Atlanta is a foodie dream, especially for lovers of fresh produce. The best markets in Atlanta range from neighborhood farmers’ markets to gourmet food halls featuring some of Atlanta’s best restaurants and everything in between.

Here’s yet another reason to visit Long Island City this season: The Summer Club is a new, reservations-only rooftop day club that just opened above Ravel Hotel.

Aaron Mattison, CFO, and co-founder of Bar Vegan, launched a pop-up French bar at Ponce City Market last week, and it’s about as different from Bar Vegan as it could get. A “boho, feel-good” spot called Excuse My French, was inspired by Mattison’s Parisian travels when he was in business school. “I remember the number of […]
