Tunisian Spicy Tuna @ Alon’s

Tunisian Spicy Tuna on Ciabatta

Mixed with a fine dice of potato, capers, and red onion, this tuna dressed with olive oil stood the test of time (a wait of at least 30 minutes before we were able to devour it) . If anything, we believe it might […]

Huy’s Sandwiches

The Combination

Chloe of Chow Down Atlanta first wrote about Huy’s Sandwich Shop here on February 25, 2011. One glimpse of their coconut pandan waffles guaranteed a visit. Not long after, a list of the top 7 bánh mì sandwich shops appeared on Chow Down Atlanta. We knew […]

Banana Pudding Milkshake (Chick-fil-a)

Chick-fil-a’s Banana Pudding Milkshake

We hate to admit it. But, in our weaker moments, we’re known to partake in a fast food milkshake or two. There are a handful that have grown to resemble a sort of quasi-not-quite love. But, it’s a fairly strong like. Chick-fil-a’s mint chip, […]

Lemon Ginger Sugar Cookie

Sometimes they’re a bit crispy…

Lemon Ginger Sugar Cookie

Crazy Ron’s BBQ

Rib Plate with Mac & Cheese and Collard Greens

Tender, smoky and full of flavor… what more could you ask for in your bbq’d ribs? The baked mac & cheese had plenty of toasty brown cheesy bits and collards had that distinctive old-fashioned style bitterness.

Pretzel Bagels

Einstein Bros. Pretzel Bagels

It’s been years since we’ve wandered into an Einstein Bros. The lure of a pretzel bagel instigated a visit. The heavily salted pretzels are quite tasty. But, there is a doughiness to Einstein’s bagels that keeps them from being truly crave-worthy. We also tried […]

El Pastorcito

Chorizo, Al Pastor, & Lengua Tacos

Devoured at light speed… The al pastor and lengua (tongue) were fabulous.

Diablo Shrimp

These shrimp were a good size. And, as you can see, the serving was beyond generous. There was good amount of heat in the deep […]

Mi Pilon

Roast pork, fried plantains & black beans with rice

Tender roast pork with richly flavored pan juices and fried ripe plantains with crispy caramelized bits… beyond yummy.

Braised beef with black beans and rice

The beef was a bit too salty. But, that won’t stop […]
