Photos: Timothy Leland, except where noted Visiting tiny Nevis - just 36 square miles - is treat enough, with its ravishing nature, pristine beaches, friendly, laid back locals and charming inns (including several in centuries-old former sugar plantations). But it´s also packed with 40 or so of some of the finest restaurants anywhere, with food from local farm-to-table and sea-to-table found on culturally diversified menus on a par to what you might find in some of the world´s culinary…

I'm heading to Atlanta in a couple of weeks and am staying near and going to a convention near the Georgia world Congress Center.
Which restaurants do you recommend nearby?

  Hello there, Sandi. Atlanta can be a great dining town but it would help to know a bit about your tastes and budget. Just off the top of my head, there are a couple of restos which nicely update Southern food, both a 10 minute drive away: Sweet Georgia´s Juke Joint on the "soul food" side of things (try the chicken and waffles, and follow it up with the peach cobbler!) along with regular live music, and White Oak (love their take on shrimp and grits and fried green tomatoes, plus a great selection of bourbon and whiskey). Others include New South Kitchen and Restaurant 10 (especially for BBQ). And if you like Mexican, try the upscale modern take on it at Alma Cocina.

When I was a student at Georgetown University and on all my subsequent visits to Washington DC I loved trying all the different ethnic restaurants in a city full of embassies and immigrants. And this piece about the recent DC food festival New Kitchens on the Block included several interesting-sounding newbies - perhaps the most intriguing being "Thai-Italian fusion" lol: https://www.axios.com/local/washington-dc/2023/05/22/new-kitchens-o...
