An Anniversary to Remember at 4th and Swift

Celebrating any special occasion calls for a night out! And this night was no different from any others! 
The Viking and I have been together for a year. And almost that whole time I've been talking about how I want to eat at 4th and Swift. So he made it happen. 
He made reservations for the two of us on a Sunday night, if I haven't given this tip before. Go to your favorite places on Sunday's the restaurant is quiet the service is always great and more often than not you get to met the chef. They aren't as busy and have the ability to walk the floor! 
We start with a couple of house cocktails, one with a twist on a classic and a martini that was infused w beets. The Viking didn't like that one so I drank it. No problems there. 
We then had a couple of appetizers as always if you have octopus on your menu I will order. So we did. And some artesian meats. So tasty! 
I decided on the duck lets just say this is a must try. Juicy served medium with spring veggies it was perfect in every way. The skin was fatty and crisp. 
The Viking had Three little Pigs (I think that's what it's called) it's pork 3 ways! He ate every bite and almost didn't want to share! We also got a side of the fingerling potatoes w goat cheese. OMG! 
Finished the night w something sweet! The desserts rotate so go with what's fresh! 
All in al the night was great the server was friendly and helpful the host took our picture and I even got a compliment from another table about how great I looked in my dress! So yay me! 
Go out on a Sunday night and support your local chefs and their staff!

JCT Kitchen and Sunday Supper

During the holiday season Derek and I decided to go back to JCT. We have been there before dinner and drinks for my birthday which was great!  Sunday Supper is a great idea the JCT does. A course menu for under $30. It's such a great idea! First things first, make a reservation while you can sit at the bar for dinner table side service is very nice and there is always a long wait! So please make a  reservation!  Second, get there early. This helps with two items one it's nice for the staff to have you checked in ahead of time for seating rotation. Two you can sit at the bar and get a craft cocktail from one of the knowledgeable bartenders.  So we sit down and order our meal. Everyone starts with homemade biscuits and jam. And a course of devil eggs. Our biscuits came out late due to running out (they are that good) and the first round of the biscuits where over cooked but replaced quickly! The eggs are fantastic all what you need and just like moms only a lot better!...

Seven Lamps a hidden gem in Buckhead

We can all agree if you live in Atlanta that this summer has been pretty fantastic for weather. So to enjoy the summer nights as best I could I headed over to Buckhead and decided I would try a new place.  So here I am driving through a parking lot and off to the right tucked behind the storefronts was a little patio with covered tables. I pulled in and walk up to the front desk. Asked the girl if we could sit outside and off we went.  You have a choice between family style tables or little metal cafe tables. There are a few chairs you can sit in and have a cocktail or glass of wine.  We sat at the table and immediately had water brought over. I ordered a Rose' and my date a beer. I think it was called Naked Pig. He loved it!  The chef serves a pickled plate instead of bread. All done in house and soooo tasty. The menu is innovative. Local farm to table meals. The menu changes daily based on what is available. I was told the produce was sold by Farmer Dan...you can't...

Nothing better on a bright and sunny afternoon than a margarita on the rocks and some good company. So this week I decided to go on an adventure and check out Nuevo Laredo Cantina located at 1495 Chattahoochee Ave NW, Atlanta, GA 30318. It's a great little hidden spot in Atlanta that has some of the best Mexican food you can find!  Walked in and got a table in the main dinning   area. Where you will find decor that is Charming and funny. Lots of pictures and some great signs! Chips and fresh salsa hit the table first. The chips are warm and salsa is fresh and spicy! The server came on and took out orders. We ordered margaritas on the rocks w salt now I will tell you the drink to order is the Cadillac margarita it's big and fantastic, but it was a week day so I went with the smaller one still as tasty just smaller!  The serve them by the glass or pitcher and prices start at $6.50.  Now I will have to let you in on a secret if mine. I have a weakness for a Chili R...
