What’s better than mofongo? Mofonjo with shrimp smothered in spicy red sauce. We first visited the Dominican Restaurant & Bakery last year. Check out those pictures here.
Mofongo is made of deep-fried plantains that have been smashed and fried again. Then, they are coarsely mashed […]
With only a few bagels left, we were able to grab one of each remaining type. One poppy, one egg and one everything, each bagel was soft and tender on the inside with a nice chew to the crust. When asked where they got their bagels, they told us they […]
Granola Bar
Sawicki’s has a bakery case with most of the items made in-house. Baguettes and a couple other items are shipped in from Alon’s. We couldn’t resist a couple granola bars. They were incredibly rich with plenty of oats and jam-packed with chocolate chips. When you jam this many […]
Chesapeake Crab Benedict
Two crabcakes, each topped with a perfectly poached egg, sit next to a generous portion of home fries that have a lovely deep golden brown shell. I love my home fries to be crisp on the outside and creamy in the middle. So, these were perfect for […]
Gator Bites
The Depeaux is dishing up these perfectly fried bites made of alligator tail meat. As South Floridians at heart (and frequent visitors of New Orleans), we’ve sampled gator here and there. It’s usually disappointing. Sometimes it’s overcooked, sometimes it’s tastesless, and other times we find ourselves […]
Jerk Chicken with Red Beans & Rice
We first visited this great spot just east of Stone Mountain Park soon after they opened. And, the food has done nothing but get better and better. The chicken hits all the right spots: spicy, smoky, tender, juicy, and a hint of sweet […]
While this location (both as a Mellow Mushroom and now) has remained incredibly reliable for years. I think I’m enjoying the pizza even more now. The crust always has a nice crispness to the exterior, good flavor (minimal doughiness) and it is significantly less greasy than its Mellow Mushroom days. […]
Ras Madhuri
Soft flattened balls of pastry are soaked in syrup then topped with a creamy fudge-like icing, pistachios, and garnished with a cherry. The syrup-soaked cake-y balls have a texture much like a Cuban tres leches. But, they’re richer… if you can imagine that. The dense fudgy icing gives […]
Pav Bhaji Dosa
Two of our favorite vegetarian spots for a quick meal are Chat Patti and Gokul Sweets. We’ve been fans of Chat Patti for over 8 years and fans of Gokul Sweets for over a year. But, since we’ve only been taking shots of our food diligently for […]
In my book, most fast food falls on a sliding scale of “not bad”. The bottom side of that scale? “Eh, it’s edible. And, I’d rather eat this than starve.” The top side of that scale would be a surprised declaration. “Hmm… not bad.” These wings fall somewhere on the […]
