November 29-December 2: Mix drinks at the W Buckhead’s new gastropub, shop designer clothing at Les Nouvelles Holiday Bazaar, experience an Izakaya pop-up (with sake), learn holiday cookie making from Martha Stewart’s pastry lady, and see why chef Kevin Gillespie has a fire in his belly.
Every image of the huge, collectibles-filled space is worth a thousand words.
November 15-18: A secret supper club in Oakland Cemetery is to die for, pop-up shops on the Westside for both men’s and women’s goods let you tackle holiday gifting early, Megan Huntz presents a thought-provoking fashion and art installment, and Vis-a-Vis collects used hair tools for the less fortunate.
November 8-11: Your cheesy dreams come true with the King of Pops’ new venture, Queso King; Intimacy’s bra whisperers help you find the perfect fit; an edgy new book about female chefs is a cut above the typical foodie read; and OMG Cup and Cakes serves $1 treats (for you and your pup).
November 1-4: Please all political parties with Little Cake Bakery’s election cupcakes, peruse a lovely line from across the Georgia/Alabama border at Billy Reid, dig into your favorite new chicken dish at Bantam + Biddy, and experience India through a photo exhibit and Hindi hoopla.
Ideas you can execute without setting foot in a nightmarishly crowded Halloween superstore.
Is that an iPhone in your pocket or are you just happy to see us? (Keep reading and you will be.)
October 25-28: Save 20 percent at 400-plus retailers (and restaurants), get fancy in a private room at Buckhead’s latest hotspot, cut up at Spotted Trotter’s one-year anniversary party, and celebrate Atlanta Beer Week with cheese (and beer).
