Tackling the Sunday meal thing led Seven Lamps to come up with its own rendition of gridiron action centered on a Southern staple -- the waffle iron. Comforting cheddar waffles are the result, and they're touching down next to half a chicken, all fried and crispy, and a side that changes weekly (double thumbs up on the creamed corn) for $16. Get a whole bird for $28. Score this meal from 5-10 p.m. every Sunday. And who couldn't use a weeknight lift after a day's grind? Effervescent "champagne" Miller High Life beer-tails are $3 and oysters are $1 each from 5-7 p.m. This Buckhead stopover is easy to find in the Shops Around Lenox.

Shaun Doty and Lance Gummere, the guys behind Bantam + Biddy in Ansley Mall and Chick-a-Biddy in Atlantic Station, are always on the lookout for ways to help out their community. That's why each restaurant is hosting the Atlanta Community Food Bank Supper Club on Tuesday, August 13 from 5-10 p.m. Either way you go, you can't go wrong. You'll enjoy farm-fresh, all-natural chicken dishes and other regional fare, and the ACFB receives 20 percent of each purchase. The fast-casual atmosphere of these family loving eateries is a lifesaver during the stressful back-to-school week. Grown-up and kids' menus get an A+ at both restaurants. Tote along all of those school papers to discuss and sign over dinner and drinks (beer, wine and cocktails for mom and dad and fun beverages for the kids). Too busy for a sit down meal? Call ahead to Bantam + Biddy and pick up a family meal that serves three to five for $42 -- still counts for Supper Club! Tasty dinner, community service and family meeting all rolled into one. Way to multitask, y'all.

Back in the '60s and '70s, German schlager was pretty poppy music, a bit akin to our own country music. You know the type, employing a catchy melody, sentimental lyrics and easy to sing along with (with a few beers under your belt). "Schlager" can also refer to a hit song. Guaranteed the DJ will play everyone's favorite schlager at Atlanta's fifth Schlager Party, co-hosted by Der Biergarten and the German Chamber of Commerce, on Saturday, August 17 from 7 p.m.-midnight. The more beer specials guests relish -- such as $9 liters of Krombacher pilsner and Weihenstephan hefe -- the better the schlager is bound to be. Throw on the lederhosen and dirndls because Der Biergarten is bestowing prizes for best costume, including tickets to their German Beerfest, t-shirts and gift cards. Take us home, schlager roads to Der Biergarten in downtown Atlanta's Luckie Marietta District. Oh ja!

The official Instagram (@thebigketch) of The Big Ketch Saltwater Grill is best viewed just prior to going there. It's not fair to tease your taste buds with the sensory overload of these food photos unless you can fulfill the promise. Seriously.
