Experience the Essence of Southern Brazil at Chama Gaúcha

The dining experience described below was complimentary. When I’m looking for a place to dine in the vast sea of options around the Atlanta area, I tend to lean more towards places with poultry, seafood and vegetable options. I’m not a heavy red meat or pork eater so I found it easy to look past…

Winding Down at Princi Italia

This morning I was sitting on the train thinking about a dinner I shared with fellow bloggers at Princi Italia, located in one of Midtown’s trendy dining districts. As I looked out the window, watching the city wake from it’s slumber, music from the Lianne La Havas Pandora Station streamed beautiful mellow tunes sending me...

Kabob Land: A Fast-Casual Taste of the Middle East

You ever wake up on a Sunday morning with plans and a stopwatch? You know..breakfast at 8am, church at 11, late lunch at 2:30 or early dinner at say 3 o’clock? I’m so accustomed to that kind of scheduling during the work week that I had to pause for a bit and just let the day...

Signature Tastes of Atlanta and Pear Crumble Tart

Yesterday felt like one of those lazy Sundays when all you want to do is sit back and read, watch movies or nap. Instead of doing any of that I decided to take a trip to the farmers market to buy some pears so I could try one of the recipes in Steven Siler’s latest cookbooks,...

Marlow’s Tavern Winter Menu Tasting

Last Wednesday I met with a few ladies from the Atlanta Food Blogger’s Society for a Winter Menu Tasting at Marlow’s Tavern located in Midtown. We tried a variety of appetizers and desserts from a menu that seems to surprisingly yet delightfully fall outside of the traditional “tavern food” category. For example, pictured above is...

Atlanta Downtown Restaurant Week 2014

Yesterday was the start of Downtown Atlanta Restaurant Week, an opportunity for diners to enjoy prix-fixe signature menus at some of the area’s dining hot spots. The menus range in price from $15, $25 and $35 with brunch, lunch and dinner options. I received an invite to attend a social media walking taste tour which included three participating restaurants. As it turns out, a progressive experience like this is a great way to explore the city and its food scene.

Shula’s 347 Grill: a Brunch at Dusk Event

Having brunch with family or friends during the weekend is a special treat, however, choosing where to grab that late morning bite can sometimes be challenging. That’s when having a “go to” list can be handy. I have such a list and on it is Shula’s 347 Grill. Here’s why…

Blue Ridge Grill: Rediscover an Atlanta Classic

I am an Atlanta native and despite having lived here for the majority of my life, I have not had an opportunity to know and fully appreciate landmark restaurants like Blue Ridge Grill until recent years. A few days ago, I was fortunate enough to experience this Atlanta classic via a Media Tasting Event. Every...

Veni Vidi Vici: A Wish Fulfilled

A little more than 15 years ago I worked in a Midtown office located within walking distance from Veni Vidi Vici, an Italian restaurant which was a favorite destination of some of my coworkers. It seemed so elegant. I wanted so badly to dine there as well but, at the time, it was little outside...
