What was your favorite Buckhead restaurant to eat in with your family as a kid growing up? Mine was Lum's on Piedmont (great chili and hot dogs steamed in beer!).

Elaine Hazelrigs Manross yes that is the same Penn Greene, and he and I dated in about 66-68 . He had been in trouble at North Fulton, and so his parents sent him to Barry and we used to drive up there every weekend. Then I think he either graduated or something(can't quite remember) and then he got drafted & went to Vietnam. Things weren't the same when he got back. I believe the Greenes moved back to Virginia. I loved his parents. They were so sweet to me, and his little brother Larry. I thought I had found him a few years back searching on the internet, but I didn't write, just in case he, you know, didn't want to hear from me. His full name is Reuben Pendleton Greene III. That's right, he was the third. BTW, do you and I know each other?

My aunt and uncle owned Johnny's Miss Peachtree (grille) on Peachtree. I bused tables as an elementary school student and consumed more free hamburgers then I would care to admit...
Don L. replied:
@Carol, Gigi's is long gone. It's been at least 4 or 5 different bars or restaurants since then not to mention Harvest Moon Saloon. It is now 'Wolfs', a sort of a gay sports bar but then Buckhead just ain't the same anyway. Lol
