Celebrate the
Holidays and New Year’s with a fork!
Part II
One of the best
ways to start off the New Year is to indulge in some of best cuisine your city
has to offer. I did Part I here, and now it’s time for the mouthwatering
sequel! If you are lucky enough to eat and drink in Atlanta during the Holidays,
here are a number of fine restaurants that sent me some all the awesome things
they are doing to usher in 2013. Oh, and when it comes to awesome beer lists, I
am particularly diggin’ those spots like Cook Hall, Meehan’s, Family
Dog and Rosebud; the latter happens to be hosting a James Brown
Tribute Dinner! Crazy, right? Love it!
Bon Appetit!
