It’s perhaps testament to Frampton’s stage prowess that his most successful album in Humble Pie and his biggest solo effort are both live recordings.īut he is not the standout star of Rockin’. Those regrets didn’t last long however, with his subsequent solo success and the release of quintessentially 70s talk box monster Frampton Comes Alive! in 1976. Tensions came to a head shortly after and Frampton left to pursue a solo career, forced to watch regretfully as Rockin’ climbed the charts and brought the band their first taste of international success. In fact, during the stint at the Filmore East, prankster Marriott took the liberty of urinating in Frampton’s hotel closet, leaving him to “put up with the stench for several days,” he told Rolling Stone in 1977. Singer and guitarist Steve Marriott’s controlling nature and hyperactivity had become too much for him – same as it had for many of Marriott’s collaborators before and after. Peter Frampton sliced out of Humble Pie shortly before the original release of 1971’s Performance: Rockin’ the Filmore. Reservations highly encouraged.Humble Pie Performance: Rockin’ the Fillmore (1971) Parisian-style market and daytime cafe Petite FSE opens inside the restaurant soon. Look for drinks like the Ghosted made with bourbon, lemon and a float of cabernet sauvignon (a spin on a whiskey sour using a technique to create clarified milk punches.) The London dry gin-based Little R&R is a play on the Clover Club, featuring raspberry syrup mixed with rosemary, dry vermouth, and lemon loomy (dried limes). Expect to find a few of the restaurant’s most popular dishes, including the crispy Spanish octopus, pate, PEI mussels, and chicken bolognese, along with new dishes like salt and sugar cured scallop crudo served with warm brown butter vinaigrette, turnip and ricotta tortelli filled with duck confit and pickled mushrooms, and a confit lamb neck for two. Now open in the North Fulton city’s burgeoning downtown dining district, Foundation Social Eatery offers a sense of familiarity for regulars to the Roswell restaurant, but with a fresh take on both the food and decor. And it appears he’s done just that in Alpharetta. But he promised to bring the restaurant back bigger and better than ever. When chef Mel Toledo announced the closure of his beloved Roswell restaurant in 2020, regulars mourned the loss of the good food, cocktails, and vibe they always experienced there. Low lit and at just 40 seats, Whoopsie’s is intimate and unfussy, and built for an evening of convivial conversation while indulging in amaretto sours and top-notch food you can’t seem to stop eating. The daily dessert might feature mint ice cream with crushed Oreo’s, fashioned after the classic grasshopper cocktail, or the Tarzan’s Delight, based on Rouse’s grandmother’s take on a chocolate mousse ice box pie. Daily dinner specials at Whoopsie’s include porchetta on Thursdays, poached sea bass on Sundays, and perfectly cooked prime rib on Saturday nights. This includes a delectable roast beef sandwich with horsey sauce and a refreshing satsuma salad dressed with champagne vinaigrette. Make sure to start off with a snack tray of deviled eggs, house-made chow chow and pimento cheese, and toasted sourdough points. And for folks who’ve eaten at Rouse’s Avondale Estates restaurant Rising Son, it should come as no surprise that the food served at Whoopsie’s punches far above its weight for a cocktail bar. This unpretentious cocktail lounge from barman Tim Faulkner (Octopus Bar) and chef Hudson Rouse is worth the trip to Reynoldstown alone for its tight list of exceptional cocktails and fun and funky wines. A zero food waste policy means unused ingredients are incorporated back into sauces and salsas for dishes at La Semilla or made into tinctures or syrups for riffs on classic cocktails. And don’t skip the chochoyotes (masa dumplings filled with corn puree) served atop a thin layer of coconut-corn broth topped with a poblano-corn sofrito and matcha oil and fried tortillas for scooping. Start off with sikil pak (spicy pumpkin seed and tomato dip) served with fresh tortilla chips. Forged from a pop-up launched just before the pandemic, La Semilla is a flavor-packed triumph of vegan dishes, like meatless versions of vegan chicken tamals steamed in banana leaves served with a punchy ancho sauce, croquetas de jamon stuffed with seitan ham Tranpani makes himself, and bistec de palomilla made with Lion’s Mane mushrooms. And for owners Sophia Marchese and Reid Trapani, La Semilla (or the seed) is just the beginning of a new chapter in their restaurant careers. La Semilla flexes the flavors of Cuban and Mexican dishes on a menu rooted in veganism and family recipes.
