Nori Nori
First Minado, then Badayori and now Nori Nori... I thought they committed seppuku a long time ago.
Changing your name like changing your underpants doesn't mean your junk will taste any better... Well, in most cases until I made another visit to this specimen.
The entire place looks the same since the first retarded brother was born. The entire setup from the food stations, tables, chairs, plates (still has Minado on it), cups to the utensils... Shit, even the cooks, whom none were of Asian decent unless the elastic from the hair net pulled their eyes back.
Ok, ok... What about the food Fraudie, you ask? It ain't too shabby... For what it is. I went for dinner to sample everything they can poop out from the rear... kitchen. You got all your nigiris, rolls, salads, noodles, assorted hot foods (fried, steam and what not), crepes and bite size desserts. Sashimi, uni, crab legs and oysters were only available at dinner hours.
It ain't top grade sooshe but do you really expect it to be from a Jimmy buffet? It's colorful and doesn't smell like my last girlfriend... which is a big plus in my book. They don't push the rice policy, so those WHO don't like RICE at sushi BUFFETS can hide at least half of it under some oyster shells. The only thing I found ugly were the sashimi... They were hacked up pieces of chum, not slices, more like cubes, rectangles and triangles. It got real tiresome real fast.
Stuff your face as much as you want because it has improved a lot since inception and way better than Ru Shizzy's... Plus, they don't yell gibberish at you when you walk in. Screw you, sake bombs... That's what the bathroom's for.
Thanks Fat America, you did it again!!!

Their website had me at... "(these broth are cooked for more than 18 hours...Wow!!!)" and supposedly without MSG. Hmmmmm...
I said "Can this be twue... Wow!!!?"
So I asked the hot lil mama-san what can I get for $7.99... She said "Any Pho you want, even the combo-nation wit evey ting". Then I asked her if it was really an 18 hour broth and she looked down at her lovely little lady lumps and thought I said 18 hour bra. She ran off...
I tasted the bwoth and it must be a typo, make that "0.18 hours". It wasn't terrible but it definitely wasn't 18 hours. Don't knock my my mom but is it too much to ask for a lil nuoc mam in there? You know.... For flava?
Rice noodles were clumpy and clumsy, the rare beef tenderloin, beef ball, well-done beef shank & beef brisket were sparse but tender and tastee. I was kinda shocked they didn't have tendon... Who doesn't like a little moose knuckle from time to time? Came with all your standard fixings except they included one other thing... Iceberg lettuce. Wtf? I'm not making a sandwich.
Seafood Net Rolls - I got these as a goof and boy, were they goofy. Over fried, hard to bite into, and the seafood "pate" tasted store bought. The dipping sauce was Karo syrup with chili pepper flakes. Meh.
I rather waste my time and money at Super H across the stweet, more choices to choose from and cheaper! Overall, the pho is pretty comparable to others ITP on Buford Hwy. Nothing to write mama-san about.
2.5 Stars.

Delicious Kabob Chinese Restaurant
My phone starts buzzing in the middle of the afternoon... Non stop. I look at it... It's my good pal Blissful Glutton (she prefers "lap" tho). She starts yapping like a Yenta about some lamb and it's cumming. I ain't into bestiality. I'm like, wimman... You. Must. Chill. Speak Engrish because I don't understand that Yiddish you chosen people speak.
She catches her bweath and tells me to run, don't walk... To this new Chino joint. So, this fraudie, I mean foodie... Had to investigate. I walk in about 5:30pm and my friggin phone starts ringing again... Well, if it isn't the motherly BG. I'm trying to look thru the menu and listen to her telling me what to order at the same time. I gave in... Yes, mom.
Ok, here's the run down since I didn't want to double up on what she tried... But I did anyways on a couple dishes.
Lamb Kabobs- Cummin seeds explode in your mouth like fireworks. Tender, smokey, bits of char and defined flavors. BG's text to me "SO FU*KING GOOD". Nuff said.
Chicken Stomach Kabobs- Ok, this ain't for the roundeyes even if they have a Chinese stomach. Same great flavors as the lamb but it's offal... This is definitely an acquired taste if you never had innards like stomach, gizzard, heart, liver, uterus, balls or wangs. It wasn't awful.
Szechuan Crispy Beef- Thinly shaved beef battered and fried to a heavenly crisp w/ whole chili peppers and cilantro. Delish but could use some more "ma la".
Tofu Skin w/ Peppers- This is like Chinese pappardelle, tofu style with green peppers and pork in a light sauce. Didn't looked that appetizing at first but I couldn't stop eating it... Down pouch!
Guo Bao Pork- Fried pork cutlets in a sweet brown sauce. Seems very Americanized but it's Chino all the way. You whities will love it!
I hate it every time BG calls me out of the blue and tells me about a great place because she knows I can't resist stuffing my fat buddha every chance I get, even if it's in a shady strip mall. At least the Doraville PD is around the corner, just don't try to hump their car window like a dog... Like I said before, I ain't into bestiality.
BG is an enabler.
3.5 Stars but much more to explore.

Consumption JCT, what's your function?

