Welcome to the ATL LOVE Series! I've asked a handful of my favorite Atlanta bloggers to give us an-eats-and-treats tour of their favorite Atlanta area neighborhood over the next few weeks.
Today we tour Atlanta's Westside (which is sometimes called West Midtown). The Westside is one of my favorite neighborhoods and I'm so happy to have one of my favorite Atlanta food bloggers - Erika Council of Southern Soufflé - show off her work-hood. Erika is a working mama, who also just moved houses, and yet still some how manages to churn out amazing recipes every week. Her Gin and Ginger cocktail is one of my new favorites. PS Erika has a quick wit and a fabulous eye for photography - you'll love her blog.
What you love about your hood:
My hood caters to the foodie in me. Some of Atlanta's best restaurants live on
this side of town. From the Optimist to Atlanta's best soul food at K & K.
With Star Provisions, which is like the Anthropologie of the food world,
topping my list of what I love the most. It's a marketplace, a bistro, a bakery
and beyond.

Bocado

Best meeting friends for drinks: JCT Kitchen, Ormsby's, Northside Tavern for some hole in the
wall dive bar greatness.
