One could say it’s always a feeding frenzy at Atlanta Eats’ HQ, but to us, it’s just another hard day at work. We’re showcasing the best things we ate last week to give you some food inspiration for the week ahead. Check out AtlantaEatsTV on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter for a constant stream of food porn if this post doesn’t quite cure your fix.

Chocolate Panna Cotta from Foundation Social Eatery (Roswell)

Need to get your chocolate fix? We highly recommend Foundation Social Eatery’s decadent Chocolate Panna Cotta! With peanut butter and coffee meringue on a plate literally painted with chocolate sauce, this dessert is sure to satisfy any sweet tooth. In addition, you can choose from an assortment of other luxurious & original desserts, like their acorn squash cheesecake or their minty vanilla pot de creme. We definitely recommend always saving (or just making) room for dessert, especially at Foundation Social Eatery!

Fish Tacos from PURE Taqueria (Alpharetta, Brookhaven, Duluth, Inman Park, Roswell & Woodstock)

Being dubbed as PURE’s #1 dish for 10 years and counting is no easy accomplishment, and these fish tacos are well deserving of their title. Flaky, seasoned fish topped with a crunchy slaw on authentic corn tortillas make for a simple yet bold flavor that Atlanta has been craving & enjoying for the past decade. Pair with a shareable guacamole and their refreshing margaritas for the perfect summer lunch or dinner.

Lobster Roll from C&S Chowder House

Who says Atlanta isn’t a beachy paradise? Ok, maybe we aren’t exactly living in one, but with C&S Chowder House’s Lobster Roll, you can eat like we are! This traditional, northern beach treasure comes just the way you like it…literally. Prefer Maine-style? Get yours chilled with mayo and celery. More into Connecticut-style roll? Order yours warm with rich, melted butter. With a hand-chosen bar selection featuring wines, craft beers & cocktails selected with food in mind, you’re in for the real deal at C&S!

Did we make you hungry? You’re in luck — Atlanta Eats provides the perfect workday distraction! Peruse our site for videos of Atlanta’s top restaurants, and of course tune in to our show on Peachtree TV every Saturday at 7:00 p.m. and Sunday at 10:30 a.m.!
