Friends are visiting from Austin. They’ve asked what food is famous in Atlanta. They did ribs in Memphis and hot chicken in Nashville. I’ve got nothing. Not taking them to the varsity. Thoughts?

If you want to take them to the soul food restaurants like the busy bee, paschals, or Mary Macs then that’s it.

You could take them to The Local for wings. Atlanta is pretty well known for chicken wings

If they want to check out ATL bbq, Fat Matt’s in midtown is the best. South City Kitchen is delish southern food and a little more upscale. Flying Biscuit is an Atlanta staple but not my fave. If you want a down home breakfast, you can’t beat Silver Skillet on 14th St. Their biscuits and gravy are like grandma made and they haven’t changed the decor since they first opened.

Yes! ‘Just Brunch’ in Duluth (sorry it’s not in ATL) is so so good! Everything on the menu is fantastic

Chicken wings from Magic City…?? Atlanta doesn’t really have a landmark food option.

Magic city wings! Get the magic sauce

ATL is home of the hot wings and fried fish. You could also just do southern food.

Rough day in the office and in the mood for something that would toss me around and maybe hurt a little. Black peppercorn crusted bacon left on a smoker too long and covered in jam made from under-ripe red fruits. The 59% ABV is definitely present, and you can smell the peat smoke from across the room. The finish lasts for days. If you’re already into peated scotch but want to crank it up another level, the cask strength Laphroaigs can show you your limits. Hurts soooo good 😌
