• Buttermilk Biscuit menu review in Atlanta.

    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.

    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.

  • How to Make A Taco

    How To Make Tacos Like Your Favorite Atlanta Restaurant

    4 Min Read

    We all love to go out to eat from time to time, but there’s nothing like cooking at home. What’s for dinner? Homemade tacos!

    Have you ever thought about creating tacos yourself? It’s not hard! You can make them just like your favorite Atlanta restaurant that serves Mexican fare. In this article, we’re going to show you how from the best taco recipe we have.

    Before we show you how to create a taco that rocks, let’s get into what makes a perfect taco.

    How To Make A Taco

    A taco consists of a tortilla made of wheat or corn. If you cook it just a bit, you’ll have the right consistency and texture you need to fill the taco with ground beef, chicken or some other meat.

    Speaking of meat, you may be wondering what you can put inside of a taco. Here are just some of the fillings you can use for a taco:

    • Ground beef
    • Pork
    • Chicken
    • Fish (salmon, catfish, halibut, etc.)
    • Cheese
    • Vegetable medley

    There is so much you can do with a taco and so many ways to create one. Because it is a dish that lends itself to so much diversity and variety, the taco is truly a global food.

    Along with the meat filling, you want to add some other things, such as some type of greenery and spices, sauces and other condiments.

    Here Is The Best Taco Recipe

    To make this awesome taco, you’re going to need several ingredients, including cheese and other toppings. We’re going to go over everything, but first, let’s talk about the meat you need to use.

    What kind of beef should you use?

    It’s best to use 100% lean ground beef in your taco, but even 90% will work. You don’t want a lot of grease to be in your tortilla. So, you don’t want your beef to be too fatty.

    I personally use Pace Taco mild seasoning and sprinkle it over my beef.

    As an alternative, you can also use Yoders Canned Taco Seasoned Beef if you want everything already done for you.

    Instructions

    • Turn your stove’s heat up to medium high
    • Add your ground beef in a skillet
    • Add garlic pepper, salt, oregano, garlic powder and chili powder
    • Cook the beef while tossing it periodically
    • Once the beef is about done, add tomato sauce
    • Add water if you want to stretch the sauce, but if not, no water
    • Once the sauce is brought to a boil, set oven to low
    How to make tacos - best taco recipe

    Here are just some of the non-meat fillings you can use in a taco:

    • Salsa
    • Shredded cheese
    • guacamole
    • sour cream
    • vegetables
    • lettuce
    • onion
    • tomatoes
    • chiles

    Now let’s get into the measurements of the ingredients you need the best taco recipe to take shape:

    Taco Ingredients

    • Taco shells (hard shells or soft tortillas)
    • 1 lb. 90% to 100% lean ground beef
    • 1 tablespoon of chili powder
    • 1/2 cup tomato sauce
    • 1 white onion cut in 1/2 inch rounds
    • 3/4 teaspoon salt
    • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
    • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
    • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano (optional)
    • 1/4 cup water (optional)

Would recommend & definitely return again.”

    Hippin’ Hops Brewery & Oyster Bar opened in early 2021 to rave reviews. The eastside Atlanta business is the only black-owned brewery in Georgia.

    Here’s what one customer says about the brewery: “Great service and even better oysters! I got the Rockefeller Oysters, they were to die for! Keenan was very attentive in making sure all guests were taken care of, If I lived closer I’d stop by multiple times a week! They occasionally have a live DJ and usually have games playing on the TV. There’s a nice little outdoor game area with jumbo jenga blocks and corn hole! 10/10 recommend.”
