    Preserved primates

    There is nothing else like this in Georgia. It's kooky, macabre, fun, and the best way to spend your day. I couldn't recommend this enough. Definitely coming back soon!

    This was what I ended up purchasing!

    il y a 3 minutes NOUVEAU…read moreWe took a student group of 50 students and it was amazing. Getting the tickets was a pain because they don't take checks so it makes it very difficult for schools, but once we got that settled, the exhibit was great. Mr. Ray, the tour director at site, was amazing (as were all his team). He was a pro with our students and our needs. He addressed some other loud patrons for me when they caused some drama...handles three large groups at one time, really went the extra mile for us. I was extremely pleased as my kids really enjoyed it. I have been before and value them adding a Japanese room, and they upped the cafe game as well. We will continue to visit these exhibitions if Fever continues to support great local workers and great content. Well done.

    Although this experience was fun and informative, I feel it was a little less immersive than others…read moreI've experienced like this. I went at about 3pm on a Saturday, and the line to get in wasn't long at all. There was an option to choose Titanic or Van Gogh, regular ticket($40) or VIP($60). It started with a timeline of his life, and some of his most famous paintings. There were 2 different large rooms with the paintings from his Japan trips and flower series projected everywhere around the room. I'd bring a jacket because it was really cold in few places. You can take as long as you want, but it really doesn't take much time to get through the entire thing. Maybe 40 minutes if you're reading everything. We got the VR experience added for $5, and that was cute, but nothing to really write home about. At the gift shop, I got a sunflower tea set ($30) & the large can of blooming tea ($19.99). Those were my favorite part. Then as we exited, we were able to draw a picture and have it animated on a projector for a while.

    Abner's in Good Hands -- Champ's Clocks is a Treasure…read more Some businesses are more than just a service -- they're a tradition. Champ's Clocks is exactly that. I first met Nick in 2021 when my grandfather clock stopped working. When the same clock needed attention again recently, reaching out to Champ's Clocks was an easy call. Nick worked me into the schedule without hesitation, and what followed reminded me why small businesses like this one are so special. Nick's father joined him on the second visit, and the experience became something far more meaningful than a simple repair. He shared the rich history of the business -- how the craft was passed down from his own father, and how they've been serving their community with this rare and deeply respected knowledge for quite some time. Listening to him explain the parts and the mechanics of a clock that has been in my family since 1984 was genuinely fascinating. I also had the privilege of experiencing their annual event, held the day before we spring forward, where the chimes ring out in celebration. It was a wonderful moment that perfectly captured how Champ's Clocks has become a true staple of their local community -- a business that genuinely appreciates the people it serves. During the event, we also had the chance to browse their inventory -- which was incredible -- and found the perfect clock for an upcoming milestone birthday. It was a reminder that Champ's Clocks isn't just a repair shop; it's a destination. Most recently, the pendulum became detached. I sent a photo of the part, and Nick not only had it on hand but came out the very next day. I had a scheduling conflict and couldn't be there -- no problem. They came in, completed the repair, sent a photo of the finished work, left the invoice, and had the clock set to the correct time before they left. That kind of trust and professionalism is rare. What also speaks to their integrity is that they could have easily recommended a full rebuild -- but instead they focused on preserving what I have, replacing only the parts that made sense to do together rather than attempting a repair that wouldn't serve me long term. They have always been mindful of cost and genuinely have my best interest at heart. That kind of honesty is everything when you're entrusting someone with something irreplaceable. Our grandfather clock -- named Abner, after my great-grandfather -- is the heartbeat of our home. Its rhythm, its chime, its presence through life's most meaningful moments makes it irreplaceable. Knowing it's in the hands of Nick and his father gives me tremendous peace of mind. In a world increasingly defined by technology and disposability, Champ's Clocks is a reminder that some things are worth preserving -- and that the people who dedicate their lives to that preservation deserve our deepest appreciation. Thank you, Nick, and thank you to your father and the entire Champion family.

We happened to be there at the top of the hour when all of the chimes went off...GOOSEBUMPS! We took [pictures and have been showing them to everyone who will look at them. If they do not have the clock for you, then you don't need a clock. We left our clock for repair and we were told up front that it may be several months before they could complete the work. We were OK with that. Thanks Andy and Chevy for a great experience.

