AccessAtlanta is your weekly podcast about things to do in and around Atlanta and beyond. This week, we’ll hear from our dining team about their favorite Atlanta dishes.

The food choices in Atlanta never have been more varied — or more accessible. Traditional brick-and-mortar restaurants now share the dining landscape with food hall stalls, food trucks, farmers market vendors, pop-up innovators and delivery-only entrepreneurs. The team’s Fall Dining Guide sings the praises of current favorite metro Atlanta dishes. You’ll find picks for breakfast, lunch, happy hour, dinner — anytime the craving strikes. On this week’s podcast, dining editor Ligaya Figueras and contributor Wendell Brock will talk about the dishes they’re craving.
