This is just a quick little get up for ya’ll. I’m heading out the door for a business trip and haven’t had time to finish writing either of my two latest reviews. I hope to have at least one of them ready to post by the time I land. In the meantime, here’s a quick …

Yesterday, pops and I took a trip over to Atmosphere Bistro on the outskirts of the Morningside neighborhood in Atlanta. Open roughly 7-years, they have long served one of my favorite brunches here in the city. Given the price point, the atmosphere (no pun intended), and the service – I find little to complain about …
Hope ya’ll had a pleasant weekend. I know I did. As you might expect, the past few days have left me worn down and fried. So, rather than pen a full review, first impression, or the like, I have decided to hit ya’ll up with some quick notes about some recent goings-on in the ATL.
Last week, a few of us got together for some lunch at Taqueria El Rey Del Taco. It seems almost like clockwork: once every handful of months, an Atlanta food blogger heads over to Buford Highway to grab some of ERDT’s lauded tacos. Last week was my turn.
Open roughly four years (at least by my count), Co’m Vietnamese Grill has become one of the de facto responses to the question: “Where do I go in Atlanta for good Vietnamese?” It is therefore no surprise that this BuHi hotspot now has a devout following and a satellite location.
Sorry for the dearth of posts lately. I had family in from out of town; thus, my free time was pretty much usurped the past five days. Luckily, we got in a couple of noteworthy food stops … no small feat with my little brother – the kid has a seriously restricted palate. What the …

Despite our swelling population, Atlanta is still very much a small town. Word travels quick, and every foodie and their mother seem to flock to each newly minted restaurant. While Livingston has already attracted several bloggers, not many of us have chatted it up. Atlanta is steeped in tradition. Underneath the new, there is always …

Nam is the Vietnamese restaurant concept from brother’s Alex and Chris Kinjo. (Alex seems to man this location more than Chris). You might recognize the brothers Kinjo; they have a knack for opening high-brow Asian restaurants around the city. In addition to Nam, the Kinjo’s own MF Sushi Bar and MF Buckhead. True to form, …

A good burger isn’t hard to find … a great burger is! Somewhat out of character for us, Atlanta actually has it’s fair share of top notch burger joints. While the best burger in town is a hotly debated topic, the usual suspects always seem to end up in the discussion. Holeman & Finch’s “Down …
