| Quite probably the best burger in Atlanta, hands down. |
Despite my current lifestyle being that of your typical college ragamuffin, every now and then I prefer for my food to give me a good reason to eat it as opposed to simply inhaling anything that is placed in front of me.
| It's not that you're gross, it's just that... okay yeah, it is. |
There are many ways to do this, such as my meal literally just smelling so good that I can't resist eating or having decent atmosphere that I can enjoy while eating. Together, however, these two techniques can make a meal an experience are very enjoyable. When a restaurant goes out of its way to make its interior appealing to customers, the aesthetic value of the eatery provides vast amount of entertainment for people and helps make a meal something more than an act of fuel consumption.
One place that truly emphasizes on this use of atmosphere is Atlanta's own Vortex Bar and Grill (Love this place, my ap psych teacher's husband is a manager here). Rather than just having your typical diner, the outside has a giant skull with spinning eyes and blaring music that draws attention to itself. Surrounding the Vortex are many other odd stores and buildings, so perhaps the effect a giant crazy skull would have on passerby's is mildly weakened since it must compete for attention with a number of other buildings that demand just as much attention as itself.
