I didn’t realize until earlier this week that Minero was Sean Brock’s restaurant. I’m a huge fan of his cooking and thought that a meal at this outpost of his Charleston Mexican restaurant would be a great lunch to start the new year. We met our daughter and son-in-law at Ponce City Market […]
Sometime last month, I saw an online article from Atlanta Magazine about a new Latin restaurant that had opened (or was about to open) in Smyrna, Porch Light Latin Kitchen.* Always excited when something new opens OTP on the west side, I googled their website and saved it in my phone. I’ve thought about going […]
Steakhouses generally result in dark photos for me, and Kevin Rathbun Steak was no exception. I’ll apologize in advance for the quality of the photos. This post actually ties together two visits, more than one thousand days apart. The first visit was for an anniversary dinner in 2012, and is all of the photos […]
One of my co-workers has invited me several times to join him at I Luv Pho and, not being the biggest pho fan, I’ve passed. Today, he mentioned it again and I asked the question I should have asked the first time – “Do they have anything other than pho?” The answer was a resounding […]
I’ve eaten at OK Cafe several times, over the years, most often for breakfast. Back in January of 2015, Atlanta Magazine named their burger as one of the top twenty in the city and I felt compelled to try one. By the time the article came out, they had experienced a fire (in December […]
If you’ve followed our adventures for a while, you know that I fell in love with Nashville hot chicken back in 2013. Since that first visit to Prince’s, we’ve been back there three times and tried it in several places here. I didn’t realize that I wasn’t the only one involved in this love affair. […]
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.
One of the other places on the “hot chicken” list, since before we went to Prince’s, was Bolton’s Spicy Chicken and Fish. But the thing here is about the fish, not the chicken. Sadly, the storefront above is their “old” building, as there is a relatively new building out back. Inside the new building, there’s […]
One of my buddies sent me an email the other morning from Atlanta Magazine about Xelapan Cafeteria, telling me that we needed to try the place. The review pegged it as my kind of place – the menu is not in English and there may or may not be somewhere there to interpret it […]
On the way to get my (current) favorite nachos in the world last week, I noticed a parking lot full of pickups in front of a building that was formerly a Dairy Queen. That (the number of trucks, not the closed Dairy Queen) is always such a promising sign. Driving back, I saw the sign […]
