GWINNETT
Petals Bakery and Café
Owner Eve Henry gave her restaurant the name her children call her mother. It’s a good fit, since the bulk of the recipes comes from her mother and grandmother. Drop by for deli and club sandwiches; soups of potato or broccoli; chicken and tuna salads; or greens in the Greek, Italian or chef’s style. Leave room for the six-inch pies packed with apples, blueberries, cherries, peaches or pumpkin, or take home a sour cream pound cake and a dozen cupcakes. 9 a.m.-6 p.m. Mondays-Saturdays. 3131 Lawrenceville-Suwanee Road, Suwanee. 770-831-9433. $
