That’s right people, another year … another opportunity to skedaddle to Downtown Atlanta for some dining deals. Starting tonight, and running through August 8th, 27 restaurants are serving up prix-fixe menus that give adventurous eaters the opportunity to eat on a budget. For the most part, each meal includes an app, an entrée, and some dessert. You will have to shell out a few more bucks if you want something to drink. In addition, I suggest you tip your server.

Russell Hays has surfaced. Apparently, Hays has taken over as the executive chef at Peasant Bistro in downtown Atlanta. Most recently the sous-chef de cuisine at JOËL, Hays has fluttered about Atlanta for a handful of years now. In addition to a couple of stops at Joel, Hays has worked for both the Buckhead Life Restaurant Group and Concentrics Restaurants.
It will be interesting to see what, if anything, Hays does to the menu. If you haven’t noticed, he has a propensity for job hopping … so we’ll see what happens here. Maybe I’ll shoot over there on Monday for the Peasant’s mussels night so that I can see what’s going down.
