Nip Tuck

January 31, 2009

I decided Dawg Food could use a little facelift, so that’s why it looks different than the last time you visited! I’m really indecisive, so I may change it a couple of times before I find the one I like best.
Just a heads up.

The Sultan is a must.

January 27, 2009

I am constantly amazed by the wide variety of restaurants that exist within Athens.
Since I heard about The Sultan last semester, I have been dying to try it. The Sultan is a local Lebanese restaurant that is located out on Atlanta Highway, right beside Best Buy. It’s almost to Bogart on your right.
My first experience [...]

January 23, 2009

Last Wednesday, most of the Executive Board from PRSSA went to Casa Mia to celebrate two birthdays, our friends Leslie and Kelli.
We originally went because of an e-newsletter I received from Casa Mia about a “15 for 15″ deal where you could taste 15 wines for $15. Seeing that as a good enough incentive, we [...]

Dinner and a Movie: Mirko Pasta and Cine

January 17, 2009

It’s been a while since my last post, but I promise this one will make up for everything.
Last night, I went with my dear friend, Anna Sexton, for a night of merryment. We started at Mirko Pasta (the Athens east side location) for dinner, and it totally made my day.
I always get nervous [...]

Two Stories Coffee House: They’re more about community than coffee.

December 9, 2008

I know this post isn’t exactly breaking news, but I thought I’d write about Two Stories Coffee House anyway.
Located on Lumpkin, right across the street from Earth Fare, Two Stories Coffee House is a lot like your home away from home.
I’m not sure what the owners did to the house, but it has been redone, [...]

I’ve never been to Taqueria del Sol, but I’ve heard it’s amazing.  All the Jackson Spalding employees in Atlanta this summer told me how much they’re obsessed with [...]

Harry Bissett's on a Friday Night

November 11, 2008

This past Friday, I ventured to Harry Bissett’s with about 26 of my closest friends.
Yes, it was a large crowd, but I think our experience at Bissett’s was one of the best I’ve had.
Our reservations were for 8 p.m., but we didn’t get seated until around 8:30.  It didn’t really matter because all 8 million [...]

Shokitini Karaoke: the best night of my LIFE

November 7, 2008

I still don’t understand the social phenomenon of karaoke.  What IS it that makes us fearless, despite our nasty singing voices, horrible dance moves, and blatant “you!” points at all of our friends.
Seriously.
Despite my misunderstanding, I. LOVE. KARAOKE. 
So, last night, my friend Jenny and I decided to host a Disney-themed karaoke party for all [...]
