While the Buddha’s Away, HD1 Will Play

I’m Left Coasting it for a little bit longer and time doesn’t stop for those of us kicking back.  Meanwhile in Atlanta, HD1, the hot dog experiment with a heavy hand from Richard Blais, opened late last week in Poncey-Highland.  So while you all wait patiently for my return and initial visit, I thought I’d …

The Corner Food Stand And The Fried Snickers – Atlanta, GA [Food Finds]

I’m not sure anything excites a foodnatic more than the promise of the unknown.  Case in point: A few moons ago, a drive down W. Marietta invoked smoking brakes and a hard left turn (Ahhh… that’s where my ABS went!).  Not 5-minutes after B-Smooth and I had finished stuffing the camel at Carver’s, we found …

The West Egg Cafe Adds Dinner Service

  The West Egg, that popular Westside Atlanta breakfast joint, is now doing dinner.  Having moved just a short while ago into fancy new digs, the restaurant has decided to expand their hours of operation.  (They’re just a hop skip and jump away from their old location).  The restaurant is now open from 7am-10pm Monday thru …

Atlanta Bloggers Descend On LeVigne Restaurant At Montaluce Winery

This past weekend, I was coaxed out of my slumber for a day of debauchery.  Actually, that’s a bit of an overstatement.  The reality is that I (@foodiebuddha) was invited to a little foodie event (The Wine Conclave) at Montaluce Winery and then followed that up with a night cap of Preppy.  Unfortunately, no acts …

Canoe …

Atlanta’s Best Chef Blogs

Let’s keep this short but sweet.  Atlanta is full of foodies, full of bloggers, and full of foodies who blog. (I’m looking at you ChowDownAtlanta.com, EatBufordHighway.wordpress.com, EatDrinkMan.blogspot.com, EatItAtlanta.com, TheQuickandDirtyDirty.com, SavoryExposure.com)  The list goes on from there (this is where you take a look at my blogroll about halfway down the page), but those are just …

Carroll Street Cafe: A Cabbagetown Hot Spot In Pictures

Admittedly, I’m not the biggest fan of Carroll Street Cafe.  Still, if anyone can make the place more appealing, it’s @savoryexposure.  Check out his latest post on the Cabbagetown favorite.  If that’s not enough, check out a couple of pictures from Flickr!, which is where I stole borrowed the one above from 😉 Technorati Tags: …

Greg Best Of Holeman And Finch: One Of America’s Best Mixologists

Greg Best just made Playboy.  Don’t worry folks, Greg doesn’t appear in his skimpies.  No, in this case, Mr. Best was just named one of Playboy’s 10-best mixologists.  A co-owner of my favorite watering hole, Best is a certifiable drink geek!  He’s friendly as hell and awesome at what he does … two things that …
