In search of culinary Nirvana
Forbes Magazine just published their 30 Under 30 award winners. As the name implies, it’s an award that recognizes youthful excellence in a variety of disciplines. Atlanta’s Kevin Gillespie, who is often times mistaken for Yukon Cornelius, landed a spot on the food & wine section of the list. It’s not much more than a …

Atlanta’s reigning king of comedy, one David Cross, is into food. In fact, his whole family is (sister Wendy Cross runs Atlanta’s WOW Food Truck). Today, Gourmet just posted an interview with the very hilarious Cross. It’s short, it’s sweet, and it’s hilarious. Check it out as he dishes on World Peace, North Korea (spooky …
It seems as if Atlanta’s culinary milieu dictates the popularity of the burger. It’s very much a straight out of Field of Dreams situation, whereby “if you build it, they will come.” So it happens that Burger Tap, Morningside’s brand spanking new restaurant, is serving burgers. Elephant, meet room. Aside from a few blurbs on …

Burger fans have a new spot to visit in the comfortable confines of Morningside (at the northern tip of Virginia-Highland). Burger Tap has officially opened in what was formerly Caramba Café. The menu here is 100% burgers and sides … so don’t go if you’re looking for something dietetic. It’s a really small menu too, …
For this weeks edition of What Was That Ingredient?, Top Chef Texas did the whole game thing and once again attempted to assert its badassness. They first invoked NGT with what basically equated to a 20-minute commercial for Don Julio. Padma quickly asserted that it was an “ultra-premium” tequila. Don’t you just love fluffy, meaningless …
