- I hit Virginia-Highland most often. Nice little area for you non-Atlantans.

- And the proprietor of Manuel's is one Manuel J. Maloof, the chief executive
- of our county government. He's a fiesty 60 year old. But the places
- are all run by his sons. Virginia-Highland is the domain of his son Tommy.
- I think there are a total of three Manuel's Taverns in the Atlanta area.
- Oh yeah, the Maloofs are all solid Democrats. Southern Democrats, to be
- sure.
-
- Great place - I once "peeved" here about sharing a beer with Jimmy Carter at
- Manuel's. It is easy to forget about the problems of the day in places like
- Manuel's - sometimes I just drink Sprite or coffee.
