Atlanta’s Best Everything
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Best of lists: pretty gimmicky, woefully incomplete, but so easy to breeze through, so easy to love or loathe.
More than that, I’m actually fascinated by Best of the Big A, the AJC’s spin on best of lists. So far, it has taken nominations for best barbecue and ZIP codes.
Who cares about the winner, the best of? The nomination list is an unburied treasure chest of Atlanta life that I’d never know otherwise. If it’s someone’s favorite, there’s a reason. I love when the comments actually share that reason. Please, people! Elaborate!
I’m kind of excited to see what’s next.
Here are a few other local Best Ofs. If you know of more, share ‘em. Newcomers got to learn somehow, right?
Creative Loafing just ended its Best of Atlanta poll, and results will be released in September.
Atlanta Magazine has a Best Of search that goes back to its 2002 poll.
