I first read about Zarzour’s Cafe in Hamburger America, four or five years ago when I got my first copy of the first edition of the book, and added it to my list then. It had always been a matter of timing: they’re open M-F 11:00-3:30 and I was always only either: a) driving through […]
(A quick review): Looking for a place to meet a couple of folks for lunch in-town, I pulled up their work address on the map, zoomed in and checked out the restaurants in close proximity. White Oak Kitchen & Cocktails showed up. The name had been on my radar for a couple of months, so […]
I remember reading about Crepe Revolution last spring, in the Atlanta Magazine Cheap Eats edition, and had put it on “the list”, but had never made it by for a meal. Today when we were making a brunch/lunch choice, with a later shopping destination in Marietta, was the perfect opportunity. Located right off 285 on […]
I’d heard about Nick’s Food to Go for several years, likely starting with a rerun episode of “Georgia Eats” on PBS one night. I’d even driven by it a couple of times this week (at the corner of Hill and MLK) in the morning on the way to work, trying to find my way around […]
I hadn’t been to Front Page News in years, when I set up a meeting downtown with a fellow from Newnan. We were going to split the distance between our offices and he suggested that we meet there. Years ago, when we first started our in-town eating adventures, Front Page News (the one in Little […]
A couple of weeks back, one of my co-workers went to the new location of Which Wich? which had opened semi-behind our office. He had said that the sandwich was good and he was really impressed with how they made the sandwich. I had stopped by to try it last week and the line was […]
I remember hearing about the opening of Shaun Doty (formerly of Shaun’s / currently of Yeah Burger) and Lance Gummere’s (formerly of the Shed at Glenwood) Bantam + Biddy some months back, but had forgotten about it until I read an article about Scoutmob’s anticipated 2013 restaurant openings. They’re opening another organic local-poultry place at […]
Heading downtown for what, ultimately, turned out to be a non-existent event, I was torn, once again, with the question, “What do I want to eat?” My first instinct was for a box of hot Krispy Kreme glazed donuts, but reason prevailed and I determined I needed “real” food. So there I was, on Ponce […]
About a week ago, after church when we had zero chance of getting there before the crowds, it occurred to me just how long it had been since we had been to Holeman & Finch Public House for their fabulous burgers, so we made plans to go today. When we arrived about 11:15 (they open […]
Looking back, I can’t believe that I haven’t written about Six Feet Under. We used to eat there quite regularly, at the original location across from Oak Lawn Cemetery (hence the name), in Grant Park. A couple of years back they moved down the street (Tin Lizzy is in their old location) into new digs […]
