Tucked Away in Rosso Coffee Roasters Ramsay

Burgers and (over-the-top) Milkshakes at REGRUB
REGRUB (RE:GRUB) is a small eatery along the Beltline that is quite famous for their extreme milkshakes with crazy toppings! So, this restaurant’s name is puzzling to me. Their website title is #REGRUB, they refer to themselves as RE:GRUB, the restaurant says RE:GĐŻUB, and their Facebook page says REGRUB. WHICH IS IT?? We came to […]
