We may need a thick slice of humble pie after this assertion, but we think some of the country’s most refined and soulful regional cooking can be found right here. Check out The Atlanta 50 on MyAJC.com. It’s our guide to the 50 restaurants that define the flavors of metro Atlanta.

Food truck news

Ford Fry, the man behind JCT, the Optimist and the upcoming King + Duke, has lent his culinary craftsmanship to a good cause on wheels. People’s Food Truck will soon begin offering Fry’s creations all over town. All of the proceeds will benefit City of Refuge, an organization providing food, clothing, shelter, job training and health care to Atlanta’s less fortunate.