    For a gift giving emergency, I turned to Yelp which brought me to Spruill Gallery & Gift Shop not…read moretoo far from Perimeter Mall. I had no idea this place existed but I'm so glad I know about it now.  Juxtaposed next to two eateries in modern buildings is a historical old house full of delightful locally crafted goods. Maybe the majority of offerings were ceramics but others included jewelry, ornaments, bath and body works, notebooks, teas, and way more than I could list. Some items were on the expensive side while others were less than I would've expected so I think you should be able to find pieces in your desired price range. Make your selections with care since I saw a sign by the register saying that there are no refunds. I was elated since I found perfect presents at Spruill and could wipe my brow and exclaim "Whew!" And just to wrap up (pun intended) this story, the recipients seemed to really like their presents, hooray. Friendly service. There are spaces reserved for gallery visitors near Fogo de Chão's entrance but you can also just park elsewhere in the parking lot. Walk around to the front door on Ashford Dunwoody Road. Shop local!

    I've driven by this gallery countless times and finally decided to stop in this past Saturday. They…read morewere doing a holiday market selling goods and wares from local artisans. There are four or so rooms and they had multiple tables set up in each room with various items. They didn't have sellers at the tables so you were free to peruse without feeling pressure to buy. They had a nice selection of items - everything from cutting boards, kitchen napkins, jewelry, candles, and mugs to puzzles and artwork. The prices ranged. Nothing was crazy expensive but not necessarily cheap either. I found a couple of things I liked but nothing I really wanted. That along with the complete lack of reception from the people working there and I passed. (Note: A simple hello doesn't take much. You don't need to chat me up.) I'm glad I came to check out the holiday market but I don't feel like I ever need to return. As far as getting here, you can see the Gallery from the street. They're next to Fogo de Chao and across the street from the plaza with Walmart and World Market. They have a few designated spots in a lot behind the gallery and there's more unassigned parking a little farther back.

    The Culture Center of Taipei Economic and Cultural Office (TECO) in Atlanta is a community center…read moreprimarily serving the Taiwanese and Taiwanese-American community of metro Atlanta. The center is a freestanding, multi-use building that regularly and often hosts a variety of events and activities. It's located behind the Atlanta Chinatown mall and has been around since 1989. Old-school Atlantans might know this place as the Chinese Community Center, Chinese Culture Center (https://www.yelp.com/biz/chinese-culture-center-atlanta), or CCC. Chinese Community Center was the old name. The official name of this place is Culture Center of TECO in Atlanta. I've been here for a variety of events over the years including Chinese New Year celebrations, complete with dragon dances, and Taiwanese food festivals. Some of my Chinese-Taiwanese-American friends who grew up in the Atlanta area came here as kids for Chinese language and Chinese ribbon dancing classes. Most recently, I visited the Culture Center for the 2019 Dumpling Cook-Off Presented by the Atlanta Chapter of the Taiwanese American Professionals volunteer organization: https://www.yelp.com/biz/dumpling-cook-off-presented-by-tap-atl-chamblee. It was a lot of fun. I've always enjoyed my visits to this center. As I noted in my review of the CCC in 2014, the building is (still) dated, but functional. It's a humble gathering place that can easily accommodate hundreds. Lighting and sound is good and the large, indoor, gymnasium-like space is versatile. They've hosted everything from seminars and speaking engagements to pickleball clinics. There are two floors, a stage for performances, and even a small library. There's plenty of parking for smaller events, but for larger events like Chinese New Year where not only are there more people, but part of the parking lot is used for the festivities, spots are limited. In some instances, you'll have to park off-site, like in the parking lot of the Interactive College of Technology nearby, and walk or shuttle over. I noticed the center's parking lot has been repaved since my last visit. It's nice and smooth now with hardly any large cracks. TECO's Culture Center isn't to be confused with TECO's main office in Midtown located at 1180 W Peachtree St NW, Ste 820: https://www.yelp.com/biz/taipei-economic-and-cultural-office-in-atlanta-atlanta.
