The Varsity - an Atlanta classic
Apr 18, 2008 Current Events, Health, Just Plain Awesomeness
The Varsity. Those two words make me so happy. You see, my friend, The Varsity is a restaurant in Atlanta that is sort of an Atlanta staple. It has been here fore several decades, and anyone who lives here has eaten there before.
What kind of food do they have, you ask? Greasy, delicious, artery clogging food. Hamburgers, chili dogs, onion rings, fries, etc. When you walk up to the counter, “Whadaya have!?!?!” is yelled at you. Seriously, that is how they take your order. It is kind of like the Soup Nazi in Seinfeld. You order, then step to the side and remain silent. But you see, it’s all part of the experience.
I just had lunch there, and I was reminded of how much of a defining part of Atlanta this is. Next time you are in the area, stop on by.
Whadaya have!

I saw this on the Food Network the other day and made a mental note of it. If I’m ever in Atlanta for a conference, which seems very likely, I’ll make sure to check it out.
