Humble Pie – Atlanta, GA

I’ll start this review off with a statement – this restaurant is cashless.  This is a (sadly, not) new trend, that I will begin to track. Some places are great about letting you know their payment policies, others not so much so, so I’ll be adding that upfront to future reviews and updating older ones […]

D Boca N Boca – Atlanta, GA

This restaurant “does not accept cash”. It took almost three years for D Boca N Boca to open.  And I’ve been watching the space for most of that time.  You see, I’m a sucker for authentic Mexican food.  Don’t get me wrong – I’ve got nothing against well done strip-mall “Dos-Burros-Amigos-Fiesta-Loco” Americanized-Mexican food, but that’s […]

Slim & Husky’s

Several months ago, there was an article about the best pizzas in the ATL and Nashville-based Slim + Husky’s appeared on it, and to me. Like everything else that catches my stomach’s eye, I put it on “the list” and waited for the right time. So, on a drive home on Friday evening, I ordered […]

The first Atlanta Michelin guide has arrived!

Here’s a great recap article from Eater Atlanta. And below are links to our visit to 3 of the 5 awarded a star (the other two are on “the list”. Atlas Bacchanalia – wow! This was over a decade ago! Hayakawa

Firewall – Atlanta, GA

In a recent Facebook tease for the best pizza in Atlanta, a couple of a new (to me) places appeared. So, when my beloved said “why don’t you bring something home for dinner?”, that list popped into my mind. Realizing that Firewall was right off 20, a decision was made. From their website, it was […]

The Bando – Atlanta, GA

For the last several months, one of my co-workers has asked, “Have you been to the Bando, yet?” And, every time she does, I remember reading about them on a list of “best wings in the ATL” and having to reply, “not yet.”  But today was THE day. We had been up in Cumming early […]

Bon Ton – Atlanta, GA

After an afternoon at Top Golf with our daughter and son-in-law, followed by some shopping, since we were already in town, it was time to head home. The original plan was to pick up some barbecue on the southside of 20, but, by not paying attention to Atlanta sports schedules, we found ourselves stuck in […]

Northern China Eatery – Doraville, GA

Late last year, Atlanta Magazine published a list of the 75 “Best Restaurants” and gave me 30+ places we hadn’t been, to try. We were heading back across town and I gave my beloved two cuisines to choose from (Asian or Latin). Yes, this was a broad choice, particularly as we were pulling off 285 […]

How Crispy Express – Atlanta

After the grouper sandwich search found at FishMonger, the next sandwich on the list was from How Crispy Express. This former pop up, now in a storefront in Summerhill is just across the patio from Wood’s Chapel. I’ve seen the signage several times but never gone in. I’ve also browsed the menu on-line, several times, […]

Fishmonger – Atlanta, GA

Everywhere I’ve looked for the last several months, there’s been a social media reference to Fishmonger and their blackened grouper sandwich. The mention that put them on “my list” was their inclusion on the 2022 edition of Atlanta Magazine’s best restaurants list. This afternoon we were doing some Christmas shopping in town around lunchtime. I […]
