[suburbia]

I know that many people have talked about great diversity of food being available in the core / Beltline, however, my experience has been that while the centre of the city indeed has a good diversity and density of places, what it doesn't have is the smaller mom and pop places (which are better priced, and often have the best food). Those types of places couldn't get off the ground in the core, because it is of course expensive to have a place there.

Further, when I searched some of the food advisor web-sites, I found that some of my favourite ultra small mom and pop shops out in the burbs were not even listed. It got me thinking that many of the people who put reviews on trip advisor or zoomato (or whatever it is called) are not the types who go to off the beaten path mom and pop shops, and rather are the hip smart phone attached with glue types, and possibly tourists also.

Just putting that out there.
