A: The Battle of the Burgers
Q: What is the meat slapping, gut busting, massive attack set to take place at John Howell Park in Virginia-Highland on Saturday, October 2nd (from 12-4p)?
To elaborate: some might say we’re in a burger renaissance. I might say we’re in a burger infestation. Regardless of your perspective, it isn’t a stretch to say that Atlanta’s cityscape has become a bastion of meat-eating fornication. Spurned on by the dizzying selections our city has to offer, Embraced Atlanta is putting on a charitable contest of epic proportions … appropriately slugged as The Battle of the Burgers (web).

Another week comes, another “restaurant week” hits. Atlanta’s Midtown Restaurant Week, which drops for the 4th time, starts tonight (August 29) and runs through Sunday, September 6th. This one features a whopping 43 restaurants (if my math is correct). In what has become formulaic normalcy, you show up at one of the participating restaurants, ask for and order off a special prix-fixe menu, and get three courses for $25. Don’t forget: alcohol isn’t included, and neither is tax and gratuity. If you want the full on onslaught of information, check out the Midtown Restaurant Week official website. Otherwise, just keep reading for the list of menus and restaurants!

Farm-to-table and sustainable food are all the buzz the days. While Blue Hill Farm in New York may get the most press (at least as far as Farm-Restaurants go), Serenbe Farms down in Palmetto continues to get some real serious attention. The NYTimes ran a great article on the “utopia” that is Serenbe Farms!
I can’t wait to get down there to check out The Farmhouse, the onsite restaurant! Tony Seichrist (who left to go to Holeman & Finch) got his start at Farmhouse and the restaurant is helmed by Nick Melvin. That may ring a bell for a few readers as Melvin used to work at Murphy’s, Room, & Tap here in the ATL.
The Farmhouse at Serenbe Restaurant Information:
A: 9222 Selborne Lane, Palmetto, GA 30268 // P: 770.463.9997 // The Farmhouse Website // The Farmhouse Menu
