YOUR PICKS

You say, “We still miss Chef Eddie’s original southwestern/mex place before Taqueria, but the greens are just as fine.”

OUR PICKS
1. Greenwood’s on Green Street
The AJC dining team’s specialist in Southern and Neighborhood Fare Jenny Turknett says, “With vinegar or without? Cooked with ham hocks or not? These decisions define your mess of Southern greens. I grew up eating greens stewed with ham hocks and still have a fondness for them. Yet, as an adult, I have grown to appreciate those made with vinegar like the al dente collards with a healthy dose of apple cider vinegar and garlic at Greenwood’s.”

Tried some at Community Q and they were pretty decent.

Just curious if anyone serves Poke Salad around Atlanta?
