Cupcake Bites From Sprinkles
Diet, schmiet! This week we needed cupcakes. Thankfully, Sprinkles Cupcakes were there for us. Located just inside the entrance to Lenox Mall, Sprinkles has brought their yummy baked goods, plus a 24 hour cupcake ATM to Atlanta! Yup, freshly baked cupcakes available 24/7. Deliciously dangerous.
Steak Fajitas at El Rey Del Taco
El Rey Del Taco is late night taqueria found on Buford Highway. Serving up the best lengua tacos in town and a killer cocktail camerones. But don’t sleep on the steak fajitas. These are not your typical tex mex fajitas with slabs of barely charred beef. These had amazing crust and are exactly what fajitas should be. Served with a side of the handmade corn tortillas, it’s a steal at under $8 for a lunch portion. And hey, if you want to get a margarita or two, we won’t say a thing.
Goat Cheese Fritters at The Porter
This week is American Craft Beer Week, and of course The Porter is celebrating. With tap takeovers and special casks being tapped, this bar was the place to be all week. With a background at Seeger’s, owner Molly Gunn knows that a great beer needs a great bar snack. And their Goat Cheese Fritters more than do the job. Made with deep fried goat cheese, cracked black pepper and clover honey, these are cheese sticks on a whole new level.
