This week we celebrated the 4th of July with a glorious meal at Shaun’s in Inman Park.  We were accompanied by Ashley’s Mom and two Mystery Guest Tasters who did not wish for their names, likenesses, or any vaguely identifying information to be published on the world wide web - you never know who will discover […]

The bar has been raised this week.   Ashley and I joined the rest of the cool kids looking for the latest place to be seen on the Westside for this week’s drinks.  The word about town was that the place to be was Ormsby’s - a pub in the White Provisions building.  After a quick […]

Our apologies to Jill & Scott for having to cancel our planned outing to Parish for Inman Park restaurant week.  Cocktails do not mix well with acetaminophen.
So instead of reviewing Parish’s cocktails, our post was going to be about Yogi Cold Season Tea because we spent all weekend losing a battle with nasty head colds.  We […]

This week we ventured to one of our favorite Midtown spots for a nice meal at the bar of Ecco.  This was by far the most vibrant bar scene of all the places we have rated so far.  Sauced had lots of cool kids floating around for sure, but Ecco has a great mix of […]

This week we stayed close to home and wandered down to Mezcalto’s Cantina in Oakhurst Square for our weekly cocktail.  A meal at Mezcalito’s is already a weekly (sometimes bi-weekly) ritual for us.  Ok - we once at two meals in one day there - it is a problem.  We were not always fans of the […]

Wisteria did not disappoint as a first destination for 52 Weeks of Drinks.  This is one of our favorite restaurants - we love the snotty southern cuisine, the atmosphere and the people who work here including Jason (the chef/owner), Katie (manager/hot hostess), Vivianne (our former waitress turned nurse), and Patricia (multipurpose player).
Hadi (bartender & more) […]

After watching Julie and Julia over Christmas, we decided Random Atlanta needed a mission for 2010.  But not something as ambitious as cooking 524 French cuisine recipes in one year - we have day jobs and waistlines to preserve.   We decided to pick a mission that required less effort and had an Atlanta connection.
So […]

We were wrong.  And we can admit that.  We first went to Repast a few years ago when it first opened.  It was a good meal, and we remember the cocktails being exceptional, but it fell into our - “good but not worth repeating” category.  Many restaurants suffer this fate from us because there are […]
