    The Best Items From Chick-fil-A’s Secret Menu

    4 Min Read

    Believe or not, but relatively few people know about Chick-Fil-A’s secret menu. What do you know about it?

    This article is going to show you some items on Chick-fil-A’s secret menu. If you’re familiar with Dwarf House, the original Chick-fil-A, the secret food menu is something you know all about.

    Chick-fil-A is part and parcel made of red Georgia clay. This is indisputable ever since a small eatery called the Dwarf Grille opened right under Atlanta’s nose in tiny Hapeville, Georgia back in 1946. Since then millions have become loyal fans of the restaurant known for the bad-spelling cows singing how to “Eat More Chiken.”

    What’s On Chick-fil-A’s Secret Menu?

    How do you get to see Chick-Fil-A’s secret menu? You generally can’t be the drive-thru — these are dine-in options only. And you’ve got to ask (be nice) one of the workers. That’s how you’ll get to try some of these awesome secret recipes via Chick-Fil-A’s secret menu.

    Spicy Chicken And Egg Biscuit

    The Spicy Chicken and Egg Biscuit is something you’ll never see on the Chick-fil-A menu, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have it.

    How To Order It: Just tell the cashier that you want to add egg to your Chicken Biscuit.

    Buffalo Chicken Sandwich

    The Buffalo Chicken Sandwich is what you get when you ask for hot sauce on your Chicken Sandwich. The way they do it is just great.

    The Double Decker Sandwich

    The Double Decker Sandwich is one that very few Chick-fil-A servers can master. But for those that do, it’s a great treat.

    Chicken Quesadilla

    Chicken Quesadillas aren’t something you’d normally think would be served at Chick-fil-A, but this food item is so good that it should be added officially.

    Spicy Charbroiled Chicken Sandwich

    We all know that chicken is Chick-fil-A’s thing, so this Spicy Charbroiled Chicken Sandwich is a specialty that is right up their alley.

    The Double Double Down

    Special shoutout to the Instagram accounts @nocatsgotluv4me and @pass_the_salt and @hack_themenu for their endeavors in the world of secret menus. Check them all out for more food hacks.

    How Do You Order From Chick-fil-A’s Secret Menu?

    Chick-fil-A’s secret menu can be ordered by asking an employee for some of the options available. That means you can substitute turkey for chicken on the chicken sandwich. That means you can add hot sauce to your chicken tenders. You can also get an assortment of sauces applied to your Waffle Fries.

    Final Word

    If you’ve ever been to Chick-fil-A, you may know that those delicious chicken biscuits or waffle fries can be ordered a number of ways. One reason why is because Chick-fil-A has a secret menu.

    There are so many good things to eat at Chick-fil-A. You can also try the restaurant’s Little Blue Menu.

I’m not a big fan of the plain fried rice, but for $1.50 more you can upgrade to pork fried rice. In addition, the wings are small but are very much worth the low price.”

    Last Words

    If all you want is great food, drinks and a TV, Atlanta has some of the best sports bars in the Southeast, not to mention being a craft beer oasis. You also may want to visit a craft brewery in the city.

  • Keith Lee Returning To Atlanta As Part of ‘Redemption Tour’

    5 Min Read

    Food critic Keith Lee stopped in Atlanta several months after his original Georgia good tour. While he was supposed to do a food tour proper, he switched things up unexpectedly by making an appearance in the city on Wednesday, April 3, 2024.

    “There’s been a change of plans. Let’s talk about it. The next half of the food tour is not Atlanta,” he said. Explaining that he was going to be giving away free food, the Detroit-based food critic said there were some parties that pulled up with the intent to make a dollar and he wanted it made clear that they weren’t with him.

    Will he come back to Atlanta for a food tour? We’ll see.

    In late March, Lee announced on his Instagram that he and his family will be doing a “Redemption Tour,” for 2024, with Atlanta being the #1 spot on his list.

    He stressed that there will be no do-overs, in other words, he won’t be returning to the same restaurants.

    “This is a redemption tour: it’s not a good tour, meaning we’re not going to the same spots we went to last time,” he said. “This is a completely fresh slate.”

    Things will be a little different though as the Lee family will have security with them this time, he said.

    “We come in peace,” he said, a reference to the ruffled feathers that occurred last time he did a food jaunt through the city.

    So where should Lee go? He mentioned that his focus this time will be mom-and-pop restaurants and food spots voted on by his followers, so here is a potential list.

    What Atlanta Restaurants Should Keith Lee Visit?

    K&K Soul Food

    881 Donald Lee Hollowell Pkwy NW, Atlanta, GA 30318

    best black-owned restaurants in Atlanta

    The original Bankhead Restaurant has been cooking home-style meals for the southwest Atlanta community since the 1960s. Now called K&K Soul Food, the eatery, which has been owned for the same family for 40 years, continues to be a standout spot for cafeteria-style soul food. Today the restaurant is run by Kimario Smith, who took over for his mother and grandmother. With its famed Pork Chop plate and Steak plate both priced at $6.99, K&K Soul Food is one of the cheapest — and best — square meals you can find in Atlanta.

