Bits & Bites

A new Mediterranean eatery, Tannour Grill, opened early last month on 14th Street near Georgia Tech.  The restaurant features traditional Mediterranean favorites such as shwarma and falafel as well as assorted salads and sides like babaganoush and hummus.  A little bit of a falafel snob, I found the falafel here on par with other local favorites Aviva by Kameel (Peachtree Center) and Al's Cafe Agora (Buckhead & Midtown.)
