Tasty China is Still Here

March 23, 2015

The Atlanta Sichuan news has been dominated by the closing of Gu’s, which I found pretty odd but is explained a little better a few days after the sudden closure. I hope they do well at Krog, though the dumplings and noodles, which make-up the majority of the stall’s menu, are not my favorite items to […]

China Village Restaurant

September 26, 2014

Let me start – I was sad. I tried to visit Gu’s Bistro for lunch last week and they are on vacation for a few weeks. I really wanted fish and tofu in hot oil or something else fiery and comforting. I thought about going to Chong Qing but noticed there was another place even […]

Kimchi Miso Dumplings

March 4, 2011

More fun with miso, this time kimchi based dumplings. One batch with firm pressed/minced tofu, another with ground pork. The great thing about using kimchi for dumplings is it has inherent flavor, and this kimchi had scallions, so I didn’t need to add a bunch of ingredients for flavor or filler. It’s super fast to […]

Kitsune (“Fox”) Udon

October 20, 2010

I got the itch to make udon noodles after reading this Rasa Malaysia (via No Recipes) post on Kitsune (aka fox) udon, which I then followed up with a revisit to Eat, Drink, Man’s post on dashi. Gene of EDM is now writing for the AJC as the ethnic food writer, and personally I’m excited […]

Kogi burst onto the LA food scene in early 2009 with a variety of unique Korean/Latin fusion offerings available at their mobile restaurant (aka taco truck). They went über-viral when they got on […]

OK Cafe

October 28, 2009

There are certain restaurants in Atlanta, which serve mostly forgettable food, but remain immensely popular, particularly with the Buckhead crowd. Jalisco and Silver Skillet immediately come to mind. These places are packed all the time, and the best I can figure is that nostalgia, sense of community, cliques, and modest expectations all play a part […]

Sichuan Peanuts, Cucumber Salad, and Bean Curd Noodles

April 8, 2009

This past Sunday was my next foray into the Land of Plenty cookbook, but this time I vowed there would be no more ingredient substitutes! You know what this means…back to Buford Highway! While the Super H  is totally money, Buford Highway is so much closer than Duluth, and I was told that Ranch 99 […]

Drum roll please! The 18th post in the Atlanta Pizza Days is here, and it’s also the last post in the series. We’re finishing up with yet another pizza destination that is new to me – Maddio’s Pizza Joint (menu here). It’s been a fun and calorie-filled ride, and I was excited to wrap this all […]
