A Little Bit On Anonymity In Food [Part 1]

The debate between those who wish to remain anonymous (like me) and those hell bent on exposing us rages on.  Seemingly everyday, more and more anonymous journalists, critics, and bloggers are being ousted from their bat caves and into the limelight.  Many, whether they are directly affected or not, seem to have an opinion on …

Krog Bar in Inman Park – Atlanta, GA [Wine Bar Review]

Deep in the backwoods of Inman Park and the Old 4th Ward and tucked away in the corner of the vast Stove Works complex sits a little gem of a wine bar.   Krog Bar, appropriately situated at the foot of Rathbun’s since 2005, serves as one fine place to enjoy an evening. Though a tip …

Lego Star Wars Cupcakes & Cakes [Desserts]

Star Wars + Cupcakes + LEGOs = Happy Buddha.  You probably already realized this a few weeks ago when a great Star Wars Cupcake photo flickered across my stream.  This time we can thank Rachel Manning and her eye-candy littered Flickr stream for this amazing doozey.  Yes folks, those cupcake minifigs [what you might call …

One Eared Stag Restaurant Review – Inman Park, Atlanta, GA [First Impressions]

When my buddy and I first stepped through the emblazed upon glass door at Inman Park’s One Eared Stag, I must say that it was not without both cat-like curiosity and tentative trepidation.  I try not to clutter my mind with lots of advanced research.  In this case, the most important odd and end is …

Feast Noir: Atlanta’s First Rogue Supper Club

Call it a flash mob or perhaps an underground supper club. Whatever the term du jour, Feast Noir (website) is/was a type of gorilla warfare meets civilized tea time under admittedly friendly circumstances.  The Atlanta dinner, which took place last night at Atlantic Station, is a self-admitted homage to the 23-years and running Dîner en …

The Great Food Truck Race: Season 2 Premiers Tonight [RoamingATL]

Tonight (aka August 14th), the Food Network is set to debut season two of The Great Food Truck Race (10/9c on Sundays).  The street food/food truck themed television show rolled through cities across the country just a few short months ago.  After hours in the editing booth, it appears the competition is ready for public …

Grow! Trailer [Food Films]

I like movies, so much so that I call them films.  I’ve made a few (college shorts here people – not Citizen Kane), helped out on a few (Luke Skywalker did leave his pants in my car once), and watched more than my share (I think Best In Show is on an endless loop).  But …

Cheese & Crackers: Star Provisions Cheese of the Month Club [Not For The Feint of Heart]

Star Provisions is getting into the “____-of-the-month-club” business.  While wine shops near and far do this for their grape juice, Star will be offering up cheeses … lots of lots of cheeses.  The name of said club is “Cheese & Crackers” and it is the brainchild of Atlanta’s most notable cheesemonger, one Tim Gaddis. You …

Zagat’s New York City 30 Under 30

This one’s actually a few months old, but seeing as it came out during “The Dark Ages,” I thought I might as well put it up.  The video above is from the party to celebrate Zagat’s list of the best 30 foodies under 30 years of age in New York.  It’s an impressive list, available …
