Grown Folks in the City: A Guide To What's Going On In Atlanta for Adults

What's goin on, Grown Folks family!! First off, Happy New Year y'all!! Sooo, we're not exactly sure what happened but after having grown our community to over 11k members, unfortunately our Grown Folks in the City group has disappeared or has been removed some how! This is extremely disheartening and disappointing but it's cool because I truly feel like there's something bigger and greater in store for us and we're just gonna dust ourselves off and keep it pushing by continuing to provide you all with our knowledge of what's going on in our beautiful city!! Instead of starting all over, I've decided to just keep going with our fan page! As I keep hearing, 2024 is the year for more, so that's the mood that I'm gonna sit in! I want to thank EVERYONE for continuing to support us and STILL rocking with us for all these years of building this community!! So THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for everything and all of you!! 💋🤗❤️

🍑🍅🥕FARMER’S MARKETS IN GEORGIA 🥕🍅🍑 For twenty-five years, Buford Highway Farmers Market has been in the business of providing that…and more! When they opened their doors, they specialized in all types of Asian foods, especially Korean. Since then they have grown and diversified our offerings to include foods from Mexico, Central and South America, the Caribbean, West Africa, Japan, China, Thailand, Vietnam, the Philippines, Eastern Europe and more. You’ll find more ethnic food varieties under one roof than any other single-location grocery store in Atlanta. One visit to their store and you’ll appreciate the exposure to different cultures and the foods that are unique to their countries. With one of the largest fresh produce departments in Atlanta, you’ll find everything from standard fruits and vegetables to many that you’ve never seen before. Seasonal specialties, exotics, unusual varieties, select organics and locally favorites can be found every day. Their seafood department specializes in whole fish, an extensive variety of ocean and fresh water fish (farm-raised and wild caught), shrimp and whenever available, live fish such as main lobsters, gulf blue crabs, rainbow trout and more. Specialties within their meat department include ethnic and variety meat cuts…think of it as a head-to-tail approach! You’ll find ox tails, tripe, Korean-style certified angus beef short ribs and many other cuts you won’t often find in typical grocery stores. They invite you to experience specialty food shopping that is a world unto itself. More than a grocery store, Buford Highway Farmers Market is like a world-wide trip where you can experience local favorites without ever leaving home. There’s something new and different every week, so you’ll want to return time and again to capture it all! Location: Buford Hwy Farmers Market 5600 Buford Hwy. NE Doraville, GA 30340 770-455-0770

The drive-thru does offer a limited menu, so you can't get everything on the menu, but Pat Warner, director of PR and external affairs for Waffle House says that you can get your hash browns, any way you want, "of course!" A limited menu may not include your favorite dish so Warner says that the entire menu is available to go for customers who go inside to order. The drive-thru is also only open from 6AM until 2PM so you will have to go inside in the late afternoon and evening hours. Location: Waffle House 5245 Stone Mountain Fwy Stone Mountain, GA 30087
