ATL | Insanely Good Southern Soul Food! ππ
Just stumbled upon this amazing Southern soul food spot after a conference, and wow β itβs a must-try in Atlanta! Compared to basic "white people food," soul food totally speaks to the Chinese palate. Everything we ordered β from drinks to mains β was a hit. Huge portions, incredible flavors, and prices are about 2/3 of what youβd pay in Chicago! π π South City Kitchen Midtown πΉ Peach Margarita Georgia = the Peach State π, so you gotta try their peach margarita! Made with freshly squeezed peach juice β sweet but not artificial, perfectly balanced with the alcohol. Appetizers: π Fried Green Tomatoes Donβt let the simple name fool you β these are tangy, juicy, and crispy with seasoned batter. An amazing start! π½ Smoked Pork Belly Southern smoking skills are next level! Crispy outside, tender inside β approved by Chinese taste buds π π Fried Chicken Livers If you love offal, youβll adore this. Served over smooth pumpkin purΓ©e β rich, creamy, and unforgettable. Mains: π Market Fish Looks simple but tastes incredible! Crispy skin, thick and tender fish β we had redfish (varies daily, ~$40). So fresh and satisfying! π Fried Chicken You canβt visit the South without trying fried chicken! Juicy, flavorful, and served with a side that tasted just like Chinese pickled mustard greens β so cool how food traditions overlap across cultures π π° 3 people, ~$50 each (with tip) β for this quality in Chicago, youβd pay $80-90. Absolutely worth it β no regrets! #SoulFood #AtlantaEats #SouthernFood #FoodieFind #ConferenceEats #BudgetFriendly #ChineseApproved π₯β¨
