Zyka – Decatur, 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.
Rising Son – Avondale Estates, GA
Our daughter and son-in-law had told us about how good the breakfast and dinner were at Rising Sons a month or two back. When we were near Avondale Estates around dinner time, I made a bee line for the Tudor inspired downtown. Located just down the street from Pallolaville, there seems to be quite […]
Anna’s BBQ – Atlanta, GA
About mid way through “Barbecue Week”, there was an article on Eater.com – Atlanta about where the local chefs like to eat barbecue. I love these articles as they always point out some place that I didn’t have on my radar. This time, the blip was Anna’s BBQ, in Kirkwood. A couple of the chefs […]
Kavarna Coffee – Decatur, GA
So…. after the really bland burger, my beloved asked me how close we were to “that place with the house-made pumpkin spice latte”. That phrase equates to Kavarna Coffee. Earlier in the month, when we ate at Steinbeck’s, the server had told us how good the pumpkin spice latte was across the street. We went […]
Steinbeck’s Ale House – Decatur, GA
We’ve been working our way through Atlanta Magazine’s list of the twenty best burgers, on and off, since it was published in January. Tonight, we’re knocking off one of our two remaining places in the top ten, Steinbeck’s Ale House in Oakhurst, tonight. This selection was based on a combination of location and […]
Revival – Decatur, GA – CLOSED
THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED. We had been excitedly anticipating the open of Kevin Gillespie’s Revival for months, shortly after we first heard of its opening. About three weeks back, our youngest sent me a text that they were opening that week and we set a date and made reservations. Located in a home from the […]
Pinewood Tippling Room – Decatur, GA
I had read about Pinewood Tippling Room when it opened in 2012, in the boom of cocktail bars that opened that summer. What is a “tippling room”, you may ask? To tipple is “to drink (liquor) especially continuously in small amounts” – making this a place to drink, slowly. So, it’s a bar. A bar […]
Chai Pani – Decatur, GA
Every since the visits to Bojhanic and Cardamom Hill, I knew that the next time that we went out for Indian, Chai Pani would be the place. Originally opening in Asheville in 2009 (thinking back three or four years, I remember having Chai Pani recommended to me by a vegetarian friend of mine), a couple […]
Kimball House – Decatur, GA
Kimball House had been on my short list for many months before Southern Living named it the best new restaurant in the South in August of 2014. Since they don’t take reservations, I knew that getting a table would be even more of a challenge after the article came out. For our anniversary, as a […]
Victory Sandwich Bar – Decatur, GA
I don’t remember where I first heard of Victory Sandwich Bar (possibly the Eater 38), but when we were looking for lunch heading from the southeast quadrant of 285 to downtown, Decatur seemed like a convenient stop. We headed into downtown Decatur, found a place on the street to park and walked into a nearly […]
