Throngs of Vietnamese line up every Sunday morning as women furiously assemble what I consider to be the best sandwich in Atlanta. Period. My daughter, “Big A” has the same sentiment. “Little A” would agree by the way he clutches this beauty on our frequent trips to Quoc Huong. The Banh Mi sandwich is a … Continue reading
If you are looking for a wickedly good sandwich for you or your Little Foodies, look no further than Villain’s Wicked Heroes. Continue reading
There’s no doubt that little ones love to play in their imaginary worlds. For my son, Little A, that means pretending to be a little chef in his cherry-red, pint-sized kitchen. A ninja or warrior adventure gets my daughter, Big A’s creative juices flowing. And parents caught up in the exhausting chaos of work, end-of-the-year … Continue reading
A dear friend of mine always questions my obsession with deli. She frankly doesn’t get my passion for a good bowl of matzoh ball or kreplach soup, nor does she share my appreciation for a real pastrami or corned beef (I’m not talking Boar’s Head) sandwich on rye. As a Jew, it is so engrained in my culture and my history. Too me, it’s like questioning a Mexican’s love of tacos or an Italian’s love of pasta. Deli is simply a part of my DNA, as well as My Little Foodies’. Continue reading

This fast-casual, upscale eatery offers an array of Austrian-originated schnitzel-style chicken dishes perfect for any little poultry aficionado. This pounded, breaded, and fried … Continue reading
Couldn’t secure that babysitter this past weekend for a nice romantic getaway from the kids at highly acclaimed Bacchanalia? Don’t even think about bringing your Little Foodies there; even I am not that bold. However, I often crave the food and environs created by visionary chefs Anne Quatrano and Clifford Harrison, but don’t always feel … Continue reading
When spring rolls around in Atlanta, festival season starts, and our family takes advantage by hitting every one of these local celebrations we can find. Our hands-down favorite is the Inman Park Festival, which is how we fell in love with this fantastic Atlanta neighborhood. In our most recent stroll through, we stopped in to … Continue reading
I’m willing to bet most normal families plan their activities, and then once done with the fun (or misery, depending on whether your kids are well-rested, or if it is 100 degrees outside, or if they’re coming down with something, etc.) pick a restaurant at which to re-fuel based almost exclusively on convenience. Many save … Continue reading
