Apparently a new dessert recipe just dropped at Barrio ATL in Cascade. I’m not sure who we can call this stop this but it’s insane at this point lol 🤣.

They’ll lemon pepper your ass if you let them lol.

Can anyone recommend indoor places with large windows overlooking nature, like this image? It can be restaurants, cafes, bars, hotel lobbies, libraries, I'm open to anything. I love places like this and would like to find a few nice spots to relax in sometimes.

Spots near Cobb County would be great, but I'm open to anything in metro Atlanta.

Nothing earth shattering. Just some photos I took today.

-Peace-

I’ve recently seen cars throughout midtown with either some kind of mapping or license plate reading technology. I didn’t notice any identifying logos or

Don't get me wrong, the facilities and library programs, for the most part, are really good. I love the hosted community events and classes for kids, seniors, and everyone. I just wish the hours were a little more friendly to working families.

None of the Fulton County libraries have Sunday hours. And on weekdays, outside Monday and Tuesday they close at 6. That leaves just a very limited window of visiting hours for working families.

Gwinnett and Cobb have limited Sunday hours. FulCo should do the same.

Not all branches have to have the same hours. They could spread it out across the system.

Considering taxes are higher in City of Atlanta, I don't understand where all of it goes if not to fund shared use spaces like our library.

Any pastries/dessert shops in Atlanta better than Little Tart? Could be anything, but I have a preference for desserts that aren’t overly sweet

Hey y'all, I was wondering if anybody has recommendations for a great place to have high tea for a birthday celebration.
I know of a few places in and around the city, but it's hard to decide which one to choose. Also hopefully should be under $50 per person, but you can still recommend higher price places.

Joined a running competition with my friends, been having a great time running outside but on the days like today where it's raining heavily I still want to be able to run. If y'all have any recommendations on public Indoor tracks I would appreciate them.

I do have a home gym setup, so the recommendations am looking for aren't gym recs (unless your gym is unique in some way).

Curious, there are a lot of companies here. Who is the best, reasonably priced, and reliable?

Anyone knows where I can get djon djon mushrooms to make Haitian black rice?

The least relaxing thing on the planet to me is having to sit silently for a massage while slow music plays and I’m left alone with my thoughts. 0/10 not interested in trying that again. I got bored.

What I am interested in is a home massage where I can play my favorite TV show, chat a little about what is hurting the most, and focusing on those areas. This might be more physical therapy focused but I thought I’d give this post a shot.

Any recommendations or suggestions on where to start my search? Does this sound like any massage therapists you know?

Looking to pay a max of $2.3k but closer to $2 will be ideal. I want to be near near Midtown, Arts Center, or North Ave stations.

Specifically prefer any place with a high ceiling, like luxury apartments or lofts. It’s just me and my dog.

I’m willing to take any other suggestions outside of midtown as long as it’s near a MARTA station.

I saw it in a dream so please help me make it happen.

What's on your mind, Atlanta?

I’m visiting Atlanta right now, and I absolutely love it! The urban design, the food, the thrumming night spots, the street art, the parks, the universities… this city is visibly thriving!

There are two trends here that I’ve picked up on however, that I find extremely annoying, and far more prominent than other American cities:

• E-bikes and scooters. They are everywhere, people go so fast on them, and they never have helmets. People seemingly ride these scooters up and down the sidewalk, without paying attention, then just leave the scooter in the middle of the sidewalk? As for the e-bikes, there are some of them that might as well be full-powered gas motorcycles, just absolutely ripping down the Beltline. Are folks here just ok with this behavior? Seems selfish and dangerous, but maybe I’m off the mark.
• Playing music from a speaker or cell phone for all to hear. This phenomenon seemingly ties in with the previous one a ton of the time, and I find it so annoying! Some of the speakers folks use here to blare their music are super strong too… and I never enjoy the music! Why does it always seem like folks are blaring the most annoying music possible, and why do they do it? Do they think that other folks want to hear it?

I’ll reiterate that I have observed these trends in other American cities as well, but they are both way, way more prominent here than elsewhere.

was wondering if anyone who lives here have thoughts about it. I’m always trying to understand the intersections of geography, economics, and culture.

I just spent ~2 weeks in Vietnam for vacation. For any who have been you know that there are knock off vendors EVERYWHERE.

Any time I saw baseball, basketvall, or American football jerseys I would quickly sift through. Out of what felt like endless vendors my buddy and I only found ONE piece of Atlanta sports memorabilia.

For what is maybe a top 5 baseball brand, upper half of basketball, and upper half of football this was astounding to me.

Pretty much came here to say that Ah'lanna representation abroad is grossly underwhelming. Talk amongst yourselves below.

Looking for recommended places in the area to get a motorcycle seat shaved down. Thanks!

Honestly, 1h east/south to atlanta I can do. (Buford, duluth)

But im craving a good bun thit nuong. I want char grilled slighty fatty pork and I want the springrolls to have rice paper rolls

You think it was really Kratom? Seems like there are smoke shops every ten feet in atlanta selling this stuff

I knew it was addictive bad but never heard of an over dose

Hoping to have a casual birthday gathering on a Sunday evening for a group with some dietary restrictions. Ideally the weather will be good so we can do something like takeout in a park, but wanting to plan for a backup in case it's cold or rainy (end of October so a little unpredictable). A large brewery (eg. Wild Heaven) would be the perfect kind of indoor space because of the ability to mingle and not be static like at a sit down restaurant. But most of the breweries I can think of have pretty limited options for people who don't eat gluten and/or are vegan, and there are a few people we wanna make sure we can include in our group--ideally, something like Mexican or Indian is good for us (but doesn't have to be those). Obviously bars meet this criteria for mingling too, but food is essential and the large space of a brewery is really nice. In an ideal world, it would be like a big-ish brewery space but with Mexican or better vegan and gluten free options. In my experience Krog or PCM is usually crowded and loud on weekends, but open if something like that has more chill space. Queer friendly also good!

Recommendations for small covered pavilions with picnic tables would also be great--I'm thinking of some I know of in East Lake--but I don't really wanna pay 100+ to reserve it on iParks. Parks next to good takeout-able options especially. I I lived in Atlanta a few years ago and am coming back to visit for the birthday so I don't have to ability to check out places in person beforehand. And there's always new places I haven't been!

Is there a reliable taxi company in Atlanta? I’d like to avoid rideshare apps if I can, but it doesn’t seem like Atlanta has a comparable taxi ecosystem. I’ve seen the Cascade Taxi cabs around; are they good to use, or are there alternatives?
