Restaurants
Angelo Brocato’s
After dinner comes dessert. And it’s even better from one of New Orleans’ oldest dessert cafes (at Angelo Brocato’s)
Crescent City Steak House
The Steak Knife turned out to be closed on Sundays, but that’s just a minor setback for a player like me! LOL (at Crescent City Steak House)
Live Jazz at Acoustix, Atlanta GA
Acoustix Jazz Restaurant and Lounge is a fairly-upscale spot on Marietta Street in Atlanta, west of downtown. It features a restaurant with live jazz of a more traditional sort until 11 PM on weekends, and a downstairs basement lounge called the Alley which features more neo-soul, funk and contemporary jazz and which stays open slightly later. Parking can be hard to come by, and seats can fill up quickly, so it’s good to make reservations, or at least arrive early. You can keep up with the live music schedule at http://www.acoustixjazz.com/, or like them on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/acoustixjazz.

Curly’s Fried Chicken, Atlanta GA
Intrigued by Yelp reviews, I made it a point to swing by Curly’s Fried Chicken in West Atlanta Saturday, and I’m glad I did. The place is nothing fancy, just a walk-up window with some outside seating, but the fried chicken is outstanding, lightly seasoned with a crunchy outside and tender, juicy inside. Chicken comes either regular, or dipped in Curly’s “secret” sauce. Prices are reasonable.
