This is the eating part of my trip to Atlanta. Read about the sleeping, or hotel review, part of my trip, too.

While I got to try only two restaurants while in Atlanta, I was impressed with the quality of the food I had. One of the eateries was Apres Diem, which is located in a strip mall along with a Trader Joe’s and a Landmark Cinema (which was where the Atlanta Film Festival was held). I had the veggie melt with sauteed red peppers, yellow squash, portobello mushrooms, red onion, provolone cheese, avocado and h honey dijon mustard on a crusty baguette ($8.95). Maybe it was because I was famished having just gotten off an airplane, but this sandwich was pretty darn satisfying.

First thing’s first: Congratulations to my fiance and sometime ShopEatSleep contributor Rory for a successful world premiere of “Toxic Soup” at the Atlanta Film Festival! I spent barely two days in Atlanta’s Midtown area experiencing my first film festival, Rory’s screening, and my first time to the city of Atlanta. And thanks to some great recommendations from an Atlanta resident, I had some good eats, too (more on that later — stay tuned for Part 2).
