• The Big Easy Cafe Do’s it Right!

    Tuesday, March 24th, 2009

    I love Cajun food. I don’t know if it’s because of my Louisiana heritage, or because it’s a rare commodity in this part of the country. Either way, my friends and I were itching for a low country boil this past weekend, and we got one!
    When my friend, Sarah, first mentioned having a low country [...]

  • Utage + baller lunch special= yummy!

    Tuesday, May 13th, 2008

    I went to the best sushi place in Athens, Utage, with my Jackson Spalding mentor, Ashley, on Friday for lunch.
    We thought it would be a relaxing, low-key Friday in downtown Athens, but we were definitely mistaken.  UGA graduation was this past Saturday, so it was packed- even in the sushi joint.
    Ashley and I sat at the sushi [...]

  • Casa Mia in the Spring

    Sunday, May 11th, 2008

    I want to first write a little disclaimer apologizing for the lack in posts lately.  I’ve eaten at four restaurants this week, and I haven’t been diligent about getting them up on time.  I’m hoping these next few will make up for it, though!
    On Monday, my first day on the job at Jackson Spalding, I [...]

  • The Basil Press: Pictures are worth 1,000 words

    Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

    I think for this post, I’ll let the pictures do the talking.
    Last Sunday, Mom, Dad, Addie (my grandmother) and I asked Dr. Jones and her husband, Mr. Dr. Jones, to eat dinner with us at The Basil Press.  My parents had heard how absolutely wonderful they are, and I have always raved about their involvement [...]

  • DePalma's is it.

    Saturday, December 8th, 2007

    Did you know DePalma’s has a location on the East side of town?
    I have ordered take-out from there numerous times, but I think I’ve only eaten in the restaurant once. Since I live on the East side-ish, it’s pretty convenient to drive over there.
    In case you don’t know where it is, here’s [...]

  • Loco at Loco's

    Sunday, December 2nd, 2007

    On Friday night, I went to eat with my roommate from freshman year, Erin. It was the first time we had eaten together in a while, so I wanted to make it fun! It was the typical Friday night Christmas crowd, but, despite the loads of traffic, we decided to go to Loco’s [...]

  • Harry B's

    Wednesday, October 3rd, 2007

    It is still a fact that my favorite place to eat in Athens is Harry Bissett’s.
    With two locations, one on Broad Street and the other off of Mitchell Bridge Road, they pride themselves in their fresh fish and New Orleans style food.
    Here is the basic information:

    Location: Broad Street, between Jackson Street and College Avenue (other [...]
