The Atlanta Journal-Constitution connected with a handful of local moms and their children for a special Mother's Day package.

The moms include Atlanta chef and restaurateur Asha Gomez and her son, Ethan Gomez-Palayam, who is 11.  Gomez  recently closed her Old Fourth Ward restaurant, Spice to Table to focus on a new tea venture.  Gomez' most recent cookbook, "My Two Souths: Blending the Flavors of India into a Southern Kitchen," was named one of the best cookbooks of 2016 by the AJC, Washington Post and The New York Times.
