Every spring, for the last twenty-something years, I head to a conference in Washington, DC. As with every other adventure I take, there’s always planning around the Omnivore’s Dilemna. Last year, I tried to get to a restaurant that was new to the scene in 2014 and has been named the second best restaurant in […]
Several months back, there was an article on Eater.com about interesting burgers in Atlanta. Ssam Burger, on Defoors Ferry popped up. I had not heard about it, but with our love of the Korean / taco fusion at Hankook, why wouldn’t we like a Korean / burger place? Located in a strip center, next […]
Looking for a place for lunch with a friend for his birthday, he mentioned that there was a new “best burger” (from early February, 2017, voting from Access Atlanta) in town that he had read about – at 1910 Public House in Lilburn. Our decision was made for us. Traveling into old town Lilburn, the […]
I had been intending on trying Bread & Butterfly for quite a while – ever since they popped onto my radar with Atlanta magazine’s best restaurants of 2016 early last year, in fact. A European-style bistro and cafe, it is from chef Billy Allin (of Cakes & Ale), and located in the fairly new Inman […]
Our daughter and son-in-law had told us about how good the breakfast and dinner were at Rising Sons a month or two back. When we were near Avondale Estates around dinner time, I made a bee line for the Tudor inspired downtown. Located just down the street from Pallolaville, there seems to be quite […]
For years, my dad and mom had a couple of friends that, on a random afternoon, would drive up and say, “Y’all want to go to Buckner’s?” And off they went – to Jackson (about an hour south of the Atlanta airport), for fried chicken that has been served up, along side I-75, for almost […]
As I didn’t get around to posting this timely and I can’t remember all the details of the meal, I’m now posting this restaurant as a photo blog.
After an attempt to eat a burger at a place recommended by a friend (even though I had called them on Friday and asked if they were open on New Years’ Day – she must have answered for New Years’ Eve), we were looking for another option. From the list I found a recommendation from […]
Not realizing that there was a free New Year’s Eve concert in downtownNashville, we headed down to Broadway to grab some lunch. That explained the cordoned off streets and exorbitant parking (at noon). We found a paid lot next to the Ryman and walked down to Broadway in the drizzle. We turned the corner past […]
As I was heading to meet some folks in Vinings, I went back to the well of the original list, once again, and looked at the options. I found that Sushi Huku was on the list and on the way. While it has a Sandy Springs address, it is right there at Akers Mill and Powers Ferry […]
