Entrees are about $25-$35, sides a-la-carte. their wine selection is allright, but not spectacular

i had their horseradish crusted grouper, which was pretty much awesome.

German Beirfest Saturday at Atlantic Station from 2-8:00. $30 and you can drink all the German beer your heart desires, in 92 degree heat. Good times!!

Any of y'all play kickball this summer? End of season party tonight at Twisted Taco. I'll be there and fairly hammered.

^ yeah, pretty much how i saw it too. i didn't get out there until 6:00, though, so it had cooled off some. we eventually found a both with a short line and just sat back there and got hammered as much as we could before 8:00. then went out, ended up shutting down the clermont lounge. dj romeo cologne, best dj in the state!

i've decided that i have a new litmus test for any women i meet. if they'll go to clermont with me, drink pbr's and ask romeo cologne to play "just be good to me" by the s.o.s. band, then they're keepers.

yeah, i think so. he basically just plays disco and r&b from the 70's/early 80's, so it sounds like the same guy. he's at the clermont every saturday night, normally gets there around 12:30-1:00. good place to roll to if you're out in the highlands on a saturday night and want to dance. or mjq, but i prefer cheap pbr and old boobies to breakdancing

i went to jocks and jills in midtown on saturday (yeah traffic was a bit worse than normal because of the game/concerts) for the game - i was pretty impressed with the little setup the alumni club has down there - the side semi-private room near the restrooms was blocked off for ncsu alumni - there were about 15-20 people or so there - trivia during half-time was decent - the prizes weren't anything special but it was still fun - service was decent but the fact that we walked into a very very packed bar and got a table with ease made me not care that it was slow at times

the girl running it said that the same area will be blocked off for every televised game this year - it appeared to me that the same space was used for multiple alumni clubs though - so if 2 games overlap i'm not quite sure what happens

any tips on companies in/around atlanta looking for a mechanical engineer with product development/product testing/vehicle dynamics/data acquisition/data analysis skills? everything i'm finding is generally PEM hvac positions, for which i don't have any experience.

more than likely going to be at jocks and jills for the game again - the alumni club added a cobb county location and even though i'm in cobb county it's further from me than the midtown location

recommended sushi places?

went to zuma this past weekend - it was good and reasonably priced i thought- under $75 with a bottle of wine and 3 rolls - we were only really impressed with 1 of the rolls we ordered and it could have been just the ones we got as opposed to the place not being good

If you can afford it, the Geisha House has some really good and unique stuff...but it ain't cheap

also the sushi at Harry and Sons in Va Highlands is good

going north on cobb parkway from 285, there's a strip mall with an olive garden on the right. go in that strip mall, there's a small authentic Japanese restaurant called yakitori jinbei. the guy who owns it used to have a restaurant in Tokyo. The staff is super friendly and will likely remember you on your second visit. If you are looking for good food without the pretentious atmosphere i guarantee this is the best sushi and yakitori (charcoal grilled chicken and pork) in Atlanta.



apparently they have a website

Real Chow Baby is the most similar to Bali Hai - and fantastic, but crowded.

I have seen Yakitori a lot of times but haven't tried it yet. Now I will!
