Cafe At Pharr In Buckhead: Atlanta Sub & Sandwich Tour #13

Café at Pharr in Buckhead has been around for a long time.  Soon after the Braves were cheated out of a World Series victory by Kent Hrbek [yeah – I’m talking to you!!!], this place opened (circa 1992).  I actually remember eating here inside their first month of operation.  What a cute little foodie I …

A Night Of Gatsby: The Souper Jenny Underground Dinner Club [Great Finds]

I was apprehensive to say the least.  High-brow, underground supper clubs strike a strange cord with me.  On the one hand, it’s kind of cool to hit up a private event that requires a trip to the piggy bank.  On the other hand, there is something snob-elitish about events that come with a $150 price …

Livingston Restaurant Review: Best At Disappointing – Midtown, Atlanta, GA [First Impressions]

Grovel … grrrr … harrumph.  Why do you do it to me?  You show so much promise, invoke so much potential, and yet … when it’s all said and done, I feel like I just gave $15 to one of those unmentionables hanging on the corner of Ponce & Blvd.  At the end of the …

On The Burner: Myung Ga Won And Omakase At MF Buckhead

Yesterday was a culinary gold medal for me.  First up was lunch at Myung Ga Won, one of the best Korean barbecue joints in the city.  Dinner was an off the hook meal at MF Buckhead.  We managed to score a pair of seats to one of Chris Kinjo’s omakase meals at MF Buckhead.  Truly …

La Pietra Cucina’s Facelift

Midtown’s La Pietra Cucina recently underwent a major renovation.  The restaurant has expanded its seating, closed off the kitchen, and finally posted a website, albeit just a landing page.  While I’m not going to talk too much about the changes, one thing has DEFINITELY bummed me out.  Apparently, they no longer offer their seasonal risotto …

License To Chill: How Many Licks Does It Take To Get To The Center Of Daniel Craig (Popsicle) [Laugh Of The Day]

Hey ladies, this one is for you!  Many a woman that I know would love to get a chance at Daniel Craig tied to that chair.  Apparently, Del Monte Superfruit Smoothies have answered their prayers.  Recently, the company ran a poll.  They asked more than 1000 women which celeb they’d like to see in their …

D.B.A. Barbecue Goes Live In Virginia Highlands, Atlanta, GA [First Impressions]

There’s a new meat slinger in town, and they are “Doing Business As” a barbecue joint.  Last night, I was chilling in ViHi, so we ambled over to D.B.A. Barbecue.  Turns out, D.B.A. Barbecue actually opened to the public this past evening.  I was under the impression this was week two for them, so that …

Shoya Izakaya: No Lunch Yet & More Info In A Bit

Shoya Izakaya opened late last month to a good bit of fan fare.  I’ve been once (but haven’t chatted it up yet), Kessler dropped in, and Eat, Drink, Man quickly shared his thoughts.  Shoya has already given Miso Izakaya more than it can handle.  While MI seems to be failing (only just now obtaining a …
