West Cobb Diner – Marietta, GA
When we called some friends and asked if they wanted to meet for dinner on Friday, they said that they were meeting another couple at West Cobb Diner and asked us to join them. We pulled it up on Google maps and realized that it was right at the corner of 120 and Barrett Parkway […]
Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen – Norcross, GA
I’ve been working in the Norcross / Duluth area for over 20 years. For many of those years, particularly those prior to the opening of the Forum on 141 and the Mall of Georgia, there was a dearth of “nice” restaurants for a business lunch. When they opened Pappadeaux Seafood Kitchen, (back in the early […]
White Oak Kitchen & Cocktails – Atlanta, GA
(A quick review): Looking for a place to meet a couple of folks for lunch in-town, I pulled up their work address on the map, zoomed in and checked out the restaurants in close proximity. White Oak Kitchen & Cocktails showed up. The name had been on my radar for a couple of months, so […]
Table 33 (formerly Crepe Revolution) – Smyrna, GA
I remember reading about Crepe Revolution last spring, in the Atlanta Magazine Cheap Eats edition, and had put it on “the list”, but had never made it by for a meal. Today when we were making a brunch/lunch choice, with a later shopping destination in Marietta, was the perfect opportunity. Located right off 285 on […]
Nick’s Food To Go – Atlanta, GA
I’d heard about Nick’s Food to Go for several years, likely starting with a rerun episode of “Georgia Eats” on PBS one night. I’d even driven by it a couple of times this week (at the corner of Hill and MLK) in the morning on the way to work, trying to find my way around […]
Front Page News – Atlanta, GA
I hadn’t been to Front Page News in years, when I set up a meeting downtown with a fellow from Newnan. We were going to split the distance between our offices and he suggested that we meet there. Years ago, when we first started our in-town eating adventures, Front Page News (the one in Little […]
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 […]
Bantam + Biddy – Atlanta, GA
I remember hearing about the opening of Shaun Doty (formerly of Shaun’s / currently of Yeah Burger) and Lance Gummere’s (formerly of the Shed at Glenwood) Bantam + Biddy some months back, but had forgotten about it until I read an article about Scoutmob’s anticipated 2013 restaurant openings. They’re opening another organic local-poultry place at […]
Eats – Atlanta, GA
Heading downtown for what, ultimately, turned out to be a non-existent event, I was torn, once again, with the question, “What do I want to eat?” My first instinct was for a box of hot Krispy Kreme glazed donuts, but reason prevailed and I determined I needed “real” food. So there I was, on Ponce […]
Holeman & Finch Public House – Atlanta, GA
About a week ago, after church when we had zero chance of getting there before the crowds, it occurred to me just how long it had been since we had been to Holeman & Finch Public House for their fabulous burgers, so we made plans to go today. When we arrived about 11:15 (they open […]
