mark in the box next to it, with a visit to Stone Soup Kitchen. Located off Boulevard, near 20, it’s not a “drive-by” opportunity on most occasions. Coupling that with my fear that, like every other breakfast place near there (Ria’s Bluebird […]
Miso Isakaya – Atlanta, GA
Tonight’s challenge: show up without a reservation and convince the maitre ‘d that you can eat and clear his only empty table before a 7:15 reservation. That’s exactly what happened when we arrived at Miso Isakaya. We succeeded on both counts – on getting the table, and on getting out by 6:45. After the fantastic […]
Augustine’s – Atlanta, GA
I was a couple of days into my own Burger Week, following the recent passing of Ms. Anne, and ready for another burger. I have absolutely no idea where I heard about the burger at Augustine’s. That is a rare thing for me – I usually remember what put some place on my list, or […]
The Albert – Atlanta, GA
Recently named the “6th Best Burger” in Atlanta (by Atlanta Magazine), the Original Diner Burger (ODB) was put on my “to try” list right after reading the article. Heading into town this morning (because it is Saturday and what else would you do) we headed toward Inman Park, sneaking up on The Albert from Little […]
Superica – Atlanta, GA
Sitting at home, watching NCAA conference championship weekend, the subject of lunch came up. I mentioned the excellent chicken tacos my love had enjoyed at El Felix last weekend and that we could get the same things at Superica in about half an hour. (Superica is Ford Fry’s newest Tex-Mex restaurant, in Krog Street Market, […]
The Luminary – Atlanta, GA
When we made our visit to Fred’s Meat and Bread at the end of last year, I first noticed the Luminary as one of the cornerstones of Krog Street Market. I had remembered reading about Atlanta Eli Kirshstein’s new French brasserie opening in late summer and made a note to give it a try. Tonight, […]
Little’s Food Store – Atlanta, GA
Today, after another heartbreaking GT basketball loss, I needed comforting. I chose to seek solace in a burger and, as I had been wanting to go to Little’s Food Store for a while – this was the perfect confluence of “need” and opportunity. This little grocery and grill in Cabbagetown has received recent press when […]
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 […]
