Today's the day

Posted by Cliff Bostock on Mon, Aug 30, 2010 at 3:49 PM

It's the day that Hugh Acheson's restaurant, Empire State South, opens. It's at 999 Peachtree St. and open for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

The website describes it this way:

The food of Empire State South is an homage to the great foodways of the South and works in a meat 'n' three format. For those unfamiliar: you choose your protein, two sides and a choice of accompanying bread. Think Elberton pork with chanterelle gravy, succotash, okra with crushed pecans and cornbread.

Besha recently cited Acheson and the new restaurant's day-to-day chef, Nick Melvin, in her piece about "Atlanta chefs to watch."
