4 Year Anniversary: ATL

A couple weekends ago was B & my 4 year anniversary....  Let me say that again: 

4 Y.E.A.R.S!!!

Wow, that's crazy...

Anyways, we headed to the W Hotel in Midtown for a couple days of great food and relaxation.  It was  swanky and in the perfect location in the heart of Midtown.  We walked around Piedmont Park, napped in the super comfy king bed, lounged by the pool sipping chilled cucumber water, ate delicious local food, and enjoyed some much-needed quality time.



Below is a breakdown of our favorite eating experiences from the weekend:

- Tap: A local gastropub with a contemporary interior and great outdoor patio.  
My pick: The Buttermilk Fried Chicken Tacos (crispy chicken | buttermilk peppercorn sauce | corn relish)

- Cucina Asellina: A rustic Italian restaurant with a great outdoor patio and low-lit, warmly decorated interior.  
My pick: The Buffalo Mozzarella Pizza Special (buffalo mozzarella | fried zucchini | pesto | some other kind of cheese that I can't remember :) ), Layer Cake Primitivo wine, Tiramisu

- Highland Bakery: A cute restaurant and bakery with a healthy twist.  
Added perk: Great selection of flavored lattes!

- Einstein's: One of Atlanta's best patio restaurants and brunch spots.  
My pick: The Chopped Cobb (romaine | turkey | bacon | egg | tomato | avocado | cucumber feta | crispy chickpea | buttermilk-herb dressing)

All in all, it was a great anniversary, and we have officially added Midtown to the list of places we one-day wouldn't mind living.  :)
