I was invited out to review Sweet Auburn Bistro. I remember getting lost downtown and passed by this restaurant and I was thinking wow I would love to go in there one day. Well my marketing friend Tara Holland(Word of Mouth Atl) asked me if I had ever been there. I was telling her that I had just got lost in that area and would love to visit that place! I thought it was funny  she brought it up lol. We set up a meeting and I finally got a chance to visit it!

I love where it’s snuggled in the historic part of Atlanta. Right down the road is the Martin Luther King center and alot of other historical places. I love the name of the bistro too, Sweet Auburn. You get the sense that your in Harlem back in the 50′s. I also liked the cool art work on the walls by Corey Whitehead, and the jazz music that was playing.

I invited my other foodie friend Ms.Jayda Boo to tag along because she loves all things yummy like muah. I was very confused in what to order because the waitresses kept bringing out all this food that looked so scrumptious! We started out with some Sweet Auburn Chips that taste soo good! I finally focused and ordered the Barbecue Salmon Sandwich.

Tara’s fried chicken yum!

Jayda ordered the Blackened Salmon with greens that was topped off with a hot water cornbread and Tara got the Vine City Fried Chicken with spinach and mac n cheese. We all sampled each others food and I must say I fell in love with the bow tie mac n cheese! I have never eaten bow tie pasta but it was really, really good! My salmon sandwich was tasty and we were all pleased. The girls and I also shared a South Georgia Strawberry Shortcake that was simply divine! The prices aren’t bad either.

I talked to General Manager Aaron Buggs that said that he loved working at the restaurant. He said that,” there is all walks of life that come through Sweet Auburn Bistro and it’s a very diverse crowd”. They will be celebrating there one year anniversary on March 25th. Congrats to them!

My daughter and I were too tickled pink to go to Cami Cakes grand opening located in Buckhead! As we arrived the pink carpet was rolled out,jazz band playing and plenty of people wearing my fav color pink! There was champagne,oodles of goodies and cupcakes! Cami Cakes is owned by Andra Hall and she has three locations, 1 in Atlanta, and 2 in Florida. The momprenuer, told me that she didnt want to go back to corporate america and plus she had a daughter she wanted to spend more time with. Awh, I love to hear when people put their family first! I did the same thing! Kudos to her! The bakery is named after her daughter Camille, who was too cute with her pink dress on!
