About us
It is very important that we all make sure we can receive MeetUp messages on the fly in very short time.
Sometimes its necessary to contact members about an event - and sometimes that's within short hours of the event (like an hour or 2 or 4 before the event) - to check that you're still attending or whatnot. We've had where our members do not get messages - or don't respond to them - and as I hope you understand, that makes it close to impossible to run this group of over 500 people well enough to be fair to all of us and certainly to be considerate of the restaurants we attend.
I like to think of us all as friends - even if we're still to have met - and its best if we are all on that same page.
Join us to discover, and rediscover, restaurants in the Atlanta area. If you are up for some adventure, we will also plan some great foodie trips beyond Atlanta. So great food, great conversation and new friends? A winning combination. We keep our events small, so expect dinners for 4-8 members only.
What do we ask in return? That you check out the menu and check your calendar before signing up. No last minute cancellations, and definitely no "no-shows". It's unfair to the rest of the group AND to the restaurant. Anyone canceling same day or not showing up will be removed from the group. Policies may change for certain events so make sure to read the fine print!

Füm (Rhymes with "yum")
Füm - Atlanta, 660 11th Street NW, Atlanta, GA, USSomeone recommended Füm. IDK much about it, but it looks interesting. How about joining us for dinner?
Here's a link to the resto Füm if you want to take a look.
From OpenTable:
Füm is a contemporary Italian restaurant rooted in craft, fire, and community.
We make food the slow way – honoring time & technique.
Our pastas are handmade every day, using the best ingredients we can source. Flour, eggs, time & repetition – no shortcuts, no boxes. Just craft, muscle memory and tradition.Cooking with live fire shapes everything we do – how food tastes, how the room breathes and how our people connect. Our open hearth is the heart of our kitchen, grounding the space with warmth, sound and movement.
We dry-age our own meats because time transforms everything. Flavor develops in stillness and restraint is its own form of skill.At the bar, we approach cocktails with the same mindset and philosophy as our food – balance, clarity and intention. No fuss, no theatrics - just clean, confident cocktails made for our grandioso bar.

Pink Lotus - Thai
Pink Lotus Thai Restaurant, 976 Brady Avenue NW, Atlanta, GA, USIDK how I heard about Pink Lotus, but I love Thai. Let's check it out!!
Here's a link to the restaurant if you want to take a look: Pink Lotus Resto
Here's a description from Resy:
Pink Lotus Thai Restaurant will spotlight the lesser-known side of Thai cuisine. Our menu focuses on regional specialties rarely seen in American Thai restaurants—dishes like Mieng Kum (a central Thai classic featuring Betel leaves filled with coconut, peanuts, lime, ginger, and sweet palm sugar sauce.), Kaeng Rawan (a southern Thai curry served with beef short rib, known for its rich coconut milk base, bold spices, and vibrant, balanced heat), and Pla Pao (a whole salt-crusted fish, slowly grilled over charcoal). Served in a shareable, tapas-style format, Pink Lotus brings a new kind of Thai dining experience to Atlanta—one rooted in tradition, yet refreshingly unexpected.

Sharon's Birthday!! (Marcel)
Marcel, 1170 Howell Mill Rd Nw, Atlanta, GA, USIts Sharon's birthday (on June 13th) !! If you'd like to celebrate Sharon with us .... Let's celebrate!!
Here's a link to Marcel: Marcel!
From the restaurant:
A brief and recent history of restaurants: First, there were places of taste and pastimes and chiaroscuro lighting and low piano notes of laughter; places of urbane chat over classic dishes and cocktails and wines and—of course, of course—steaks made the right way. Those were the days. Then people got fancy with their food and tried new things. Good for them. But they always come back. Classic is classic because classic serves, and serves well.
And here we are again, back to the beginnings at Marcel, a first-rate steakhouse and bar by Ford Fry. Named after Marcel Cerdan, the iconic French fighter-romantic who endured ring rumbles, war, marriage, a famous affair with Edith Piaf (and could only be stopped from seeing his love when his plane crashed into a mountain), Marcel is a return to the days when people appreciated every moment, when dull care was forgotten, when love lingered over the best meals—including, pound-for-pound, the best steaks money can buy.
Let’s not take ourselves too seriously. But life is short, so let’s seriously enjoy this excellent cuisine, this cheery company.
