Holeman & Finch Public House – Atlanta, GA

Late in the summer of 2010, I kept hearing stories of the “secret” burgers that only appeared on the menu at Holeman & Finch Public House at 10:00 pm.  And that they only made 24 per night.  And that they sold out EVERY night. ((the Legend).   I began plotting a way to end up there […]

Daddy Dz BBQ Joint – Atlanta, GA

The first time we went, there was virtually no seating – one butcher block table that seated 12 – 16 and some seats around the windows. […]
