• 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 [...]

  • 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 [...]

  • Friend of the Week: Meridith Ford

    Monday, February 25th, 2008

    While this subject doesn’t really have to do with restaurants in Athens, I thought I’d share my experience interviewing the Dining Editor of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Meridith Ford.
    I was assigned to interview some sort of media gatekeeper for one of my classes, so with some advice (Thanks, Bryan.), I decided to interview a reporter who [...]

  • My first podcast at BISCHERO!

    Wednesday, December 5th, 2007

    I can’t tell you how excited I am about this post. Yes, I bought a digital voice recorder, so I could bring real interviews to you! True devotion.
    I went to eat dinner at Bischero with my group of ladies in the women’s choir at Athens First Methodist. There were about 10 [...]

  • Note to self…

    Monday, November 12th, 2007

    There’s no way I can start this post without saying, “Go dawgs!” What a great weekend for football…
    If you are wondering what the, “note to self,” is for, this is what I thought as I was leaving Sons of Italy on Friday night, “Note to self: NEVER change your restaurant to family-friendly when your [...]

  • Transmetro-holla(ton)!

    Thursday, September 27th, 2007

    I couldn’t live with myself if I made a blog about Athens restaurants and didn’t include Transmet.

    Transmetropolitan, the real name of the restaurant, is located on the semi-West end of Clayton Street. It is on the same side of the road as the Red Zone- on your left if you’re driving on Clayton.

    I have [...]

  • Pizza for Dawggies

    Sunday, September 16th, 2007

    There’s nothing mellow about the mushroom.
    One of the most exciting things I learned when returning to school this year was the new Mellow Mushroom had opened! I had been dying to try their pizza, complete with the new venue, and I finally got to try it.
    After the South Carolina game, me, my Dad, and a [...]
