If you see yourself as a mini-Dominique Wilkins or even a Trae Young, then the city has ample proving grounds to get your game on. Outdoor basketball courts in Atlanta come in all shapes and sizes, in big and small neighborhoods, wooded areas and more.

Pinky Cole, the empress of Atlanta’s vegan food empire known as Slutty Vegan recently got $25 million in Series A funding from Danny Meyer’s Enlightened Hospitality Investments and Richelieu Dennis’ New Voices Fund, AtlantaFi.com has learned.
Meyer is the proprietor of Shake Shack, which partnered with Cole’s Slutty Vegan in 2021 to offer a burger with the vegan restaurant’s signature sauce, has been a big fan of the Slutty Vegan chain since being introduced to it a year earlier.
“I had never seen vegan food presented in such a fun way,” Meyer told Forbes. “Leaders are often defined by the degree to which people want to follow them, and I saw people following the leader.”
Cole, who routinely brings her food truck to U.S. cities to test the market, has been in the expansion mood for more than two years now.
The former TV producer made the leap into the food business in 2018 when she started a food truck that sold “vegan junk food.”
In 2019, she opened her first brick-and-mortar eatery in Atlanta’s historic Westview neighborhood on the city’s southwest side.
Now she’s a multi-millionaire with major expansion plans, including plans to open up 10 restaurant locations this year and another 10 next year.
