My dad and I loved the food tour! Our guides, Joy and Kristen, were wonderful! They were super personable, knowledgeable, and passionate about sharing their love for Atlanta. All of the food was amazing (I loved the pork belly toast and my dad favored the catfish), and we really appreciated how everything tied back to the history of Atlanta. We learned a lot and ate a lot!
