I work across the street from there. How do I make a tour happen?

Watch their Facebook or Twitter, they'll put up tour dates on there and registration links.

I don't know if they'll be doing any more between now and the T-SPLOST vote.

Hey all, the Ponce City Market is doing tours of the building and its connection to the Beltline for the TSPLOST vote. The only opening is July 18th, so hurry up and register. It's free!

Anyone going to the atlanta street food festival this weekend besides me? http://www.atlantastreetfoodfestival.com/

Since I haven't been to the Food Truck Park yet, I'm definitely going to swing by the festival before going to The Matrix Live.

I like West Egg, although I have to admit the food has been hit or miss depending on who is working in the back. I miss you, Chicken n' Dumplins Pot Pie.

Bone Lick BBQ (from the P'cheen people) is scheduled to open this coming week (if I recall correctly) on the Westside on Huff. I've heard and read good things about the BBQ nights at P'cheen, so I'm looking forward to giving it a try.

I had Bone Lick BBQ today for lunch, they opened up today. Not sure what to make it so far, just that the BBQ sandwich and mac n' cheese left my mouth burning. Quite spicy.

Definitely will be going back, especially when they have beer.

I ate dinner there today. I thought it was good, but not exactly what I want in terms of BBQ. I'm not exactly sure how to describe my experience, but I kind of felt it was too refined for BBQ.

The (pork & pork &) beans were good, but I didn't love my pork sandwich. The ratio of slaw and picks to pork was too high. Less slaw and pickles and more meat, and I would have liked it more.

It was their first day open, and I know not to make any judgments on such a small sampling on opening day, so I won't form any sort of permanent opinion yet. Anyway, I'm happy to have another BBQ place near home and will probably be visit with some regularity.

Was it just me, or was the sandwiches packed with jalape�os? I was burning up after the mac n' cheese and sandwich. I also felt there was way too much of the cole slaw on top (and under) of the meat. Sneaky sneaky.

Ammazza just opened up in the Old 4th Ward last night, I had a chance to go try some of their pizza. Fantastic.

Such a neat place, and I believe they get their liquor license today! Woo!

Grapevine has it that Deckard's American Tavern on Ponce closed.

Eulogy: The food was pretty good for the price, I guess, and their beer list was above average. We'll have to find another place for lunchtime work functions.

Yep. Deckard's American Tavern and Ribs & Blues (on 5th Street) have shuttered.

Woah, Ribs & Blues is gone? Did they have the same owner?

The last time I went there was a year and a half ago. Cheap pitchers next door to my office.

The same owner as Deckards? I'm assuming not.

Yeah, I stopped by there at work (started at GT a few months ago) for lunch. Sad it closed, it was always the go-to place for beer during Taste of Atlanta.

I used to work on 5th, sad to see them go.

I had no idea they had been around for 9 years.

No, it's really just that people were pretty inconsiderate when walking around, leaving their carts in the middle of aisles, cutting in front of others, etc. I guess some lady bumped into her in the bathroom and yelled at her for some reason. It was very crowded and I think it just flustered her. I didn't really have a problem besides being mildly annoyed that carts were blocking of a majority of the produce section.

That's my feeling on the place - its busy. If you're used to going to Publix in Roswell or Alpharetta, the Farmers Market is going to be a major change in pace.

Plus, it gets downright hectic on weekends. Not good if you want to browse.

Antico is by far the best pizza around (highest Zagat score for a pizza place in the US, named best Neapolitan pizza by the Festa della Pizza in Naples, etc).

I prefer the original Tasty China to #2 (I'm also pretty sure I got the most awful food poisoning at 2).

List is missing Holeman & Finch and Restaurant Eugene.

I'd give Ammazza a try for pizza.

I've gone there three times already. IT OWNS IT OWNS IT OWNS. I can't recommend it enough. The cocktails were very reasonable and very good. I had the bourbon sour; the foam from the egg white was the right consistency and I liked the added chili powder to balance out the sweet/sour flavor in a normal sour.

This is fantastic. I have a friend who actually just got a job there, so now I've got more reasons to stop by and check it out. Sounds like the place gets pretty crazy though on weekend nights.
