Have you ever thought about what would happen if you let your child run freely through the supermarket stocking his or her cart with whatever piqued their interest and taste buds? I have experimented with this on a couple of occasions. The most recent trip was through a big box grocer to shop for a … Continue reading
Restaurants need to be held to a higher standard of food quality for both children and their parents. I believe True Food Kitchen, which recently opened at Lenox Mall in Buckhead, is setting a very high bar. Hopefully, more will follow in its footsteps. Continue reading
It may be hard to find a better way to support the community than by dining at Café Jonah and the Magical Attic. Conceived by the iconic Jenny Levinson of Souper Jenny, our family has come to love this cozy lunch and brunch spot in the heart of Buckhead. Jenny has given the Atlanta community so much in terms of “real food” to feed our stomachs and souls, and Café Jonah is just another example of how she gives back to the community. 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’).

When Mother Nature isn’t cooperating, we often head to one of our favorite indoor playgrounds or “bouncy houses.” Why in the world would I be writing about a bouncy house on a foodie blog? Well, unless you are the consummate planner … Continue reading
There are those few restaurant gems that consistently deliver in quality and customer service, that become your go-tos when you’ve had a long day at work and are not in the mood to cook dinner. After my first child, FuegoMundo quickly became my go-to. Although close proximity to home was certainly a factor, the high … Continue reading

When spring arrives, our weekly routine includes visiting local farmers’ markets. Each one (and there are many to choose from) has its own flavor, with distinct farms and local vendors. Due to its proximity, a shaded, laid-back setting, and a superb collection of vendors, the market with which My Little Foodies are most familiar is … Continue reading
