Simple Food. Good Ideas. Great Fun.
Friday nights are often pizza nights at my house. The end of the week often lends itself to having an easy take-out or eat-in pizza.

Quoc Huong Banh Mi Fast Food is an unassuming looking restaurant located in a center along the famous Buford Highway in metro Atlanta. Don’t let its small appearance fool you.

I almost walked past the Victory Sandwich Bar despite having the GPS on my phone active. While it was in part because its subtle signage, it was mostly my getting distracted by of all of the appealing dining options in the couple of blocks we walked from our car.

Awesome! It may be the only word needed to describe Stilesboro Biscuits in Kennesaw, Georgia; it is the first thing that comes to mind when I think of eating one of their delicious biscuits.
