Re: “Weird panino, sinful burger, fancy French stuff

Cliff, have you heard about any development on the east side of Turner Field, that is to say the Georgia Ave. corridor/Summerhill? It's such a hole and seems like an area ripe with opportunity. Tons of retail space, sandwiched between the stadium and Grant Park. It's depressing to drive thru there.

Re: “Looks really huge. Uh, where's it at?

I was thrilled to find out it's the SPACIEST! I guess this is where all the unemployed NASA engineers wound up.

Re: “Who's looking to move out of Old Fourth Ward?

It's gotta' be Serpas—it's listed as 4000 square feet, 140 seats, and has TONS of parking.

Looking at square footage:
- Noni's 2629
- Sound Table 1875
- Cafe Circa 5140 (are there 2 buildings?: 2100 + 3040)
- Vesuvius 3979, but the lot is 4200 (42x100)
- Parish 5084 (I think--it's labelled "warehouse")
- Rathbun's around 4000

Vesuvius fits everything, I think, except for parking--it just has street parking, as far as I know--and Rathbun's doesn't sound right. Probably Serpas.

Re: “Cliff's top 10 Atlanta restaurants

Just went to Arepa Mia and got the Pabellón–kind of disappointing for over $7 with tax. Small portion, muted flavors. 3 ounces of meat maybe, dab of beans, 1-2 slices of plantains. Pretty much a let down and I'm still hungry. These are supposed to be cheap street food; should be $3-4 for serving. Back to banh mi for me...

Re: “Another lunch at Bantam + Biddy

But you had no problem paying $12 for $5 worth of meatloaf, mac and cheese, and greens, 3 of the cheapest things to cook? (That's why college students eat that.)

Re: “New fall lineup at Atlanta Food Truck Park

Ummm...there's no mention of what changes are being made to the hours. Not sure what the title is referring to. Maybe you meant "new programming" or "special events"?
