So, for many, do the roasted red pepper asparagus wraps, the grilled pimento cheeses and the chili cheese veggie dogs, the sight of which induce the production of saliva. Do pineapples make for an awesome quesadilla? The answer, my friends, is yesssss. But the good folks at Green Cuisine were gentle. We confess to a little trepidation in our approach to this veggie-lover’s delight. Not in a cupcake mood? Then try the mini bundt cakes, the Mississippi Mud Brownie or the Ooey Gooey (there’s that term again) Strawberry Bar. The strawberry cupcakes with strawberry cream frosting are highly recommended. (That was a pop culture reference, folks.) Find ‘em around town and at SoMa’s Food Truck Thursdays. And you don’t even have to head down the Atlanta highway to get the best cupcakes in town. The Sugar Shack is a little ol’ place where we can get togetheeeer. Chase it down with a chocolate fudge brownie or a chocolate chip hupcap.

My next encounter with this establishment will involve the Ooey Gooey Pig Sooey (had to throw that in after the Texas reference) - cured ham, double layers of melted American and Swiss, “squished between Marble bread.” Hungry yet? These are just two samplings - the menu is chock full of gourmet sammies, from Reubens to Portobello wraps.
They had me at “Trucker Cheeseburger.” It’s on Texas toast, people. This is the “Southern” Gourmasian, after all. You won’t miss the big yellow truck with the red dragon, but you may miss the beef short ribs, the Balinese chicken or even the shrimp and grits if you don’t show up early.
