52 Weeks of Drinks: Week 28 - Shaun’s with Mysterious Guest Tasters

Date July 6, 2010

This week we celebrated the 4th of July with a glorious meal at Shaun’s in Inman Park.  We were accompanied by Ashley’s Mom and two Mystery Guest Tasters who did not wish for their names, likenesses, or any vaguely identifying information to be published on the world wide web - you never know who will discover […]

52 Weeks of Drinks: Week 27 - Rathbuns

Date July 1, 2010

We were simply craving Kevin Rathbun’s cooking.  We wanted the scallops, the second mortgage fillet, the lamb scaloppini, and of course the eggplant steak fries.  Jennifer, Alley, Alison and I decided to do our 27th week of 52 Weeks of Drinks there as well.  (Doesn’t Alley look so happy in this photo?) I met with […]

52 Weeks of Drinks: Week 26 - La Tavola

Date June 24, 2010

We love this place.  We especially love it because our good friend and woman of amazing things, Alli, is the bartender and mixologist.  And let me be clear, Alli has a following.  She will “Facebook” that she is working on a certain night and the bar is packed full of people hoping to hang out […]

52 Weeks of Drinks: Week 25 - Sarah, Matt, and Mr. Baby’s Home

Date June 16, 2010

So, call us slack.  We just did not go out to one of the many fabulous remaining bars/restaurants for a drink this past week.  We had a lot going on and wanted to hang out with our friends, Matt, Sarah, and their kid - who is quite frankly not old enough to go into a […]

52 Weeks of Drinks: Week 24 - Leon’s

Date June 9, 2010

We have been meaning to get back to Leon’s in Decatur.  We went like the second week it was open and were not that impressed of the sister restaurant of the famous Brickstore.  Alas, we decided to finally give it another shot and loved loved loved it - especially the cheese plate.  Yummy.  Actually, all […]

52 Weeks of Drinks: Week 23 - Abattoir

Date May 30, 2010

The bar has been raised this week.   Ashley and I joined the rest of the cool kids looking for the latest place to be seen on the Westside for this week’s drinks.  The word about town was that the place to be was Ormsby’s - a pub in the White Provisions building.  After a quick […]

52 Weeks of Drinks: Week 21 - DrinkShop / W Downtown

Date May 26, 2010

We have decided to start going to real bars around the city.  We tend to go to restaurants for this drinking task - but only because we love food so much too.  This past weekend, though, we fancied it up a bit and got all dolled up and headed to the W Downtown for the […]

52 Weeks of Drinks: Week 20! -JCT Kitchen

Date May 17, 2010

*This week, we were at yet another destination wedding, so our friends, Sarah and Phillip, were kind enough to post for us.  Their post follows.  Enjoy! 
When Ashley asked if we would guest blog for 52 Weeks of Drinks this week, initially I was really excited. Who needs to be asked twice to take yourself […]

52 Weeks of Drinks: Week 19 - The Twilight Zone

Date May 12, 2010

This week we used the fabulous Scoutmob to try and get a deal and find a good place for cocktails.  We tried Amuse! but much to our dismay - no cocktail menu at all - just a “full bar.”  Not amusing.
The next day, we headed to the mountains of Highland, NC for the wedding of […]

52 Weeks of Drinks: Week 18 - The Graveyard Tavern

Date May 4, 2010

We actually made it to an actual bar!  Bravo for us.  We went to East Atlanta’s Graveyard Tavern for a very good “cause” on Saturday evening.  There, the Pinups for Pitbulls were doing a fundraiser for Atlanta Bully Rescue - a local fabulous non-profit dedicated to helping the pit bulls and bully breeds around our […]
