Restaurants

• Fat Matt's Rib Shack. The ribs are phenomenal — maybe the best I've ever had, definitely top three. Don't bother with the chicken. Several people recommended this place, and it was good.
• Busy Bee Cafe. According to Elizabeth Moulds, best fried chicken in Atlanta. It was indeed very tasty, but the collards were even better. Loved the vibe of this place.
