Shorty’s Pizza

The Peter Tosh

The Peter Tosh is a white pie topped with jerked pork, pineapple, red pepper, an extra sprinkle of jerk spices and plenty of fresh cilantro leaves. It’s so good… period.

We’ll happily eat this tasty pie any […]

Bavarian Rye @ YDFM

Your Dekalb Farmer’s Market Bavarian Rye

We’re still not in love with the bakery section at YDFM. But, they’ve added a few new (and a few other new-ish) baked goods that we do enjoy. This Bavarian rye is one of them. This loaf was a bit too moist. […]

The General Muir — Bagels

The General Muir’s Sesame Bagel

We would have preferred poppy. But, beggars can’t be choosers. Even after an early lunch, the bagels were almost gone by the end of our meal. So, go early!

What separates a good bagel from a great bagel? […]

The General Muir

The Cortado

A pleasant boost to start the meal.

Great, chunky ice for the drinks…

Boylan’s Birch Beer…

…And, Dr Brown’s Cel-Ray

Maui Mokka @ Starbucks

Big Tex Decatur

Migas Topped With Carnitas & JalapeƱo Relish

Breakfast heaven, tender chunks of pork with crispy edges bury those perfectly cooked eggs. Sometimes, we can be a bit generous with that word. But, this time, we’d offer even higher praise. Those eggs were light, supremely delicate and touched with […]

Cakes & Ale Bakery

Almond Croissant

There are no words to adequately describe the goodness.

The outer layers are delightfully light, flaky, airy and crisp in a perfectly fragile and delicate way. The interior is buttery, dense and so deliciously rich with sweet, almond paste. It’s literally […]
