Atlanta Good Food category interest

We all know Atlanta is the place to be if you’re looking for good food! From the most delectable fine dining to grabbing a cheap, quick bite to eat, there’s tons of delicious restaurants to enjoy! And we’re so excited to see that two Atlanta favorites are being recognized nationally by the New York Times!

Which Atlanta restaurants are on the New York Times’ ’50 best restaurants in the U.S.’ list?

Bread andamp; Butterfly and Nàdair are the two Atlanta spots that made the cut! Both of these Atlanta gems are new additions to the list, making their New York Times debut!

Nàdair

Nàdair is a Scottish and Southern spot with a delicious menu that everyone will love!

The NYT says,

Nàdair is the Scottish-Southern mash-up no one knew American dining needed. It’s the latest and most personal restaurant from Kevin Gillespie, the red-bearded chef who became a star in the early seasons of “Top Chef.” With a carpet woven in the colors of his family’s tartan and a pocketful of his Scottish granny’s recipes, you’d think the place would be a stodgy tribute to oats and haggis. It’s anything but. Yes, there is haggis, but it’s a clever vegetarian version in crisp pastry with peated whiskey cream and mushroom velouté. A tender cornmeal crust gives a Scottish cheese and onion pie a Georgia kiss.

Nàdair is located at 1123 Zonolite Rd NE Ste 15, Atlanta, GA 30306. Check ’em out on their website here!

Bread andamp; Butterfly

Bread andamp; Butterfly is a French-Haitian spot in the ATL with a truly delectable menu!

The New York Times Says,

After a series of pop-ups, Demetrius Brown quietly took over a much-loved French cafe and transformed dinner into a showcase for French cuisine as interpreted by Caribbean cooks, particularly from Haiti. Cilantro, thyme and epis, the herbaceous spice blend, perfume a delicate interpretation of the classic beef patty. In the same way, Mr. Brown uses English peas and local mushrooms to enhance djon-djon, a dish named after a type of Haitian mushroom. He marinates halibut for escovitch, and marries single-origin Haitian chocolate with coconut ice cream.

Bread andamp; Butterly is located at 290 Elizabeth St NE Ste F, Atlanta, GA 30307. Check out all the details on their website here!

How’d they choose these delicious spots?

The New York Times says,

Over the last 12 months, reporters and editors traveled to nearly every state scouting restaurants for our annual list. This year, it was about spaces as much as places. We ate hyperlocal dishes served out of a trailer in a rural Virginia field, experienced one of America’s most refined seasonal tasting menus in one of San Francisco’s most refined rooms, dined on Creole fare in a strip mall down the road from NASA in Texas and joined a party behind a tattered ranch house in Johns Island, S.C.
