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 […]

Yebo Restaurant & Bar

Bunny Chow

That sounds so much nicer than chicken liver curry with peri-peri in a South African bread bowl. Or, then again, does it? No matter. It doesn’t really matter what you call it. We want to eat it. This was a mildly spiced, rich and creamy curry […]

Ameer’s Mediterranean Grill

Katayif

Made to order, this divine dessert was served warm. Spiced walnuts were generously stuffed into each pancake-like pastry. Then, each one was drizzled with sweet syrup and topped with chopped pistachios. We might not have eaten these first. But, they more than deserve the […]

Gio’s Chicken Amalfitano

Gio’s Chicken Amalfitano

Scarpiello

Here, gorgeously roasted chicken keeps company with giant wedges of roasted potato, big chunks of sausage, sweet red peppers, pearl-sized onions and garlic. Breast, thigh, wing and leg, all were doused with a sweet, olive oil rich vinaigrette.

The Greater Good BBQ

BBQ Ribs, Collards, & Texas Toast

Tender & Smoky

BBQ’d Half Chicken, Mac & Cheese , And Texas Toast

Moist, tender, smoky and richly spiced, this chicken has been shockingly good five times in a […]

The Optimist

Lobster Cobb

Lobster Roll

Two dishes, we can’t get enough of them. So, we’ll just have to keep coming back…

…again and again.

Hopefully, we’ll be able to tear ourselves away from them long enough to give that Oyster […]

Farm Burger & Morelli’s — Dunwoody

Banana, Caramel Pecan & Spiced Pumpkin, Caramel, Pecan

Why are we starting with dessert? Both of these flavors were outstanding. And, we had a hard time picking a favorite between these two deliciously rich combinations. But, in the end, we have to give the edge to the banana, […]

Egg Harbor Cafe

Corned Beef Hash Benedict

Both eggs were over-cooked and a bit rubbery.

Barrington Benedict

More of the same, those eggs were over-cooked eggs. The bland Hollandaise was runny, watery, and all-around unpleasant. And, what about those potatoes? They […]

Taqueria Los Hermanos

Enchiladas De Mole

Each enchilada was stuffed with grilled chicken breast slices marinated in lime. Then, they were topped with two types of cheese and mole sauce. Fresh green beens sautéed with garlic and olive oil, pico de gallo and red rice completed the plate.

[…]

Canton House

We’re (mostly) refraining from comment until our next visit. Over half of our plates were cold. No, we do not mean lukewarm or room temperature. No, we mean very cold. The sort of cold that […]
