This Just In …

From Lisa Hansen, co-owner of Cabbagetown Market, featured recently on Food Network’s “Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives”:

It’s the “Eat Local Week Pig Roast” at Cabbagetown Market

Farmer Mike Aiken will smoke and serve one of his Tamworth pigs from 12-6 on Saturday, September 27th.

Cabbagetown Market will make sides from local produce.

Local music and local beer.

Plate & 2 sides: $10 Sandwich (on Breadgarden brioche) with 1 side: $7.50

I had a blast at this event last year — my then-boyfriend-now-husband played as part of the local music and the pork was downright incredible — from head (which was saved for last) to pied.

Cabbagetown Market and Little’s Grill is located at 198 Carroll St., Cabbagetown. 404-221-9186

Atlanta isn’t exactly known for its Chinese restaurants, but we have our few. Today’s review takes a look at a very good Chinese restaurant on Buford Highway, Cafe 101, which specializes in Chinese, Szechuan and Chinese-American dishes.

There are others: Canton House, Tasty China (my vote for #1), Chef Liu (great dumplings), China Delight. Finding Chinese isn’t what’s hard. Finding good Chinese — with authentic dishes — is the challenge.

What’s your favorite Chinese restaurant in Atlanta?
