Breaking News


IHOP Corp. said it has agreed to sell 41 company-operated Applebee’s Neighborhood Grill & Bar restaurants to the brand’s largest franchisee, Apple American Group of San Francisco. Terms were not disclosed.

i don't see applebee's lasting to much longer they've been going down hill for a long time. maybe one of the new franchise owners can make some better food and train a decent server people would go back there.

good wings

best Barbecue in town

dreamland BBQ is the best BBQ in atlanta by far. ive been all over town searching for a good place to hang out and enjoy some good southern barbecue. the service is pertty good and you get a great value. Heres a little history.

When the subject of Southern legends comes up, Dreamland should no doubt be mentioned in the same breath as George Wallace, Bear Bryant and Bo Jackson. "Big Daddy" Bishop and crew started outside of Tuscaloosa, took a simple concept (ribs, their signature sauce, and a few pieces of white Sunbeam bread) and, over the years, developed it into something that can be described only as down-home gourmet. While the neophyte Atlanta sibling can't quite boast the character of the original Jerusalem Heights, AL, location, it's not really atmosphere that people hail Dreamland for. Indeed, the ribs truly steal the show. As the saying goes, "Ain't nothing like' em nowhere!"
