DEL.ICIO.USTomato Time
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
It’s the best time of year for fresh produce — especially tomatoes, corn, okra and peaches. The Georgia crop was hit hard this year by an early frost, so support your local farmer by getting out to your local farmer’s market or roadside stand. La Tavola Trattoria is capitalizing on tomato time by offering a special tomato-inspired menu in addition to the regular menu. The 11-day Tomatofest will be held from Wednesday, July 25 until Saturday, August 4 and will feature dishes such as buffalo mozzarella cheese with charred Sungold tomatoes and roasted zucchini; wild nettle and ricotta ravioli with tomato salsa fresca; slow-roasted pork spareribs with honey, Brandywine tomatoes and bay leaf over soft polenta; and orange blossom honey-ricotta cake with pine nuts and tomato conserva. Prices range from $7 to $21 for these special dishes. Add a four-course wine pairing to the meal for an additional $14 per person. La Tavola Trattoria is located at 992 Virginia Avenue. Reservations can be made by calling 404-873-5430 or by visiting www.fifthgroup.com.
