• Harry Bissett's on a Friday Night

    Tuesday, November 11th, 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 [...]

  • I'm back! …To Five Star Day, that is.

    Monday, October 6th, 2008

    To all my readers:
    I truly apologize for the lack of posts in September.  My life has been unbelievably hectic, and I am finally getting back to my normal schedule. So, never fear! Dawg Food girl is back and ready to write.
    Yesterday, I went to Five Star Day Cafe for brunch after church with my two [...]

  • Dad, Pancakes and The Grill- a Perfect Saturday

    Wednesday, April 16th, 2008

    This past weekend, my Dad came to Athens for the Father-Daughter Weekend with my sorority. I was actually in charge of planning it, and I wanted the whole weekend to be an optimal opportunity for Dads to visit with their daughters and their friends. So, everything we did tried to imitate something you [...]

  • Picante's is Still Good!

    Saturday, April 5th, 2008

    I hadn’t been back to Picante’s Mexican Grill since September, but it is definitely still great!
    It stands apart from the other local Mexican restaurants because of the freshness of the food. When I went there last night with my girlfriends, all of us were impressed!
    To start, we decided to order a pitcher of their [...]

  • Eat Some Cow at Porterhouse

    Friday, March 28th, 2008

    Porterhouse Grill makes me want to boycott Chick-Fil-A.
    Of course, I’m kidding, but if you’re looking for some high quality red meat in Athens, this is the place to go.
    Here’s the basic information before I detail the wonderful dinner I had with my family:
    Location: On East Broad Street, almost to the edge of downtown.
    Phone Number: (706) [...]

  • East West Bistro loves EDB-ers

    Tuesday, March 4th, 2008

    On Saturday night, I had the pleasure of going to a reception at East West Bistro.
    The staff from Edelman and all the peeps from the Edelman Digital Bootcamp came to debrief and talk some more about the day. We were upstairs in a fun reception room that overlooked Broad Street. I hadn’t been [...]

  • Loves it.

    Saturday, February 9th, 2008

    I’ve already talked about Five Star Day Cafe on the East side, but I couldn’t resist the opportunity to brag about their downtown location.
    Five Star Day has continually been a favorite of visitors, locals, students, hippies, preps, old people, families– I could keep going.
    It seems like their food is the perfect combination of originality and [...]

  • Good wich.

    Sunday, January 20th, 2008

    Yesterday, I finally made it to the new Which Wich downtown.
    Many friends kept asking me if I had been there yet, so I fulfilled their wish.
    If you want a fun sub, this is the place to go. I decided the taste of the sandwiches are average, but the process of ordering and the speed [...]

  • Out with the old, and in with the new.

    Thursday, December 13th, 2007

    Say goodbye to our dear Cold Stone Creamery, everyone. It is no longer in its (unhealthily) convenient spot on Broad.
    Why did it move? I can’t say.
    What’s going to go there? For that, I have the answer.
    The new neighbor on the block is going to be, Which Wich Superior Sandwiches. Although I’ve never heard of this [...]

  • Hangin' out at Five Guys

    Wednesday, December 5th, 2007

    I’ve been busy.
    Ever since I got my recorder (or blabber-corder as they call it in the Grinch), I’ve been obsessed.
    On my way to class today, I stopped by the new location of Five Guys’ (famous) Burgers and Fries on the corner of College Avenue and Broad Street. I didn’t have time to eat, but [...]
