Al-Amin Restaurant
📍 Address: 5466 Buford Hwy NE, Atlanta
⭐ Stars:⭐⭐⭐⭐ (3.5)
We tried ordering food from this place through Yelp. The person who answered the phone couldn't get our order right and we ended up waiting for 2 hours and then just cancelled. It's fine though it happens. We did dine in one time and the food was pretty good actually. I had the palak paneer and Biryani. Went back a couple more times!
Grindhouse Killer Burgers

I'm a fan! The Burger with American Cheese, Mustard and Pickles was excellent, juicy and done just right! I love Crinkle Cut Fries but these were way over cooked. Parking is an issue! place looks great and well designed! I enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere! I'll be back!
Cafe Bica
📍 Address: 1809 Fir Street, Vancouver
⭐ Stars:⭐⭐⭐ (3)
Having read some of the reviews posted on Yelp, I was leery of the reception I'd get from staff at Cafe Bica, but they were friendly and engaging from the moment I walked in. They may just be the best coffee house wait staff in the city! All the food I've eaten at Cafe Bica has been good (steel-cut oatmeal, croissant, bean and proscuitto salad, and biscuits). The servings tend to be on the small side, but the quality is very good. My only criticism is that I've been told for about six weeks now that a catering menu is in the works, but it never seems to materialize. The photos below don't do justice to the interior. It's fresh and clean and minimalist, although the tables may be a tad bit crowded. To sum up, I would meet a friend at cafe Bica for a coffee and a snack - I'd even be very happy to hang with the staff for a couple of hours. And if I'm totally honest, they could help me watch my weight.
Voodoo Doughnut - Old Town
📍 Address: 22 SW 3rd Ave, Portland

I've been wanting to go to Voodoo doughnuts for many years now after seeing them featured on food network. The hype did not disappoint. These doughnuts were worth the half hour wait, and then some!! My favorite was the Memphis mafia!!
Mediterranea
📍 Address: 332 Ormond St SE, Atlanta
⭐ Stars:⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4.5)
The best thing was that this is a fully GF restaurant. Celiac-safe was such a relief and so appreciated!! But the service was so so so slow. It was busy on a Sunday, but it took almost half an hour until a waiter took my order (I think they need more staff for crowded times). The delicious sounding french toast was sold out. And when my meal came, a tasty Mediterranean platter, it was missing a key element: the egg. But what I did have was tasty. Highlights of the Mediterranean breakfast were the delicious crackers, the dolma, the fig compote, and the olives were so flavorful! They also have a big selection of GF bakery items (get treats to go)! I will definitely be back!!

Between the great food and the PERFECT beer I can't wait to go there again. I will visit it every time I am there! The wings were great and surprising and the salmon was perfect with my beer choices.
