E. Rivers Elementary School in Buckhead will hold a wellness fair tomorrow, beginning in the carpool line where parents and staff can receive free blood screenings and cholesterol checks from Dr. Jack Dawson, a Peidmont Hospital cardiologist.
Another volunteer is chef-owner Linton Hopkins of Restaurant Eugene, Holeman & FInch and H & F Bread Company, who is an E. Rivers parent. Hopkins will be teaching the benefits of eating organically, a creed he adheres to well at his restaurants.
For more info about “Be Well 2008” call David White, E. Rivers principal, at 404-802-7050.
Speaking of Eugene, it’s just one of 50 of the top 50 restaurants I chose for this year’s fall dining guide, which published today in accessAtlanta, along with my picks for the AJC’s 2008 restaurant of the year, Tierra. Read it all here.
Do you agree with the list? What would you add? Take off?

How can you trust a list of Atlanta’s Top 50 Restaurants that does not include Park 75 at Four Seasons Hotel? Chef Robert Gerstenecker is arguably the best chef in Atlanta.
