Meat Week Series Continues April 22-28 with ‘Beef Week’

“What is it with this city? I need to write a letter to the Chamber of Commerce.” – Gil Pender in Midnight in Paris

I first learned of “The Meat Week Boucherie Dinner” series when it launched back in February with ‘Wild Game Week’. It turns out, this was a returning series of four-course dinners featuring whole-animal cookery.  Intrigued, I waited for the launch of ‘Veal Week’ in late March to see what it was all about. Plus, any excuse for me to enjoy BLT’s famed popovers is always a good idea.

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.

DO Try This At Home: Gluten & Dairy Free Chips ‘n Dip

August 28, 2011 | Category: Local Love and Recipes | by Sarah-Ann - 0 Comments

Homemade treats that anyone can enjoy…

One of our good blogger friends @ATLCeliacGirl is seriously allergic to both gluten and dairy. Have you ever tried to find things to eat that are free of both? I’ve tried. It’s not easy. Don’t even get me started on finding options at a restaurant. The food might be gluten & dairy free, but did they cook it in a pan that previously had either of those things in it? Yeah, that makes a difference and can cause serious problems for someone with the disease. So it’s been a fun adventure coming up with healthy alternatives to food favorites with her in the kitchen, including this easy to make, lick-the-bowl-clean good dip.

Do you have to, do you have to let it linger? Why, yes.

Efficient partygoers know how to fulfill all their debaucherous needs in one place. Settle in for dinner first, then head over to the party side of the joint and get your groove on.

No. 246 An Italian Food Symphony

July 17, 2011 | Category: Reviews | by Sarah-Ann - 0 Comments

un’esperienza bella cena…

As a former Park Slope, NY resident, I can attest to the fact that Brooklyn is practically perfection. Quaint shops, talented artists, pre-war brownstones and of course, incredible food. So when I moved to Atlanta, I needed to find my fix. A neighborhood that embodied all those things, and reminded me of home. But most importantly, that could replace my food cravings. Once you’ve been to Al Di La, you’ll understand what I mean. So when Chefs Ford Fry and Drew Belline announced the opening of No. 246 in Decatur, my interest was piqued.
