Frank Ma Discusses The History Of Buford Highway

During some of my intermittent and haphazard internet perusing, I stumbled upon really neat videos by Frank Ma and Eddie Hernandez, two well-known Atlanta chefs.  Ma, who’s followed like a hawk by Atlanta’s Chinese gastronomes, recently sat down to talk about his arrival in the dirty South and the burgeoning food center that runs the …

The Battle For Milkquarious [Laugh of The Day]

As I work through the daily grind, waiting to get back on the hobby horse, I though I’d treat y’all to some rocktastic awesomeness.  Thank Goodby Silverstein for this milktastic sampling and big shout out to Rob (who does cool pictures!) for the tip!  It’s a viral marketing campaign that takes the Got Milk! slogan …

The Making of The Ghetto Burger At Ann’s Snack Bar [Burger Porn Videos]

All this Atlanta burger chatter got me thinking: “Maybe it’s time for a diet.”  Then, I got a late night request from The Legend (twitter) which brought me to my senses.  Yes, maybe just one more day of gluttony (haven’t we all said that?). You see, The Legend was taking a few people for a …

Chang, who has …

Dan Barber On Sustainable Fishing At Ted.com

It’s been a while since I last mentioned Dan Barber, the über talented chef/owner of Blue Hill & Blue Hill Farms.  The first time I brought Dan up on this blog, he was chatting up ethical foie gras.  The video in that post came from Ted.com, one of the best websites out there for video …

Peter Chang Returns To Atlanta, Pit Stop At Tasty China

Peter Chang is easily the most talked about Chinese chef over the past few years to plant a flag in Atlanta.  His work is a thing of legend and is the single biggest reason Tasty China caught the attention of so many Chinese food fanatics (myself included).  According to Tom Maicon of Atlanta Cuisine, Chang …

INC Street Food Restaurant Review – Roswell, GA [First Impressions]

The newly incorporated INC Street Food in Roswell has already garnered a good bit of attention.  That’s no surprise considering that the Canton St. Latin eatery is a project from the gang at nearby Salt Factory Pub, a fairly well known establishment in its own right.  Owners Hicham Azhari and Fikret Kovac have teamed again …
