Georgia Pit BBQ, on South Cobb Dr in Smyrna next to JR Crickets in the old Bruester's ice cream space. Banner on outside declares it's open for business.

http://www.georgiapitbbq.com/  Given it's proximity to me, not sure how I missed this.

Atlanta Business Chronicle reports that Waffle House has purchased a parcel of land at the corner of Int'l Blvd and Centennial Park Blvd to open a "showcase" Waffle House [showcasing the hickeys on the waitresses' necks perhaps?].  No timeline for opening set.

Heard that on WABE this morning.  It is to have 43 seats which is 20% more than your average Waffle House.

After years and years of turning onto Sam's Crossing from College Ave, I recently nothiced the Waffle House museum on College. Wonder if that will stay put? Anyhow, maybe they could take some of the monster trucks from the 1996 olymipcs and park them outside the new "showcase" Waffle House right in the middle of tourist-central. Yee haw, ya'll!

there's no doubt that the WH Museum will stay put. the reason it's there is because that buidling is the original Waffle House and after they were able to purchase the property they spent a couple of years restoring the building. they don't serve any actual food there. I remember buying Chinese food from there when it was called Hunan Express when I first moved into the neighborhood back in 2001.
a Waffle House downtown in the midst of all those hotels will make a FORTUNE!!!

There's evidently a new Cuban restaurant opening in downtown Roswell.  I think it's named Luis' or something similar.  I was driving by and noticed a new green sign and what appeared to be a building still under renovation.  The location is odd but not much more odd than the tucked away and hidden Artisan Bakery... the new Cuban place is next to Corner Grocery on Woodstock.  Any Roswell folks have any more info on this?

A few months ago I met the young chef opening this place and mentioned I spent many moons in South Florida and was picky about my Cuban food. He said I would have no complaints with the authenticity of his, so I am looking forward to the opening. Wish I could remember his name......

The name looks like Lazaro's from the sign.  Not sure of their opening date.

Funny, I drove by the intersection and from a distance (in the daylight) it looked like Lupe's.  Guess I'll just have to park and go look.

Their website is http://lazaroscuisine.com/ from the sign.  Says opening Mid November?

SmashBurger is up to six locations in the area, on its way to 20 according to plans.  The one in Kennesaw just opened in the strip on Barrett Parkway in front of the mall.

I'm holding out for a Shake Shack to come to Atlanta.

A new Carribean place "Jerks" is opening soon on Spring Rd. in Smyrna. I couldn't see a date from the road, but the signage is up. It's in the same shopping center as Lucky 13 pizza.
