10. Tom, Dick & Hank
Posted by Tom, Dick and Hank on Monday, 21 November 2016
While you won’t see any Braves recreations happening after a long walk down the streets of Atalanta anymore, this Ralph David Abernathy barbecue bar still gives some of Atlanta’s nicest smoked wings and supreme glances at what used to be Turner Field. The modernist, woodsy design somehow blends in with the historic vibe of the region so you will feel like the perfect Atlantan when you gulp the real cocktail, made of Crown Royal Apple, agave, Chambord, lime and cranberry juice, or the Hennessy peach tea. If it’s hot (and it will probably be), get the house special TDH prepared with Hendrick’s gin, cucumbers, lime, and ginger beer.
