What happens when two people who like to eat out (and take pictures of their food) start a food blog? We go out to dinner every Friday as a standing date night. Fridays are great for eating out–everyone wants to celebrate the end of the work week and we have found that restaurants tend to have a festive buzz about them on Friday nights. Sometimes we go out on other nights and occasionally we will go to a restaurant media event or go on a lunch date. We have been blogging about our experiences since June, 2011.
Who are we? We are a couple of retired television directors who have been married for 30+ years. When we were working, we hated sitting in traffic on Fridays and preferred a nice beer and a meal instead of stressing out in Atlanta bumper-to-bumper. We live in Marietta, but as you will see, that doesn’t stop us from sampling restaurants from all over the ATL. Our only rule is that we try to go to a different place every week. You will enjoy our culinary adventures throughout the city.

I love your blog and have been taking your adventures as advice. I have discovered some really great restaurants from it. And although I appreciate it, my wife loves it because she reaps the benefits of your wonderful narrative describing your culinary adventure!
Thanks!
Thanks, Andrew for the kind words, and thanks for reading the blog!
I love your blog! It’s fun to go to a place and then read your reviews, or sometimes try a new place BECAUSE of your reviews. Also, dining out in July seems lonley without any new reviews from you. I hope you have something new for us soon. Cheers!
I enjoy reading your blog! Didn’t know you were a fellow cyclist!
Such a great blog! It’s awesome how many restaurants you’ve visited in the Atlanta area. Keep up the great work. Looking forward to reading more.
