A visit to Atlanta would be remiss without a stop at The Varsity. Operating since 1928, the hot dog and burger joint was and remains a carhop diner and lines can move out the door. Don’t worry, the staff shouts out orders and food comes out in record speed. That is if you can figure out how to order! First, answer quickly when someone yells, “What’ll Ya Have? What’ll Ya Have? What’ll Ya Have?” Then be prepared. A hot dog, for example, is a hot dog with chili and mustard, a naked dog is plain, a red dog has ketchup, and a yellow dog has mustard. Order a Varsity Orange, too, their famous orange drink.
