Spindrift Sparkling Blackberry Soda
8 Blackberries & A Squeeze of Lemon
The scent of fresh blackberries hit both of us before ever taking a sip. You really can see specks of blackberry in the bottle and suspended in the soda. We both fell in love with this [...]
Georgia Mule
DBA’s Georgia Mule is composed of Junior Johnson moonshine, fresh ginger, lime and ginger beer. This cocktail is a lovely breath of fresh air on a warm night.
Fried Pickles & Bacon
Predominantly breaded with cornmeal, these had a really great crunch to them. [...]
rBQ
This burger is topped with freshly ground black pepper, chives, slaw, and pulled brisket in rBQ sauce. It all sits on top of a buttery bun with a dab of smoked mayo. It all works. But, it would work even better without the smoked mayo.

Homemade BBQ-grilled Burger on Mini Ciabatta
Another visit to Alon’s… and we made another great find.
We were browsing with some interest at a rather nondescript vacuum-sealed package of ground beef.
Three-Cut Ground Beef of Hanger, Chuck, & Brisket
And, one of the Alon’s friendly staff volunteered a bit [...]
Cheesy topped popovers
What’s not to love? Crispy cheese topped popovers were served warm with sweet cream butter and sea salt. They were simple & delicious.
Black Angus Burger with double wood smoked bacon
The high quality angus beef shines in this burger. And, nicely charred grill marks underline the [...]
While the subdued lighting at Rathbun Steak makes for a pleasant setting. It makes grabbing a shot of the food difficult, if not impossible, during the winter (the patio isn’t really an option). But, quite frankly, with food this good… who cares? I don’t need to take a shot of the steak. The [...]
Rock Shrimp with Grits
Subtle changes to a traditional recipe make a world of difference. Rock shrimp are beautiful in this delicate broth with wine and cream. The delicate hint of wine and a mirepoix diced to a fine brunoise transform this Southern Classic into a brand new elegant dish. This dish [...]
Table 1280 Burger with Portobello Mushrooms, Swiss & Steak Fries
The Best Burger in Atlanta
Part 1
Who’s got the best burger in Atlanta? I don’t think there is an answer to this question. There are many outstanding burgers to be had in our fair city. When you think of a burger, [...]
Potted Chicken Liver & Foie Gras Pâté with grilled bread
The touch of smoke from the grilled bread play off the creamy richness of the pâté. All at once, rich, buttery, and delicate with an air of sweetness that just barely presents itself. (Possibly from a reduction of armagnac, to dissipate the alcohol.)
Many of the best meals are not about the food. They’re all about the journey.
We’ll never forget that first bag of roasted chestnuts eaten in Central Park on a fall vacation. We remember the smell in the air and the gorgeous colors straight out of a dream. The sum is greater than its parts.
When we [...]
