Carl sends in a barrage of emails giving us some great links to half-price dining at Decatur restaurants.

Over on Southern Voice, buy $30 Feast gift cards for $15 or $50 cards for $25.  Limit of 4 per purchase.  Oh and it excludes alcohol.

And over at HalfOffDepot.com, get $50 gift cards for James Joyce, and $25 gift cards for Mexico City Gourmet, Natalie’s Fish House and Calavino’s!  Of these, only Mexico City Gourmet excludes alcohol.

All thanks go to Carl!  I’m just the messenger.

From Andrea Berry at Decatur eLife…

Decatur eLIFE Magazine is producing a Souvenir DVD and Book to commemorate the opening of the new Sports Stadium at Decatur High School on September 19, 2008.

We’re looking for former DHS students who would like to add comments or be interviewed for this project. If you have photos or a statement that you would like to be included, please send them asap to

A preview of the DVD will be shown at the “Lights On” Ceremony on September 19th at DHS. The complete DVD and book will be available shortly after the September 19th ceremony.

As promised, The Grange Public House will open to the public this coming Saturday, September 6th!

While you await the opening, check out this Atlanta Magazine article with Darren’s wife, Amanda, discussing additional food and drink plans for The Grange.

I should have another firsthand account later this week!  Can’t wait!
