Dance Off Holiday Goodies to Live Music Sunday Nights at Johnny’s Hideaway

Holiday cookies and cocktails are a waistline’s nightmare before Christmas. Granted, a Santa belly looks cute when you’re St. Nick. On most of us, meh, not so much. Remedy? Get up and dance to live music Sunday nights starting at 8:30 p.m. at Johnny’s Hideaway in Buckhead. Band X takes the stage on December 20, and Legacy Music keeps the beat December 27. Food and drink specials; $5 cover charge. Dance now. A bevy of bowl game buffets await.

Forget the Toddy, Get a Baby Umami Punch at RA Sushi

Yeah, yeah, it's cold outside. But that doesn't mean you have to limit your beverages to hot and heavy. How about some sunshine in a glass at RA Sushi Bar Restaurant? Try the Baby Umami Punch with Southern Comfort, Amaretto Disaronno, cold sake, liqueurs and tropical juices and dream of warm days and swaying palms. Getaway seekers can snap these up for $6 each instead of the usual $8 through December 31. Weather is a state of mind!
