History

Atlanta, GA
So why create a blog? Well, those close to me know how passionate I am about my food...eating food, to be more precise. 15 years ago I discovered the joy of dining in restaurants which boast a unique ambiance and delicious food. I first started tracking lists of great restaurants when I lived in Columbus, OH in the mid 90's. I was fortunate to dine at Cameron Mitchell's, Fifty-Five, Bravo, Rigsby's, Barcelona, and many more. I read in local newspapers about the best Places to be Seen, to Celebrate, to Impress, etc. and formulated my "to try" list. This hobby continued in Birmingham, AL and again when my travels brought me to Atlanta, GA ten years ago. I started a Supper Club with close friends in 2000, trying a new restaurant every Thursday night. We had one simple rule in the club, “no chain restaurants”! After three years of stomping through Atlanta's best and worst restaurants, we realized that this weekly tradition was becoming too expensive to maintain (go figure!). However, in 2005 I started making notes of my dining experiences for personal reference. To make it easy for my friends to get my recommendations, I thought I would try blogging. So...here goes!

A late lunch with some of my favorite girlfriends...from Lady Smack - Colette & Amy!

Ambiance: 10
Depending on your mood...we came on a rainy Sunday for a late lunch. We sat on the porch, with live music!! Two fellas were playing acoustic guitar and singing - it was the perfect setting for our girls luncheon! There were heaters on the patio and blankets available for guests who wanted them. I loved it!


Food Quality: 7
We started with the Smoked Portabello soup - it was mighty tasty!









The Surf and Turf Quesadilla was loaded with a variety of ingredients, but was surprisingly a bit bland. Both Colette and Amy loved it though.




The Honey Chicken Salad was delicious. Served with a generous portion of chicken and a surprisingly sweet dressing. The dressing may be too sweet for the average person, but I really liked it.


Service: 9
Knowledgeable and perfectly timed. No complaints from me.

Value: 7
$76 for the three of us which included two entrees, one soup and three glasses wine.
