One of my co-workers asked me if I had been to Hot Dog Pete’s, which had opened in July of 2020. I’d never heard of it, which immediately made it interesting. So on a Sunday afternoon, as we discussed what we might want for lunch, I suggested a quick run down to Summer Hill to […]

Great Sichuan – Duluth, GA (Quick Bite)
In early July, I saw a review of Great Sichuan in the AJC, a relatively new Szechuan restaurant in John’s Creek. They serve both Chinese-American and Szechuan dishes.
