Atlanta
I am still in Atlanta, until further notice, and I am getting quite acclimated to the local scene. Of the excellent things that Atlanta has to offer a new resident, I have compiled a list
Atlanta's Top Ten
1)Sevenanda: a local co-op market which sells only vegetarian foods and organic produce.
2) Little Five Points: A commercial district of town that is characterized by its youthful and trendy inhabitants. Largely considered a haven for queer & eccentric folk, Little Five has no shortage of vegetarian cuisine, music venues, and off the wall boutiques.
3) Soul Vegetarian Restaurant: The best food known today. Not unlike the Soul Veg cart in Tallahassee, Atlanta is home to two Soul Vegetarian Restaurants, run by followers of the Kingdom of Y'ah.
4) Metro Atlanta Taskforce for the Homeless: An emergency shelter and resource center on a property spanning an entire square block on Peachtree & Pine. This hallmark of homeless service providers is noted for its revolutionary human treatment of its homeless clients. A dying breed of shelters, the TF houses over 700 people a night and does not use HMIS (Homeless Management Information Systems.
5) Mary's: A bar/hang out spot for the local queer hipster crowd. Good music, warm atmosphere, ad free karaoke.
6) BAP: A majestic Hindu Temple constructed using only the finest imported materials, a truly amazing feat of immaculate beauty. This epic monument is located in the suburban outskirts of the city, truly in the middle of nowhere.
7) Georgia Aquarium: Home of the largest aquarium in the world. This aquarium is dazzling if rather expensive. $30 a ticket.
8) Global Mall: Home to a thriving Desi community, the Global Mall is a shopping area which caters to a substantial population of Indian inhabitants. This is the place to go for Bollywood, Music, vegetarian cuisine, and Indian imports.
9) Racial Diversity - The city of Atlanta has not had a white mayor since the 1970's, this city is proudly inhabited by a diverse multi-ethnic population.
