by Lauren Townsend for The Aha! Connection Well, Dunwoody, it appears we skipped Spring and fast forwarded to Summer. The warmer weather usually serves as a reminder that I should get moving since I am about as active as a mushroom, but luckily, I have Press, Blend, Squeeze to help get me back on track. […]
Thank you to all the folks who responded to our “Favorite Chinese Food” Survey. Most of the top choices are located really close to Dunwoody. This tells me that most people probably don’t like to venture too far from home for dinner on a regular basis. However, 9 of the top 20 are located on […]
Several friends and acquaintances have reached out to me over the past few weeks telling me I just “had” to try Press, Blend Squeeze. I’ll admit. I was skeptical. I’m not a big Smoothie King fan and I assumed that it was just another one of those smoothie places or like Orange Julius or something. […]
by Audra Anders The Aha! Connection Foodie Patty would LOVE Blue Top and I so wish she had been with me last night when I dined at this great new local restaurant. First of all, I just love the character of downtown Chamblee. Blue Top is nestled about midway in between two of my favorite […]

Black Walnut Cafe in Peachtree Corners – My family dined here for Easter brunch and loved it. It was shockingly affordable. They save money by a “fast casual” ordering approach. I recommend getting your menu, choosing a table, sitting down to review the menu (it’s expansive and you’ll want time to look it over), then […]
Staplehouse 541 Edgewood Ave NE Atlanta, GA 30312 Set in the 4th Ward district for the past year and a half or so is a restaurant that is the hottest ticket in town. I know why. My husband and I had the pleasure of dining at Staplehouse for my surprise birthday present several Friday nights […]
Fat Darrell works at UFC Gym-Perimeter. Okay, so Fat Darrell isn’t so fat at all. In fact, he’s in awesome shape. He told me recently that he’d give me a sandwich recipe for our “recipe of the week”. I was thinking it was probably a cucumber sandwich on rice cakes with protein powder or something […]

by Patty Moncrief After picking my daughter up from school on Wednesday, I told her that we needed to make a quick stop at Publix. After all of the protests, she began to negotiate. She would go to the store with me, if we could go to Da Vinci’s Donuts afterward. It was such a […]

Foodie Frenzy #24 – One Eared Stag For our next lunch date, I wanted to find a restaurant in the Inman Park/Old Fourth Ward/Krog Street area. We were somewhat limited by restaurants that serve lunch, however there were quite a few to choose from. I ultimately chose One Eared Stag because they featured a unique […]
