Chihuly, Madre & Mason

Sometimes it’s fun to be tourists in your own city. With all of the traffic these days in Atlanta, you could say that driving inside the perimeter is a road trip for us. Tonight, we stroll thru the Atlanta Botanical Gardens and eat at nearby Madre & Mason on a fun night out. A few… Read More Chihuly, Madre & Mason

Local Three: 10/12/12

We’ve always had a lot of luck with restaurants that have “numbers” in their name. No. 246 in Decatur, Five and Ten in Athens, Nine St. Kitchen in Roswell, and 61 Main in Jasper are just a few of the “numbered” places that we have visited in the last six months. For Date Night #46,… Read More Local Three: 10/12/12

Holeman and Finch: 7/27/12

Sometimes we know exactly what we are going to order on Date Night before we go on our date. Sometimes, as the song goes, “you can’t always get what you want.” In our search for the “Best Hamburger in Atlanta”, we decide to pop into Holeman and Finch in South Buckhead to see if their… Read More Holeman and Finch: 7/27/12

Kyma: 6/29/12

“Would you like to sit outside?” the hostess jokingly asks us. It’s hot in Hot-lanta, around 105 degrees as we walk into Kyma. Our valet-parked car thermometer exaggerates a bit, but it’s a dry heat. We are in Mega-Buckhead, where the Buckhead Bobs and Bettys ALL do valet parking. We have a $25 gift card… Read More Kyma: 6/29/12

Antico Pizza: 2/24/12

“We have nine pizzas on the menu,” the woman at the counter says to us. “You can’t change the ingredients on any of them because they are all perfect.” That boast starts out Date Night as we hit Atlanta’s hottest pizzeria. The local paper loves this place and we have two glowing recommendations (thanks, Luis… Read More Antico Pizza: 2/24/12

Sip (Riverside): 2/3/12

Sometimes you are just in the mood for some small bites, and Date Night is in that kind of mood this week as we set out for our latest adventure.
