We started off the Best of Atlanta polls last year in search of your favorite macaroni and cheese. Community Q in Decatur was the clear winner for the second time in a row, but will they reign supreme for a third year?

Being a Southern city, we know a thing or two about mac 'n cheese. Whether you like it old school or prefer a creative spin, you can easily find this dish around town.

Read more about six of the best bowls of macaroni and cheese in Atlanta.

ExploreCold weather calls for chili. Luckily you can get a heaping helping of it at these restaurants. 

If you'd like to submit a write-in nominee for best mac and cheese, please email your pick to stephanie.toone@ajc.com.
