Today’s lunch at Acre was spurred by Southern Living’s “best restaurants in the South list” from 2014 (of which I keep a copy on my phone – who doesn’t) and a desire to get out of town for the day. Looking at options, I realized we could be in Auburn in less than 90 minutes from […]
Woo Nam Jeong Stone Bowl House is another place that had been on my radar for a decade, but one that I never seemed to make it to. Not being the biggest fan of Korean food, these restaurants tend to get pushed aside for something else, when I am in the area. It is in […]
Our first attempt at dinner at the Ticonderoga Club was the weekend of the Inman Park Festival. But when we arrived, Krog Street Market had “sold” all their parking places to the festival. And they wanted $20 to allow us to park there (although KSM merchants could validate your parking and you could get $10 […]
Another day roaming alone for lunch, another new place. Today, I was actually heading to Masterpiece, as I hadn’t been in almost two weeks, when I noticed another Chinese restaurant in the same strip mall. Walking down to Xin’s Chinese Cuisine, they had carry out menus by the outside door, so I grabbed one and […]
We were dining several months back and asked our waiter where he liked to eat when he wasn’t working. One of his answers surprised me – Ah Ma’s Taiwanese Kitchen, in Midtown. I wrote down the name (and hid it in my heart). I had seen it before, but it had never really registered. […]
Heading to Nashville for a day of meandering and food, we were heading to my favorite “guitar store” on the planet, Carter Vintage Guitar. I have had Arnold’s Country Kitchen on my list for several years, since they appeared in Garden-N’-Gun’s “50 Best Southern Foods” in the fall of 2011, and was surprised to find […]
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.
Pho Dai Loi 2 is another place that has been on “the list” for almost ten years. Pho Dai Loi (implied 1) is in Jonesboro and there is a Pho Dai Loi 3 in Duluth, but I can’t find anything only that declares an affiliation. But number “2” is the one that I’ve been supposed […]
On this Saturday, heading across the city, I was craving a burger. We had not been to the Earl, in close to ten years,. In fact, we had not been since the WSJ article that proclaimed the glory of Atlanta burgers, crowning the Ghetto Burger at Ann’s Snack Bar the best in the country. Our […]
