We’ve been working our way through Atlanta Magazine’s list of the twenty best burgers, on and off, since it was published in January. Tonight, we’re knocking off one of our two remaining places in the top ten, Steinbeck’s Ale House in Oakhurst, tonight. This selection was based on a combination of location and […]
To preface this post: I’ve followed this story for years and I recap part of that story below. It has made for a long post, so stick with me. But if you don’t want to read it all, I’ll cut to the chase – it’s really good. You should go. Sometimes you wait a while for […]
Several months back, on a routine trip through Buckhead, I saw the sign for a barbecue restaurant, Lovie’s BBQ, that I had never seen before. As you turn left off Lenox Road onto Piedmont, you pass by Chipotle and Naan Stop and the entrance sign for this place. It’s around back and down the hill, […]
Back in January, I saw that Old 4th Ward Pizza had opened in, you guessed it, the Old 4th Ward, in the Irwin Street Market. They make grandma-style pizza and appear to be the only folks in town making that kind of pizza. By the name, one would guess that it’s pizza like your grandma […]
Meeting our youngest for a Friday lunch, she suggested a taqueria near her husband’s school that they had found from a list of the best tacos in town. Of course, I agreed. So off to Taqueria San Pancho, I headed. It’s in a small strip mall, near the corner of Jimmy Carter/Mountain Industrial Boulevard and […]

I’ve had Fred’s Texas Cafe on my list for a long time, with the sentence, in the description, that said “is the kind of place you take that new boyfriend or girlfriend to see if they can deal with it. If they can, they’re a keeper. It’s a complete dive, but the burgers are wonderful”. […]
Heading to the Texas state fair, we landed at DFW with a shopping destination on my beloved’s mind. I, on the other hand, was thinking of food. This should not be a shock to anyone that knows me. I opened the Texas Monthly Barbecue Finder (this is a great app – if you like barbecue […]
For the last couple of months, I’ve been meaning to get to OddBird, the restaurant within a restaurant serving dinner in the West Egg space. There were a couple of hindrances – it is dinner only and only open Wednesday – Saturday. But I was drawn in by two words: “hot chicken”. Hot chicken is […]
Finally, Ponce City Market is (sort of / mostly) open. At least, some of the food places and stores are. Over last weekend our daughter sent us a text from H&F Burger, along with a survey of what was open. So when Friday night rolled around and we were headed to dinner with another […]
