The great thing about dating someone who loves to eat out is that I get to try a bunch of different eateries. I don’t live inside the city limits anymore, like M does, so it’s like an adventure every time he drives. This week was no exception. Metro Atlanta’s public school’s were on break this […]

My boyfriend and I were sitting on the couch, both very indecisive about what to eat for dinner.  Lil’ Azio’s again?  No.  Mexican again?  No.  Chinese?  Hmmm, that’s one we haven’t done before.  Because I don’t live in the city limits anymore, I left the choice up to him.  He chose Chin Chin II, a […]

I had a no-so-typical outing recently.

As a non-New Yorker, I […]

A few steps from Vickery’s, the Matador Mexican Cantina & Tequila Bar sits quiet and nondescript. I am not a resident of the Glenwood area in Atlanta, but I adore the quaint neighborhood feel it conveys.  The Matador contributes to my admiration of the area. The menu is not very extensive, and is pretty standard Mexican […]

As you drive around the metro Atlanta area, you may see several Little Azio Pizzeria restaurants scattered about.  It was some time before I actually stopped into one of their stores, first experiencing their food in the Smyrna/Vinings location with a couple of girlfriends.
An Italian-style restaurant with a casual feel, the menu offers various types […]
