Food 101-Brunch

I had the pleasure of enjoying brunch here with a group so we were in a separate dining area. I say that up front because we had two people assigned to us so when I say the service was excellenct I can't speak for "normal dining" area.
Here is what I ate:
LOW COUNTRY SHRIMP & GRITS with Andouille Sausage and San Marzano Tomato Gravy.

The food- Good but the portion size was small.
Service-Excellent(The food was broought out nice and hot and the drinks were constantly being filled)
Price-Good(I beleive I paid $15.00 plus tax)
Interior-We were in a private closed off dining area that was comfortable. I would recommend this area to others.
Would I go back? Yes this time maybe trying dinner.

Let it snow let it snow let it snow......

.....well so far the jokes on us here Atlanta! We were expecting snow today but so far it's been snow flurries spotted here and there:(
Most of the schools in Atlanta and the surrounding areas closed  early in anticipation of the snow.
I am from Texas so it's not like I have been around snow my entire life but it would be nice to get a little snow here, just enough for it to stick.
I am not giving up yet. My fingers are still crossed for some of the white stuff to fall and stick.

Cami Cakes......Cupcakes yum!!!!

One of our local radio producers Nina Brown from V 103 had been talking about these really good cup cakes by a company called Cami Cakes. I kept saying I was going to try them but never took the time to go and check them out. Well today happened to be a co workers Birthday and I know he likes sweet stuff and was pretty sure he had not tried cami cakes so I used his Birthday as an excuse to get it in gear and go!




Boy oh boy I am sooooo happy that I did. First off all when you hit the door, it smells amazing. The young ladies behind the counter were very nice and patient as I had no idea what I wanted to get because there is so much too choose from.



I did a variety mix for my co worker and I had the Banana Cream for myself....delish! The icing was just sweet enough. The cupcake was moist and did not fall apart when I took a bit.



Presentation for me is big. The cupcakes look exactly as they do on the web site and they are given to you in a cute pink box. I want to have a party just so I can display the cupcakes.


The shop is small,pink and clean.



Price-Good-$2.50 per cupcake



Location-Good-On Peachtree Rd in a strip mall where you can enter and exit at a light. for those who travel Peachtree Rd you know how important this is for a driver.



Service-Good-Service with a smile.



Will I go back? For sure!!!!!!

Yogli Mogli-Not your everday soft serve yogurt

Yogli Mogli
I had heard some really positive reviews of this place so I finally made my way in.
Most of the reviews I heard said expect a long line but to my surprise on a Saturday around 1:30pm there were only 3 people ahead of me.
Here's the run down:
You walk in grab a cup(they are all one size) and serve yourself to several different choices. I decided on a cheesecake and strawberry mix.
You then step up to the toppings there were hard toppings like candy and soft toppings of fruit.
I chose butterfinger(just a little),strawberries and kiwi.
You are charged by the ounce(.39) but for all I just described my total was just over 3 bucks-not bad!
There is a high bar with chairs inside and a small amount of sitting outside. I took my treat to go. I ate it in about two miles!!
I will be back for sure.

Taste of Asia Week-Atlanta

I received this invite on e mail today and thought I would share. I have never participated but plan to do so. http://www.tasteofasiaweek.com/

Who knew food could be good-Six Feet Under

Food-A-I had the shrimp tacos(soft) with the home fries. The tacos were good. I could have done without the home fries.....very hard. I also had a root beer which I have not had in a lonnnnng time. Very refreshing:-)My girlfriend had the shrimp Po Boy-She said it was good(not as big and tasty as the ones in New Orleans) but good.
Service B-Felt like we were sitting there about 10 minute's. We finally called the host over who took and delivered our drink order. I went on this trip with a girlfriend but I do plan to go back with my hubbie.
Prices-A-$10.50 for the tacos and $9.50 for the Po-Boy.
