While we're on this topic can you recommend me some places to eat?

If I'm paying for the hotel, it's usually somewhere below Lennox. I've stayed downtown. If I'm staying with family, I'm probably in Lithia Springs, around Cumberland Mall, or the south Atlanta.

Don't knock the lettuce wraps. You just have to switch them up and switch up the sauces. Now I want spring rolls (to the corner store I go).

In the Lenox area, the choices are overwhelming. There are some great choices just west of there .

Anything that belongs to Buckhead Life Restaurant Group is first rate IMO.

Another great restaurant destination is West Midtown.

Some other great restaurant groups in Atlanta:

Star Provisions
