Family Restaurant – Duluth, GA

One day, deciding that I wanted to eat something different for lunch, I ended up back at Family Restaurant.  (I’d add a link to their website here, but they don’t seem to have one.  They do have a Facebook page, here, which has had very little activity.)  Located just next door to the grill at […]

Steverino’s – Duluth, GA

It’s Friday, it’s lunch time and it’s raining, as a co-worker and I headed into downtown Duluth without a dining destination in mind. We did, however, have the solution that we’d eat at whichever restaurant had the closest parking spot available (solid reasoning, right?) What’s that – a spot on the curb, right in front […]

Which Wich? – Duluth, GA

A couple of weeks back, one of my co-workers went to the new location of Which Wich? which had opened semi-behind our office.  He had said that the sandwich was good and he was really impressed with how they made the sandwich.  I had stopped by to try it last week and the line was […]

PURE Taqueria – Duluth, GA

Over the last couple of years, the city of Duluth has gone through a resurgence.  On the corner near where the train depot used to stand is what appears to be a refurbished gas station – roll up bay doors and all. Now most all of this was built in the last two years, but […]

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 […]

Spiced Right Ribhouse Barbecue – Suwanee, GA

Eons ago, when my office was in Stone Mountain, I used to eat at the Spiced Right location in Lawrenceville.  It was part of a regular rotation with Matthews Cafeteria (along with several other places that no longer exist).  As the office moved north, first to Norcross, then to Duluth, Spiced Right grew further from […]

Boudreaux’s Cafe Acadiana – Duluth, GA

For the last several years, one of my favorite lunch spots near the office was Boudreaux’s Seafood on Buford Highway.  It was a seafood market, that also served a great lunch.   The guy that owns it is Cajun-born-and-bred (actually a Loyola-schooled tax lawyer) who years ago went looking for a good po-boy in Atlanta and […]

Honey Pig – Duluth, GA

In my never-ending quest to visit as many of Atlanta’s 50 Best Restaurants (according to Atlanta Magazine last summer), before a new list comes out, this week’s adventure took me to the Honey Pig, in Duluth. First off, I didn’t have nearly the issues that I had with the language at Myong Ga Won so […]

Myung Ga Won – Duluth, GA

In one of the summer editions of Atlanta magazine, they named Myung Ga Won as one of the fifty best restaurants in Atlanta.  One day last week, I was heading out to lunch alone and thought I’d give it a try.  Walking in was just like going into Moe’s, except that everyone yelled at me […]
