The Playbook
Get Big Easy: The Beignet Connection
349 Decatur St SE, Bldg 1; Old 4th Ward; 404.525.5295
Grand opening Friday, Connection's a Creole cafe plating N'awlins eats like better-than-French-bread pan perdu w/ warm pecan praline syrup for b-fast, lunch muffulettas (Italian loaf w/ marinated olives, capicola, salami, mortadella, Emmentaler, and provolone), six types of po' boys (tilapia, sausage), and dinners like crawfish etouffee. There're also espressos and cafe au laits to drink, and the house specialty for dessert: sweet/salty, square-cut, hole-less doughnuts, which obviously have no Love for Courtney.
You can even BYOB with no corkage fee until the paperwork clears. See the menu and learn the difference between Cajun and Creole cuisine at TheBeignetConnection.com.

King Pong: The World Series of Beer Pong ATL Tournament
Sun, 4p at Famous Pub: 2947 N Druid Hills Rd NE; Toco Hills
$40 gets your two-man team into this satellite tourney for a chance at a free four-night stay at The Flamingo in Vegas (where you'll play to win $50k at the world championship in Jan), plus all sorts of swag from ATL's own Boozin Gear. Per official rules, you'll be on 8ft tables, and game cups'll be filled with water, though pitchers'll be provided during play, so the Braves should probably enter this thing.
You'll save $5 on registration if you sign up before Saturday; why not do it right here, right now at BoozinGear.com?
