Order one up plain, or add decadent toppings like chocolate frosting, cookie dough, chocolate chips, and more for your own cinnamon roll creation."

"With a bowl of butternut squash alone costing you $12, and a simple leek soup costing you another $9, Cape Dutch is certainly not the cheapest option in Atlanta. On the other hand, it is one of the best: for carnivores, there’s an insanely good, 35 day aged, 30 oz tomahawk ribeye for $96, and for seafood lovers there’s a whole Maine lobster served with chilled chive sauce and a truffle vinaigrette salad. If you manage to keep your indulgence to a reasonable level, you should be able to get away for around $90 per person."

"For a city in the southern United States, Atlanta has a surprising number of South African restaurants (four, to be precise), thanks to pro-soccer-player-turned-restaurateur Justin Anthony.

Inspired by the food of his native Cape Town and the surrounding Cape Winelands, the menu is based largely around the braai, a traditional South African grill."

Wash it all down with a glass of wine from the Western Cape."
