Weekends equal bagels in our book (call us old school for still eating carbs and gluten), but Atlanta definitely has a shortage of authentic New York-style belly bombs. We therefore decided to schlep deep into Alpharetta territory to BB’s Bagels for what might be, hands-down, the most perfect bagel in Atlanta: perfectly kettle-boiled and baked, … Continue reading
“In hungry, out happy” should be the mission and motto of every good restaurant. Signs like these flank the massive kitchen of Local Three for their Sunday brunch buffet. They definitely deliver on their promise. I was hesitant to take Little A for brunch as his more then boisterous personality of late has turned many a heads. … Continue reading
Have you found yourself too exhausted to cook after a long day at work or schlepping your little ones around to swim practices and music classes and any other class that is sure to build their resume for the Ivy League? Have you been defeated recently by your very active 2-year old’s behavior in restaurants? … Continue reading
There is no denying that people across all professions like being rewarded for working hard. Those rewards come in many forms: positive feedback, access to new developmental opportunities, bonuses, promotions, and more.

Since lunchtime was usually not until late afternoon (immediately followed by a nice long siesta), this was our opportunity to fill up on the freshest Mexican cuisine. I still remember the large breakfast room … Continue reading
Ahead of its time, R. Thomas has been offering a huge menu of healthy dishes for over 25 years. You wouldn’t expect it in a city filled with fried chicken and BBQ joints (ironically, before changing his ways, owner Richard Thomas served as President of Kentucky Fried Chicken, and was one of the founders of Bojangles’).

I spent five years of my life toiling away in the Psychology building at UGA and four of those commuting from Atlanta. And while I don’t miss that commute for one second (and regret not having XM radio), I often miss the small town feel of Athens, only an hour’s drive (and change) from Atlanta. … Continue reading
Many northerners, My Little Foodies’ Daddy included, lament the lack of good deli (and bagels) in Atlanta. I have to agree; good delis are few and far between. For those of you thinking that Einstein’s serves a perfectly decent bagel, you have been duped. Continue reading
