McGowan’s Oakhurst Pub

Pulled Pork Croquettes With JalapeƱo Jam

Oddly shaped unassuming little balls…

One bite in, you’ll be taken with them. They are absolutely chock full of tender pork and chunks of potato. Red pepper pieces are scattered about for a little pop of color. […]

Kombucha Wonder Drink — Asian Pear & Ginger

Asian Pear & Ginger Kombucha

This kombucha had a great balance of flavor. The sweetness of the fruity Asian pear and the richness of the ginger balanced the acidity in all the right ways. This is a new favorite.

Love it!

The Mill Kitchen & Bar

Pimento Cheese Balls

With Green Tomato Chow Chow & Tomato Jam

We had a feeling we’d like these. But, we didn’t. We LOVED these! Crispy on the outside and rich, creamy, oozy gooey fried pimento cheese on the inside, what’s not to love? […]

Hugo’s Oyster Bar

“… Man was never meant to BECOME an oyster.”

This is so true. We just want to eat them.

Fact of Life #1001 = Oyster shots are rarely appetizing.

This one was particularly unappealing and hard to swallow. The scent of […]

Hop Alley Brew Pub

Hop Alley Beer Flight Tank Breaker, Low Country IPA, Andechs Weizen, & Mo Sleeper

The Tank Breaker… LOVED it!

We really did. But, we’re two lightweights with very short attention spans. Next time, we’ll try to focus on the why. Worth the drive to Alpharetta? Without […]

Big Shanty Smokehouse BBQ

Sampler Brisket, Ribs, Pulled Pork, Pulled Chicken & Sausage With Collards & Cheesy Mac

It was all quite good (except for that sausage). The meats were very smoky, tender and paired with a sauce that lets the flavor of each meat shine. The sausage had good flavor, too. […]

Chuy’s — Deep Fried Stuffed Avocado

Deep Fried Stuffed Avocado

Keepin’ it weird…. but, it is weirdly good.

This giant ball of deep fried avocado is stuffed with cheese and shredded chicken. Swimming in a sea of cheesy, smoky chipotle sauce, it’s simultaneously awesome and ridiculous. Love it!

Chuy’s 118 […]

Ghirardelli Chocolate Sundae

Espresso Escape Sundae

We’re not sure why they call this an intense dark sundae. The espresso chip ice cream paired with milk chocolate-y fudge lacked dark chocolate appeal. It was topped with a dark chocolate square. We can only guess that that’s the deep dark […]

Local 7

New Belgium Ranger IPA

“Beer Is Proof That God Loves Us and Wants Us To Be Happy.”

..or

“Behold the rain which descends from heaven upon our vineyards, there it enters the roots of the vines, to be changed into wine, […]

The Spence

Sailor’s Crutch (London Dry Gin, Lemon, Falernum, Lillet, & Soda)

Refreshing and light, it was a lovely start to the meal.
