So we were hungry and decided to go eat........
The Varsity.
For anyone in the know, you only have to mention the words "the Varsity" and "what'll ya have" will pop out of their mouths. Crazy thing. The menu is very simple, but with the cashiers shouting this out nonstop, it is a little intimidating. I remember the first time I went to the Varsity. I had just moved to Atlanta and was out with the young adult group after playing "Marta tag" (another story) when they decided to go get a bite. The counter was above my head and the guy was slapping the stainless steel counter with his hand shouting "what'll ya have?" over and over ... I was so intimidated, I just stepped back and said I wasn't hungry. That was 22 years ago.
This time I was bound and determined to do it and without hesitation.... of course, I had Katie with me, which makes me a little more brave. So, up to the counter I went, and ordered myself a hamburger and fries! Yay!
The menu is pretty easy to read. It is HUGE ! I don't remember having pictures to look at the last time I went there, but I guess that is the way they roll in the A-T-L....
This is a pic of Katie with her meal... the hamburgers are tiny! I didn't realize that went we ordered... Katie said she could easily eat two more... (I wonder if the owners are related to the Jimmies Hotdogs in Albany????)
No matter.... we enjoyed them just the same.
Katie is great to have around in intimidating places... I think I need to learn a thing or two from her. Here she is ordering a second helping... I didn't dare...I still have to worry about my Crohn's disease and the bad things that can happen after a meal like that! LOL Then my body says: "What'd you have??? ! "

LOL Crohn's????? None of us should eat that crap eh??? lolol Hey, I'm glad that you took Katie there. I'm so jealous. My first experience at "The Varsity" was like that too. It was right after a young adult activity too. Heck you were probly with me. I have to say though for me I think it was the fact that I was from little Idaho and I think I was perplexed by an all black staff slamming hands and yelling at me!! LOL I miss Hotlanta. Those were the times of my life..FUN TIMES ;O)
