• Pauley’s: Not quite like Paris, but close enough.

    Tuesday, February 3rd, 2009

    Pauley’s is a new restaurant and bar that opened up on West Clayton across the street from Transmet and between General’s and Cutter’s.
    I was really excited about a new, creative restaurant that wasn’t too big to handle and had a lot of personality. In case you didn’t know, Pauley’s specialty is crêpe-making (pronounced KREHP…with the [...]

  • 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 [...]

  • Farm 255: the best restaurant in Athens

    Tuesday, October 7th, 2008

    OK, it’s a strong statement, but I believe it.
    Unfortunately, I don’t have any pictures to document my wonderful experience at Farm 255, but I’m hoping I can paint pictures with words for you.
    If you don’t know the history of Farm 255, its namesake is due to the restaurant’s farm right outside of Athens where little [...]

  • Peppino's: I almost forgot!

    Friday, May 16th, 2008

    In the midst of my posting madness this week, I almost forgot to write about my lunch on Saturday at Peppino’s with the Arch Society.
    We had to work both graduation ceremonies on Saturday, and apparently it’s tradition to venture to Pepppino’s for lunch in between the two.
    In case you don’t know about Peppino’s, here’s some [...]

  • Your Pie: Um, go there TODAY.

    Monday, May 12th, 2008

    There are many pizza places in town, but I am amazed at the genius behind the concept of Your Pie. In an increasingly competitive Athens food market, these guys found a niche that I think will take them to infinity and beyond.
    Please let me tell you how amazing my little lunch was at Your Pie [...]

  • 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 [...]

  • Catching up at The Grit

    Sunday, March 2nd, 2008

    The Grit, a local vegetarian hot spot, has been one of my favorite Athens restaurants since I came to school.
    I think the word “vegetarian” scares a lot of people away, but I think the negative connotation will go away once you try their mac and cheese.
    Here’s what you need to know before you go:
    Location: On [...]

  • "It's not 2008, it's 2000-love," says Kelly's Jerk.

    Thursday, February 28th, 2008

    Yes. That’s what Kelly said tonight. The owner of his two restaurants in Athens, Ga., Kelly’s Jerk, Jamaican-born Kelly believes in love, a peaceful mind and some downright spicy food.
    To heck with Airborne. If you need your sinuses cleared, eat here! Some basic info. first:

    Location: The original location is on South [...]
