It is located on Ponce De Loeon street next to the old Sears building. A couple of places to go to is: Deacon Burton's on Edgewood, down the street from the MLK Center for Nonviolent Social Change. Great fried chicken. Another one is Paschal's on MLK Blvd. This is where all the Atlanta politicians go for lunch. Have fun. Pete Wung
