Drinks & Nightlife
This is an old house that was renovated into a bar. The back deck has a gorgeous view of the city. The 'male' bartender gives generous pours of wine and the owners, Billie and Suzanne, are always there to make sure everyone is happy. Billie even sings in the house band, which plays on most nights.

I love this area because it's a little grungy and different than Buckhead. You will enjoy people watching, excellent consignment shops, bars, and restaurants as well as the Horizon Theater where you can see a play.

Food Scene
Chops is a little pricey, but their steaks are the best in town and they make great dirty martinis. They are part of the Bulkhead Life restaurants, which also includes some of my other favorites like Kyma, Bistro Niko, and Pricci's (1/2 off bottles on Thursday nights).

Essentials
There is a brand new, very large Kroger south of my home near Home Depot and the Lindbergh Marta Station. It's almost as large as a Costco store. There's also a Kroger north of my home on Piedmont.
