Six Feet Under – Atlanta, GA
Looking back, I can’t believe that I haven’t written about Six Feet Under. We used to eat there quite regularly, at the original location across from Oak Lawn Cemetery (hence the name), in Grant Park. A couple of years back they moved down the street (Tin Lizzy is in their old location) into new digs […]
Curly’s Fried Chicken – Atlanta, GA – CLOSED
THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED. I saw, several months back that Curly’s Fried Chicken had appeared on the site of the defunct Leroy’s Fried Chicken on Howell Mill. One Saturday while we were roaming around the city, I decided to grab some carry-out for dinner before we headed back to the suburbs. The first thing I […]
Watershed on Peachtree – Atlanta, GA
On a Saturday morning, as we lazed around the house, we decided to head toward the city for brunch. I consulted Open Table looking for a spot, and grabbed a noon table for two at Watershed. We’ve been fans of Watershed for years, but we hadn’t been since they moved downtown. We actually drove by […]
Crystal Beer Parlor – Savannah, GA
In the same Southern Living’s Georgia Living insert that listed their “10 Favorite Burger Spots”, and that sent me to A & A Restaurant & Convenience in Allentown, they mentioned two spots in Savannah, Crystal Beer Parlor and Green Truck Pub. It appeared that the Green Truck was the closest to our travel path, but […]
A&A Restaurant & Convenience – Allentown, GA
As I’ve said before, the genesis of this blog was the quest for the perfect burger. I’m always asking folks, after I meet them, “where is your favorite burger in your home town?”. And people are often sending me links or articles when they hear about a great burger. One of Jo’s friends gave her […]
John’s Biscuit & Pizza – Hiram, GA
Several weeks ago, a friend of ours from Journey Group told me that we needed to try out John’s Biscuits & Pizza. With a name like that, how could it be a bad choice? Sure, you wouldn’t (probably) want biscuits and pizza together (I don’t know that I’ve ever tried it), but, separately? Two perfectly […]
Crawfish Shack Seafood – Atlanta, GA
When a friend and I decided that we were meeting for lunch on Tuesday, he let me pick the place. With his office at Ashford-Dunwoody and mine in Duluth, there isn’t a whole lot that is equi-distant. I remembered seeing something about Crawfish Seafood Shack in Atlanta magazine and in an edition of Marie, Let’s […]
The Spence – Atlanta, GA
As we headed downtown for another wedding shopping venture (IKEA, this time), I saw that we’d be near Richard Blais’ latest enterprise, the Spence. I’ve reviewed a couple of his other places (Flip and HD1) and we decided to give this one a try. The Spence is part of the Concentrics Group, most of which […]
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 […]
Cafe Restaurante Dominicano – Norcross, GA
So another day rolls around and I’m the only member of my lunch crowd that’s “in the office”. Not in the mood for the any of the regular spots, I open up my “lists” to see what is near the office. Every restaurant on the list appears to be Asian and I’m just not in […]
