Wrecking Bar Brewpub's Life Affirming Sandwich



Congrats to Inman Park's own Bob and Kristine Sandage on the recent grand opening of their new venture, The Wrecking Bar Brewpub.  Their renovation of the Victorian at 292 Moreland Ave. will astonish anyone who previously visited the property to dig through mounds of old fixtures and molding during the site's previous incarnation as a Bobo junkyard.

Craft beer is the focus here, but the center piece of our visit last week was the pastrami sandwich.  This is a masterpiece to rival anything served between two pieces of bread in Atlanta.  Coleslaw drippings, expertly grilled pastrami, and the exquisite crunch of perfectly toasted breaded combine to be sublime. This is not the over-stack Katz's scene.  This is grilled not steamed in a portion that drives you savor every precious bite.

All I can say is thank you!

I am proud of my city having the coolest Twitter name. Well, maybe Hustletown is just a littler cooler!

MMW in NYC

Dig Garland Jeffreys if you like, otherwise, skip forward for some great live Medeski Martin and Wood from last month.  The band is releasing a series of songs this year to commemorate their 20th anniversary.
