If you’re looking for a citrus-y drink to get your engines revved juuuuust enough, then you’ll like what The Pinewood in Decatur is cooking up. The Decatur spot has quickly become known for its drinks, courtesy of its Whiskey Wednesday promotion.
But I “digest”: What we want to talk about this week is The Pinewood’s “Lady James,” a mix of vodka, elderflower, rosemary, lemon, and blanc de blancs.
This drink goes down smooth and is a perfect compliment to the indulges on the food side. Try it with the Anaheim Chicken Sandwich (toasted ciabatta, anaheim pepper, red onion, artisan lettuce, tomato, cheddar, remoulade) or the Ritz Cracker Crusted Chicken Breast (mashed potato, green beans, crystal gravy).

People who love to get out and about on Atlanta’s most famous pathway system will soon have a central hub to rest, gander at the crowds or just to chill at when the Atlanta Beltline Center opens later this month.
The center is set to open April 28 at the Stove Works office complex near Krog Street Market. The center’s Eastside Beltline Trail location promises an influx of people and people-watchers.
Speaking to Curbed Atlanta, ABP spokesman John Becker said the be a gathering place that educates the public on all things Beltline.
“There will be maps and other visuals, but much, much more,” Becker is quoted as saying. “The Center will be a place where people can learn about all aspects of the Atlanta Beltline project—as well as the Atlanta Beltline Partnership’s mission—through exhibits, interactive displays, and programming that highlight the project’s history, scope, and impact.”
Since even before its inception, the Beltline has been likened to a greatest municipal project in the nation and a shining example of community partnership and collaboration. Several areas of metro Atlanta are actively looking to imitate the pathway system, which aims to give people a safe space to jog, walk or enjoy their neighborhoods.

It’s a dog eat dog world out there, but in Atlanta, it’s a Lab’s world, as in Labrador Retriever! The breed once again took Atlanta’s top woof in the American Kennel Club’s (AKC) 2017 ranking of the most popular dog breeds in the country.
The Lab came in No. 1 in Buffalo and Nashville, underscoring just how popular the pups are. Rounding out the top five in Atlanta were bulldogs (of course).
The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel was knocked out of the city’s top five, but joined the Yorkshire Terriers, Boxers and Rottweilers in the top 10.“The Labrador Retriever held strongly to the number one spot in Atlanta,” AKC Executive Secretary Gina DiNardo said in a statement. “But the Bulldog is certainly pawing its way up the ranks, landing only one place behind its cousin, the French Bulldog.”
Atlanta’s Most Popular Breeds 2017

2. Golden Retriever
3. German Shepherd Dog
4. French Bulldog
