In search of culinary Nirvana
I don’t know how the heck I missed this! Domo, aka Domo-Kun, is an internet sensation and TV mascot (from Japan). In a moment of promotional awesomeness, 7-11, Dark Horse Comics, and Tokyopop got together and came up with one sweet promotion. The group launched a plethora of Domo-branded items (including the famous Slurpee) and …

A little over a week ago, as I scuttled home from the office, I took an unusual turn down Hemphill Ave. Traffic was thick, and I like to keep moving. So down the side streets I went and as I peeled off of Northside Dr, I noticed that Jaqbo Bakery & Café had a whole …
Adam (aka guest blogger dude) and I were milling around the Westside a few days ago looking for a place to eat lunch at. Having spent the previous day gut busting around, I had a hankering for some sushi. A cheerful banter arose, so back and forth we went until Adam suggested Zen on Ten, …

The hits just keep coming. Though this actually happened a few weeks ago, I somehow managed to miss it. Wolfgang Puck Express pulled an Emeril’s and said buh-bye to Atlanta. This leaves the city with one less celebrity chef restaurant and the ground floor of the Brookwood Place complex dangerously close to empty (at least …

I’m not even going to get into any of the who/what/where/why or any of that junk. This is just a little point of clarification for any of you who actually read my blog. I have a yelp account and if I say something on Yelp it will tie to the profile that is located at …
Part hookah bar/part Turkish food center/part good-time emporium, Café Istanbul has remained a centerpiece of Atlanta’s Mediterranean culinary community for some time. With my close proximity to Imperial Fez/Ibiza and Divan, and my own stash of shisha, I’ve never had much of a reason to head on up Hwy 78. Motivation factors aside, a visit …

It’s a busy couple of days in the real world for one Foodie Buddha. So while I didn’t have the time or energy in the past 12-hours to write my post on Café Istanbul, I did want to stop in for this quick little tidbit. The writer responsible for Blog Soup is packing up and …
