MF Buckhead in Bon Appetit/TAP in Food & Wine

SASHIMI AT MF BUCKHEAD: It will rock your world

Atlanta is heralded once again in Bon Appetit in April — this time MF Buckhead is listed as one of the ten best sushi spots in the country, with the likes of Soto in New York (yes, that Soto, ie, Sotohiro Kosugi, formerly of the ATL, now on Sixth Ave) and Nobu in Los Angeles.
And TAP gets a one-line mention in this month’s Food & Wine’s picks for gastropubs.
For those of you who still think we’re just a meat-and-potato town, I’d have to disagree. The fact that Soto is making it in New York and never had more than a very devoted foodie following here is noted.
So don’t let our dine scene fade: Speaking with chefs/owners this past week, many were optimistic about the economy. Though Bob Amick, Shaun Doty and Riccardo Ullio admit their numbers are much lower than they were at this time last year, all three remain upbeat and positive. Ullio was offering diners a sip of his house-made limoncello at his Inman Park pizza palace, Fritti. “It’s my answer to the recession,” he said. “One sip, and you’ll forget all about it.”
