Re: What to eat in Atlanta?

What place has the best coffee? Unfortunately there's no Tim Horton's but I still need my coffee in the morning! What is better? Krispy Kreme, Dunkin Donuts or anything else?

Re: What to eat in Atlanta?

in my personal opinion, I think Dunk's is the best. why? well, even though krispy kreme doughnuts are good, they are A) not filling B) there is not as much of a variety there than at dunks. then when you take dunks vs. starbucks, i prefer dunk's again because A) price/volume of coffee B) when you order coffee, the guy doesnt ask you "which flavor." you get coffee flavored coffee, as black as it gets.

Re: What to eat in Atlanta?

If you want to argue KK vs DD, go here,
There are plenty of both vendors in the Atlanta area, and as for coffee, I thin Starbucks is the best you'll find, there aren't any other specialized coffee shops.

As to Soul Food(tm), I believe there's a place on 14th street called the Country Kitchen that has good suthen food (thre are probably multiple places called the Country Kitchen in Georgia, but any would fill this niche) though I must warn you that, like The Varsity, grease and fat are probably important ingredients in everything they'd serve.

Re: What to eat in Atlanta?

If there is a sushi restaunt near the competition site or my hotel, then I would be more than happy. As for a caffine fix, a coulple Mountain Dews in the AM has always given me the boost I need to start out the day. Even though I do tend to get a few headaches in the afternoon from fluctuating blood-sugar levels.

Re: What to eat in Atlanta?

My dad mentioned a few places in Atlanta that he thought were pretty cool, unfortunately I can't remember the names exactly.

One is in the CNN building, its this english pub called something pub. He said if you want real English food, its good.

Then the second he mentioned is a place, I think he said its in underground Atlanta, is something down the hatch. Its like a jazz place in a big boat or something. haha.
