Wonderful World Burgers & More Opens In Emory Village

Wonderful World Burgers & More, a chain from those behind Tin Drum Café, has opened in Emory Village.  Unlike some other burger joints to show up Atlanta during the past year, WW seems focused on a more straightforward take on the American classic.  However, I did notice a “teri-mayo” hot dog on the menu (pdf) …

The Burger Lounge Becomes The Burger Club [Still Not Open]

On the 10th, I ran a post about an upcoming burger joint from Paul Albrecht and his Great Food Inc. restaurant group.  Turns out, the restaurant has already gone through a name change.  What was once the Burger Lounge is now The Burger Club.  Yeah, not the most earth shattering blurb ever, but it is …

Busy Weekend: Topped Off With A Visit To Staplehouse

A few months ago, I was turned on to a new supper club touted as “Prelude To Staplehouse.”  Since then, Jenifer and Ryan Hidinger have made quite an impression.  As other bloggers begin to catch wind of this thang, I myself am getting in on the fun.  I’m off to see what this couple has …

What’s Up Doc? A New Atlanta Foodie Blog

Another day, another blog.  However, it seems like this one has a little more potential than just your average dude who spouts.  What’s Cooking With Doc is a cooking blog by a gentleman who is not only a doctor, but also a trained chef.  To explain: he used to sling wine and skillets for a …

Something From Atlanta Brewing In DC??? [Things That Make You Go Hmmm]

I’m not sure exactly what to make of this.  However, I thought it was interesting enough that it is worth a mention.  For reasons beyond my scope, a post from January blew up yesterday.  That post talked about Richard Blais’ intentions to bring Flip Burger Boutique to our nations capital.  Roughly 200 unique visitors showed …

Shocking news of the day: the Vortex’s Double Bypass Burger just got more national attention.  The burger, comprised of a patty, five slices of bacon, four slices of cheese, two fried eggs, mayo, lettuce, and onion will arrive at your table in between two grilled cheese sandwiches.  Anywho, as of this writing, the burger sits …

Forget Julie Powell’s Julie And Julia – Bring On Cleaving

There … I’ve done it.  Or in this case, I’m doing it.  I’m giving in to the utter disdain I have for mentioning anything about Julie Powell, that book, her blog, or that damn movie.  I’ll admit – this disdain comes from a complete and total place of ignorance.  I don’t much get the underlying …

Bocado Coming Soon To Atlanta’s Westside

Think we’re in a bad economy? Well you wouldn’t know by the ridiculous amount of restaurants brave enough to pull their heads out of the sand in recent months.  One of the newest to put its name in the competition for restaurant with the biggest set of brass balls is Bocado. Bocado, which translates loosely …

Paul Albrecht is no stranger to the Atlanta dining scene.  A founding member of the Buckhead Life Restaurant Group, he is the purveyor of the namesake Paul’s Restaurant and the newly minted Social Vinings.  Now he and son Patrick, who collectively run the Great Food Inc. restaurant group, are set to open The Burger Lounge …

More Details On Entice A – Upcoming Midtown Tapas Restaurant

A couple of days ago I mentioned that a new tapas restaurant is scheduled to open in Midtown.  At the time, I didn’t know much about it.  The sign on the door told us that it was a Caribbean inspired restaurant and lounge.  Now, we have a bit more of the 411 and a sample …
