If Bourdain Came to ATL
Local food stylist and foodie TamiH recently tweeted the following:
Her follow up thoughts were mostly in-town, upscale spots that have one or two extra bright spots of deliciousness.

It’s hard to pick a place that says “ATLANTA”….
#
If i wanted to do a good food tour…it would be progressive dinner…Cakes & Ale for Corina’s cocktails with some fried okra…
#
..then on to Pura Vida for more small plates…esp. the mushroom celery leaf/hearts of palm salad, the goat mofongo, ceviche
#
…then Aria for a filling app or two like the truffled potato thing and then one of Aria’s awesome desserts
#
A keep it real tour would be: Ann’s or The Vortex for burgers, Northside Tavern for booze, Carver’s for hole in the wall yummy
My suggestion hands down would Mulligans, but it’s closed. *a moment of silence, please*
Where would you take Bourdain, or suggest that he go? Witticisms and predictible snappy one liners aside.
i’d have to take him for some soul food….the beautiful for baked chicken or chop steak, the busy bee for fried chicken, thelma’s for ribs and son’s for the sides.
Fat Matt’s and/or Daddy D’z for some q. I agree with Ann’s and Vortex for burgers, too. I’m all about keeping it real.
