Alon's Bakery & Market

(A Day in the City - A Day in the City)

1394 N Highland Ave, Atlanta 30306 • 404-872-6000

Description: VIRGINIA HIGHLAND. Alon's fare is great for one main reason: the sublime, fresh-baked bread. Challah, Country French, rye and croissants are done to perfection. Top these with creative mixtures of fresh vegetables, flavorful cheeses and hearty meats, and you have a sandwich that's nothing short of unforgettable. If you love to browse tray after tray of bakery-fresh desserts – and who doesn't! – then don't skip theirs. From tender scones to some of the most addictive cookies in Atlanta, you'll find it all here. Try a tangy lemon square or a big piece of raspberry white-chocolate cheesecake, and don't forget a fragrant cup of coffee to go with your selection.

Highland Woodworking

(A Day in the City - A Day in the City)

1045 N Highland Avenue NE, Atlanta 30306 • 800-241-6748

Description: VIRGINIA HIGHLAND. Sure it's a hardware store but, boy, is it ever worth checking out. Highland Hardware started out back in 1978 and established its niche by specializing in woodworking tools and supplies. Needless to say, over the years, the operation became more and more specialized – in 2006, it even changed names to Highland Woodworking. Now, in addition to being an internationally known seller of everything from bandsaw blades to router bits, they also feature books, a few pieces of handmade furniture and woodworking classes.

Java Jive

(A Day in the City - A Day in the City)

790 Ponce De Leon Ave, Atlanta 30306 • 404-876-6161

Description: PONCEY-HIGHLAND. An all-American coffeehouse/diner that combines nostalgic appeal with contemporary hipness, Java Jive draws big crowds each weekend thanks to its hearty, creative eats. Try the mouthwatering scrambled eggs with fresh basil and cream cheese, scrumptious gingerbread waffles with lemon curd, or what many locals regard as the best pancakes in town. If you're feeling particularly adventurous, their PB&J French toast is the way to go! Authentic period furnishings from the 1920s-1950s, along with big band and swing music, create a unique environment of yesteryear. Great for all ages!

Northside Tavern

(A Day in the City - A Day in the City)

1058 Howell Mill Rd NW, Atlanta 30318 • 404-874-8745

Description: WESTSIDE. A fun Westside beer joint, this one is a little out of the way, but that doesn't deter the regulars who hang out there. Decidedly casual, anything goes as far as attire. But if you are downtown sightseeing or having a meal, it's an entertaining place to head afterwards. The schedule is full of live shows, which range from great to less-than-great. Pool tables and homestyle grub round out this laid-back nightspot's offerings.

Piedmont Park

(A Day in the City - A Day in the City)

10th and Piedmont, Atlanta 30309 • 404-875-7275

Description: MIDTOWN. This peaceful oasis is popular with busy Atlantans. Enjoy a picnic and an inspiring skyline view, or try out the wealth of leisure opportunities, including swimming, tennis, cycling, in-line skating, soccer, and football. You can even get a history lesson while you enjoy the great outdoors by reading plaques commemorating Civil War battles and other historic events that took place in the area. Piedmont Park hosts numerous concerts and festivals as well. MARTA: Midtown or Arts Center

Quinones at Bacchanalia

(A Day in the City - A Day in the City)

1198 Howell Mill Rd, Atlanta 30318 • 404-365-0410

Description: WESTSIDE. Anne Quatrano and Clifford Harrison add to their legendary dossier with this romantic prix fixe restaurant, located a level below Bacchanalia. The fare, billed as New Southern cuisine, relies heavily on ingredients from Quatrano's Southerland Farm near Savannah. The results, not surprisingly, are artfully presented dishes such as sorghum-glazed veal casserole and Kobe short ribs with hedgehog mushrooms. As to the space, Dominick Coyne's design pays homage to the Old South, incorporating earthy tones of beige and chocolate, chandeliers made of hand-blown Venetian glass, antique mirrors, white linens and deep, plush furniture.

Designer Renzo Piano's crisp, contemporary space certainly leaves a lasting impression, and the views of the main piazza are certain to be conversation topics. The lounge area is a fun, cosmopolitan place to gather with friends over wine and tapas, and the bar staff has created several evocative cocktail choices. In the main dining room, you'll find brasserie-inspired dishes like wild boar ragu and skate wing with butternut squash highlighting the dinner menu.
