Atlanta every day is an opening day

International Dining
Atlanta's ethnic dining scene has flourished as the city's reputation as an international destination has catapulted throughout the world. While the ethnic offerings are many in this international metropolis, it's the explosion of upscale fare that has taken Atlanta's global cuisine out of this world.

Buford Highway  
Other cities have different neighborhoods where the same ethnicities live, but Atlanta has one long road – Buford Highway – connecting one long neighborhood of different nationalities living side-by side and working side-by-side in family-owned restaurants. You'll find Korean barbeque, Vietnamese bakeries, pho shops, dim sum, arepas from Venezuela, Salvadorian pupusas, Mexican breakfast, ceviche, several mixed food courts, taquerias,  farmer's markets and much more. It's one of the few places, if not the only, where you can barbeque your own food at the table, crack raw eggs into a bubbling bowl of brothy tofu, eat out of a pot, wrap it, roll it, eat it raw, charred, sautéed, sip it, slurp it, then top it off with a cappuccino and pastries from a local Asian bakery.
