Great idea! I've got some ideas!

Or, perhaps, I should start a thread on living cheaply but happily! My family all think I'm the biggest penny pincher on the planet...

Eating out lunch everyday is my guilty pleasure... I'm not a big drinker, so lots of $$ leftover to eat out lunch everyday

I added Farm Burger to the list! I consider Shane's to be just 'Fast Food', although I'm sure it could be considered 'Fast Casual'.

I love fast casual. I am so tired waiting on wait staff. More often than not, I could go get the items I need from the bar / counter in half the time a waiter takes...and I don't have to give them 20%. Wait staff in most cases feels like a charity / unnecessary re-distribution of wealth. I can count the number of times a waiter has been worth their 20%+ on one hand in the past year...
Agreed 100%... I guess that is my one knock about Atlanta, but it is an easy fix since I travel a lot

Ok, after taking everyone's recommendations into consideration, I have researched each place and reviewed each of the menus. I have created a Google map of the places I think would appeal to me. I can now use this each time I'm hungry
