Eat St. Comes to Atlanta

November 11, 2011 | Category: Events | by eat. drink. repeat. - 2 Comments

Atlanta Food Truck scene…it’s time for your close up.

The Atlanta food truck scene has been piping hot for a minute now…this we know. Every week these food trucks descend upon bustling Atlanta neighborhoods to treat the public to their own brand of specialty fare. Menu items that are not only quick and hearty, but are also served out the back of a truck. Classy, right? So we couldn’t have been more happy to find out that the Food Network show Eat St. was putting down stakes in Atlanta for a 5-day stop to feature some of our city’s favorite food trucks.

The “Fancy Pants” Burger at Grindhouse

October 25, 2011 | Category: Reviews | by Casey Horton - 2 Comments

Oh, you fancy, huh?

How do you stand out among a sea of burger joints? Make your burgers special. Each Tuesday brings something new and delicious to Grindhouse when they add a unique addition to their regular menu. Today’s special? A thick, juicy 1/2 pound burger on a fresh baked bun, cooked to any temp (as rare as you want) topped with aged white cheddar, habanero pimento cheese, sliced cornichons, field greens, and a house-made tarragon mustard, served with fresh cut fries and a chipotle honey mustard dipping sauce, all for 10 bucks. If you’re feeling frisky, add on a boozy milkshake and sit on that badass patio of theirs. It’s a perfect score in our book.

Chicken and the Egg

September 29, 2011 | Category: Reviews | by Chris Watkins - 0 Comments

Modern Southern cuisine comes to roost in Marietta.

We typically don’t venture outside the perimeter on our food excursions. With so much variety and an inordinate amount of new restos opening daily, traveling outside of the Midtown/Downtown “safe zone” can be a daunting task. But every once in awhile a place comes along to make gassing up your car and traveling into unchartered territory more worthwhile. Enter Chicken and the Egg, a new modern take on sustainable Southern cuisine in the heart of Marietta.

I Spirit Vodka

September 23, 2011 | Category: Drink Of The Week and Reviews | by Chris Watkins - 0 Comments

Italian vodka…yes, we’re quite serious…

Imagine that you’ve been invited to a traditional Italian dinner. The spread is wrought with artisanal cheeses, breads, meats, and pastas. Basically you’re dining at the Louis Restaurant from The Godfather, sans the murder and violence. The waiter brings out a tall teardrop-shaped bottle of a brilliantly crystal spirit. In utter disbelief that no wine is being served at the Italian feast, you’re even more shocked to find the crystal spirit adorned in a bed of freshly-picked cherry tomatoes, aromatic basil, and assorted wild berries. The waiter explains that this is the I Spirit Vodka tasting experience, and that your world is about to be forever changed.

Neighborhood Discovery: WestSide Midtown

September 16, 2011 | Category: Local Love, Neighborhood Discovery and Round-Ups | by Sarah-Ann - 8 Comments

Movin’ on up… to the WestSide.

Centered around Howell Mill Road between 10th and 17th street, the WestSide is becoming one of the next best kitschy-cool neighborhoods in Atlanta, which rivals (or happily reminds you of) other well-known industrial haunts a la the Meatpacking District in NYC or Soho in London. A great mix of restaurants, shops and bars make this neighborhood a top contender for where the Atlanta elite are now starting to prefer to “see and be seen” and can only mean that the addition of a Starbucks location is inevitable. From the gorgeous Anthropologie and Star Provisions family to the coveted Sid & Ann Mashburn stores, there is something for everyone in this understated part of town. Read on for an inside scoop on some of the best food spots in the area for whatever mood you’re in.
