Another discovery thanks to rateclubs. I drove by it twice because traffic was so heavy and I could not see where the place actually was. I went here on a rainy Saturday night and parked across the street for $5.00. It was also $5.00 to get in. Talk about underground! It was a steep walk to the dance floor but it was great to actually have space to dance at a club for once. There were older and younger adults and some girls even got on the stand near the DJ and started dancing. I have not listened to techno or dance music since the 90s. The DJ did play two rap songs "Low" by FloRida and "How Low" by Ludacris but they were dance remixes. Arrived at 11:30 and my friend and I were the only ones on the dance floor. By 12:30 it was packed and many people brought their drinks and since the majority of people on the floor were dancing, there were many spilt drinks that night. I made sure to avoid the middle of the dance floor. Great place to go if you want to avoid the hassle of waiting in line and having to pay money for a VIP booth if you want a seat like at other Atlanta area clubs.

Beat the hassle of lines, crowds, dresscodes.... and hit up the Edison during their Happy Hour (5-7pm, Thurs & Fri). On soup kitchen Fridays, you get a tiny cup of tomato soup and a corner of grilled cheese sandwich to nibble on. 35 cent cocktails ain't bad either (but you can only have one and you only get to choose between two drinks). All other cocktails are discounted (not half-off, I think it's either 40 or 45% off?). All-in-all, this place is a lot of fun, and the atmosphere is GREAT. It's definitely worth a happy hour trip, maybe not so much if you're paying full price.

Starr's pan Asian restaurant near the Penn campus is a great mix of Asian cuisines with fresh ingredients. You are struck by the white furnishings as you walk in, and the funky lights offer a scene that I'm sure was cutting edge a few years ago. The place looks a little passe now, but that doesn't affect the food. The sushi is high quality and there are ample selections of dim sum, more "traditional" chinese dishes, and a few other asian dishes such as crab pad thai. The food was great, well prepared, and bursting with flavor. The miso seabass was so soft it melted off my chopsticks. Pod has many innovative takes on more traditional dishes like mushroom dumplings in a marsala like sauce and the aforementioned crab pad thai. I wasn't thrilled with the dessert menu but the wait staff let us try a small portion of the toffee-chocolate bread pudding, which was incredible. The worst part of the restaurant was trying to figure out what to order since the menu is so good. The truth be told though, the worst part of the Pod is the prices which are very high even for the large portions. Service was extremely attentive, there are a large selection of cocktails and wine as well.