Consumption JCT, how's that function?
I got three favorite dishes
That get most of my cravings done.
Consumption JCT, what's their function?
I got "ass", "butt", and "more",
They'll get me pretty fat.
"Ass":
That's an additive, like "Eat this ass gets fat".
"Butt":
That's sort of the opposite, "Not thin butt fat".
And then there's "More":
M-O-R-E, when you have a choice like
"Bacon wrapped trout or Springer Mt fwied chicken".
"Ass", "Butt", and "More",
Get you pretty fat.
Consumption JCT, what's your function?
Hooking up two To-Go boxes and taking 'em out right.
Milk and honey, bread and butter, peas and rice.
Hey that's nice!
Bloated but happy, eating and scratching,
Losing your hunger and a button or two.
Gastro's fat but honest, sad but true,
Boo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
Consumption JCT, what's your function?
Hooking up two meals to one
When you order something like this choice:
"Either pork belly or foie gras"
Or no choice:
"Neither salad nor veggie plate"
Hey that's clever!
Eat this or that, grow thin or fat,
Never mind, I wouldn't do that,
I'm fat enough now!

Mediterranean Bakery & Sandwich
This strip mall is so dead it should be on the far moon of Endor.... But I would make the jump to lightspeed to Blumpkin county just to nosh on their tasty grub.
I knew it would be good when I was confronted with two large Autodoners piled high with meat staring me in the face. The selection is limited but who cares, it just means everything will be made better and given the attention it deserves to satisfy this Ewok's taste budz. To tell you the truth, I was kinda getting fed up eating that foliage on Endor. My hopes of cream of sum yung Luke and General Han's chicken was shot down by C3-P0. Damn you protocol droids!
So I settled for... Beef shawarma, Meat Pie, Spinach Pie, Falafel.
Everything was verra tastee and definitely warrant other visits when I visit Wicket and my other Ewok cousins in the far woods of Embry Hills (where ever the fug that is).
Burp!

Just being opened for 10 years solely deserves AJC's 2008 restaurant of the year... But obviously there's something else going on in here because who really trust the AJC anymore? It's the food.
Latin American and Caribbean cuisine that is done right is hard to come by. This mom and pop shop delivers the authenticity from those regions right to your front door without the airfare and vaccinations. I only wish all restos feel like this when you step in... Cozy, warm, inviting and comfortable. The food and service feels like home and from the heart all the time, every time you visit. The menu is ever evolving and it's just a treat to taste what they come up with next.
Pionono - Platanos filled with beef picadillo. Nuff said. Yum-mo.
Salvadoran Cheese Pupusa with curtido - Pupusa is so hot right now. These puppies can hold their own to any found on Buford Highway.
Roasted Chicken breast in Argentinecorn sauce served with boiled parsley potatoes - You know it's good when the server tells the room there's only one left. I don't know what planet the potatoes came from but they were the size of an baby's head. The abnormally large portion of chicken was tender and juicy as well.
Grilled Pork Medallions with tropical fruit relish and chipotle mashed potatoes - 3 perfect sized medallions were flavorful and spot on. The relish was delish, amazing flavors and colors. What is it with mashed potatoes that you just can't stop shoveling spoonfuls of it into your mouth?
Dan and Ticha Krinsky have stayed the course of what they set out to do from the beginning and like the old saying... "If it ain't bwoke, don't fix it". You just don't find gems like this anymore, this is the warm and fuzzy feeling we all crave.
I need to change my strategy by ordering backwards next time because my pouch leaves no room for the Tres Leche cake at the end which is why everyone come here for in the first place.
Muy bien.

Athens Pizza House
Thank you sir! May I have another?!
Just gweat... Another middling Gweek joint being initiated into their dumbed down pledge class of wack pan pizzas and canned sauce pastas. How many locations does one need for this slop? I don't think there's a college around here. I wonder if they send up the left overs from their other locations because it tasted like it was well-traveled.
So, I was craving a Gyro and no way was I gonna goto Mish Mash Medi up the street. Then I remember this joint just opened up recently in the backwoods of Norcross. Mebbe, it will be better this time, it's a new location after all. This outpost doesn't have daily lunch specials like the other locations, everything is a la carte and a total rip.
Gyro - Wrapped in so much foil, I didn't know if they were using this for reception for their TV. I peeled this burrito opened and thought it was a Taco Salad. It was a whole head of lettuce, a couple red dices that looked like tomatoes, slices of smelly onions to go with the man sauce they call tzatziki and a pita from a plastic bag. The gyro meat was kinda dry but ok... Alpo ain't got nothing on them.
Fwies - These nasty little puds were limp, cold and undercooked. JeZeus, you people seriously screwed up Sysco's frozen finest? Even a Mickey Deez monkey can push that button on the automatic fryer.
I refused to consume it all because it was like the Clash of the Titans in my bowels... But I spied a room full of piggies troughing that vittles down like there was no tomorrow.
Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life, son.
Meh.

Joe's On Juniper
The theme of the night can be summed up in one word: Cold.
My beers were cold.
My wiener was old and cold.
My buns were stiff, stale and cold.
My balls were cold.
...The balls of my feet!
Check all your limbs and make sure they're intact before you leave this outhouse on the Hoth planet. You definitely don't want to leave any franks and beans behind here...
And don't sit outside in that friggin tepee unless you're a Wampa.
