Patio Hop and More

A few weekends ago, a couple of friends and I set out on an adventure. We were going to attempt to visit several different patios in Atlanta in one day. There were two main factors that went into this decision.

1: One member in our party is ecstatic about patios 
– seriously, loves them and I can’t honestly blame her!
2: Quite simply, I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like 
Brunch!

It was quite possibly one of the best days I have had in quite a while!

We started out at Treehouse in Peachtree Hills. We sat outside on the patio with the morning sun peeking through the awnings, sipping on our Bloody Marys and I could just feel that this day would be a wonderful, laughter filled day.

Right on schedule, at 12 noon, we moved over to Virginia-Highlands for The Family Dog. Although we were taking it slow, no coffee in the morning and no breakfast meant food was needed immediately. And I am certainly glad we decided on this place! I had the Corned Beef Hash w/ Fried Egg, which was almost better than Granny’s! Once everyone finished their meal and we came to a stopping point in our conversation, we hit the road again!

Our next and final stop on the itinerary was Leon’s Full Service in Decatur. If we thought the day was hot at our previous location, this time in our day was completely unbearable! We were seated at a very cozy corner booth and the drinks were just as refreshing!

Before we knew it, it was time to get ready for the Birthday Celebration!! My younger sister's birthday was on the 2nd and we were going out to celebrate her! We had a wonderful dinner at Abattoir with just as wonderful, if not stirring conversation and then later drinks and Boccee at Ormsby's.

All in all, I'd say the day was a success! And everyone had an excellent time!! 


Happy Birthday Beautiful Sister!!
