Over on Creative Loafing, it looks like the Blissful Glutton has fallen for the Decatur dining scene, after getting a bit bored with Atlanta. Here’s a blurb…

Sure, I’d hit all of Decatur’s new bars and restaurants when they opened, but I had yet to spend an extended amount of time there to fully embrace its energy. A real night out in Decatur was long overdue, so I dragged some friends and my husband out to explore.

Spurred by a tweet by Blissful Glutton, Michael noticed that Victory Sandwich Bar has a “coming soon” address on its contact page of 340 Church Street.  The rumor has been floating around for at least a couple months, but this is the first “official” confirmation that I have seen regarding the future of the old Karma Boutique/Johnny’s Pizza (aka Rocket 88) space.   The rumor has long been that Victory was taking over the entire building.

Victory’s flagship location is located in Inman Park.

Looks like voting for the 2010 version of Creative Loafing’s Best of Atlanta awards (aka “the Loafies”) is officially open.

Click over and inundate the site with your Decatur-centric picks!

You must enter at least five of the 319 questions to submit your ballot. (Note: you must now register with CL to vote.)

And if you just happen to be looking for the best blog/blogger category, it’s near the very bottom of the first page of the ballot.  You know, in case you’re into that sorta thing.

If you recall, last year DM was thrilled to win the critic’s pick for best local blog, but still got served by The Blissful Glutton in the reader’s pick for best blogger and by the cutting-edge Drive a Faster Car for best blog .  But this year, the gloves are off and I’m coming for you Zyman and @Tessa!

(Do I actually think a hyper-local blogger can garner more support than a super Atlanta food blogger or the virtual epicenter of the Atlanta new media world?  Not really, but I’ll die trying.  And by “die trying” I mean I’ll write a post begging for support and then go about my day.)
