Originally, I was simply going to make this a “follow up” post on Food, Inc., that recently released food-centric documentary.  However, director Robert Kenner recently showed up on the Daily Show and  word has spread about a neat little event going on right here in Atlanta, Georgia.  So before I get going with the drivel, …

On tonight’s episode of The Best Thing I Ever Ate, you’ll get a chance to see the “Angry Mussels” from JCT Kitchen. [Yes … the same dish that I recently said “squeaks by meekly”]  While I’m not really a huge fan of JCT and yes, I’m over the whole bacon craze, it’s nice when any …

Eat, Drink, Man is an Atlanta blogger dude who has been around longer than I have (me: Dec, 2008 – him: July 2008).  He puts up lots of great content but today’s post was of particular interest.  In a tip of the hat to Anthony Bourdain, EDM reminisces about some of the dinosaurs of the …