    One K & K Soul Food reviewer on Facebook said this: “Good SoulFood. Taste like somebody’s Auntie definitely in the kitchen.”

    Buttermilk Biscuits

    1634 Virginia Ave, Atlanta, GA 30337

    Buttermilk Biscuit has the best breakfast in Atlanta.

    Tucked inside quaint shopping center Virginia Station off in College Park, Buttermilk Biscuits packs a big breakfast punch. Here’s what one reviewer says about Buttermilk Biscuits.

    “The Belgian waffles were melt-in-your-mouth wonderful. Fried chicken breast was seasoned and cooked to crisp and juicy perfection, and the grits… I am a grits snob. There are literally only 3 or 4 restaurants in Atlanta that I refer others to when asked.”

    Aviva by Kameel Coming To Buckhead

    Rosemary chicken at Avia by Kameel in Atlanta.

    Aviva by Kameel is one of the best Mediterranean restaurants in Atlanta and expanding to Buckhead.

    Kelz Kitchen opens in Atlanta, Georgia

    If you’re in the mood for some Coastal Carolina goodness, Kelz Kitchen is the place to check out. The eatery has two Atlanta locations.

    Here’s what one reviewer says of Kelz Kitchen: “Omg when I tell you the lollipop lamb chops were cooked to perfection and the Salmon was grilled so well. The broccoli was fresh and the corn on the cob was sweet. I also enjoyed the pound cake with a Lemonade. I wish I could give this place 10 stars. Food is cooked to orders I recommend ordering online. They only accept debit cards just a heads up.”

    Ms. Icey’s Kitchen & Bar

    1371 Clairmont Rd, Decatur, GA 30033

    Ms. Icey's - The Best Soul Food Restaurants In Atlanta

    The newest soul food spot in Decatur comes from owner and restaurateur Sim Walker, whose New York City rearing comes through in the vibe. Ms. Icey’s, named after Walker’s grandmother, is Decatur’s best-kept secret even though it has quickly become a culturally hip gathering place for those in the know. When cornbread comes in an iron skillet, and oxtails do as well, you know you’re in a foodie’s dream. Not only are many of the dishes a nod to Southern and soul food culture, but the drinks are mostly handcrafted, giving the place an organic life. The sweet potato waffles are to d

    Review: Buttermilk Biscuit in College Park

    3 Min Read

    One of the best places to eat in College Park (technically Atlanta) is Buttermilk Biscuit, which opened a few months ago. I had originally tried it on its second day of operation, and there were only a few customers inside.

    When I came back a month later, the place was pretty much packed. Its hours run from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., so you’d better get there early if you want a good seat.

    How To Find Buttermilk Biscuit

    Buttermilk Biscuit is located at 634 Virginia Ave, Atlanta, GA 30337. Here’s a map to help you find it.

    What I Ordered

    Ok, so I’ve gone there several times. The first two times I ordered the Cajun Shrimp and Grits, which come with creamy grits, jumbo shrimp, sautéed spinach, peppers and onions, cherry tomatoes, award winning Cajun cream sauce.

    After that, I ordered my go-to: The Early Bird, which is four crispy chicken wings, served with our famous waffles, powdered sugar, and maple butter.

    Buttermilk Biscuit menu in Atlanta.

    You also have the choice of different butters for a 50 cent upcharge: Blueberry Butter, Strawberry Butter, Maple Butter and Peach Butter.

    The waffles, which have just the right crunchiness on the ends, but are soft in the middle, come sprinkled with confection sugar, which I love. The chicken wings are sizeable and are seasoned in the Southern tradition. The meal may look like small to some, but you’ll be full when you finish. At least, I was.

    The customer service was still trying to settle down after opening recently, but the to-go orders are fast and accurate. You have to order on the Toast app to get your food, which is an efficient process.

    Overall, Buttermilk Biscuit Gets an A

    An A Grade, means it’s worth your while and I would say Buttermilk Biscuit makes the grade with ease.

    Final Word

    Atlanta is having a restaurant renaissance. Hot chicken is the rage in Atlanta’s dining scene right now. But so are chicken and waffles.

    Where To Get Bottomless Mimosas In Atlanta

    5 Min Read

    Are you in the mood for some orange juice and champagne?

    This article will show you some of the best places to get bottomless mimosas in Atlanta.

    Why Are Mimosas So Popular?

    You may think a concoction with orange juice as its primary ingredient wouldn’t have the magnetic effect it has on the brunch crowd, but mimosas are not your average adult beverage.

    Drink lore has it that mimosas became popular a short distance from Ellis Island in New York as European immigrants bought their customs, cultures, and yes, mimosas, to America. The mimosa experience spread up and down the East Coast before branching out west.

    Today the tasty drink is a mainstay at brunches across the Western world, including here in Atlanta.

Second time, I just went out for a night drink, but caught great vibes with random people; we bonded over the music. Finally today; this was the best time I visited.

I ordered my steak medium and it came out well-done so that’s was a bummer. But I had some of the waffle and home fries which were amazing.”
