On the Punk Foodie Underground Dining Calendar this weekend, you will find a total of 110 (and counting) underground dining events with 66 ITP and 44 OTP. You can also break down pop-ups by region: Decatur Area, Westend Area, West Midtown Area and Various ITP. For OTP, see East & Northeast, Way Northeast, West & Northwest & South.
We are a bit all over the map this weekend both geographically and gastronomically with our recs…and here goes…
NEW AND HAPPENING
- BOK GOES MAJOR LABEL: It seems like just yesterday that we were chowing down on bulgogi quesadillas at Clairmont Café’s pop-up in the gawd awful rain at @prattpullmandistrict. A rebrand and 2 years later, our friends at @biteofkorea are all grown up and have their brick and mortar opening in Tucker on Friday. We got a preview on Tuesday…and it was everything we (and they) had dreamed of for them. Congrats!
- ATLANTA INFUSED RAMEN: If you are looking for a 2nd dinner in Tucker after BOK on Friday, try some lemon pepper wet ramen from @senpainoodlesupply who will be at @highcardbrewing.
- VEGANISH GRAND RE-OPENING: @atlfoodtruckpark, rebranding as Veganish, is re-opening (again) in Jonesboro on Saturday.
- OAKHURST PORCHFEST: 200 porches, 200 bands and lots of home made and pop-up food to be had at @oakhurstporchfest on Saturday They have a nice interactive map to find what you need.
- HANDMADE FILIPINO BAKED GOODS: @kamayan_atl is popping up on Saturday on BuHi and again on Sunday with @hapag.atl who will be serving baked goods like Pork Floss Ensaymadas.
HOT DOGS
- LATE NIGHT DOGS: Got the munchies for hot dogs late at night? From 11PM-2AM on every Friday and Saturday, some mighty fancy dogs are served by @peppershotdogs at @holidaybaratl at the Interlock on Westside and @screamin_weenies_eav at @banshee_eav.
- VEGAN DOGS: @carrotdogatl is serving quite a variety of carrot based dogs (we’ve had them…we approve) at @aftercarbar on Saturday afternoon in Adair Park.
VARIOUS AND SUNDRY
- SLAPPING TACOS: @slappingtacosatl serve up various and sundry Mexican inspired dishes at the Corner Grocery in Capitol View. Yes, they have birria, but they also have Doritos chicken salad and this dish which we think is Cheetos based nachos…but we’re not sure. Best to check their Insta to confirm days/hours.
- LAO PHO: @jacks_poppin_pho is the only Lao pho we have had, but we are here to tell ya that it’s our favorite pho (of any kind). We wrote about the dish backstory ….and you can get it in Grant Park on Sunday at @eventidebrewing.
- A DREAMY INDIAN SET MEAL: on a semi regular basis, @shivamchaat offers up regional Indian set meals in Marietta. This weekend it’s Rajasthani Dal Bati Churma.
A POP-CHEF IN NEED
And finally, we were very saddened to hear that this past week our friend Jorge from @fidelasstreetkitchen had a car accident and is in pretty bad shape. If you would like to help him out, please consider stopping by @eatphocue in Glenwood Park and ordering some Brunswick Stew Tacos as part of a fund raiser for Jorge. And stay tuned to the various Punk Foodie channels this weekend for more info on how to help out.
