Let the voting begin!
Thanks to Southern Living Magazine who selected Decatur as one of the Top 10 “Tastiest Towns in the South.” They are letting readers choose the winning town and are urging residents and businesses to rally around their hometowns and vote for their favorite from now through Jan. 31 at southernliving.com/tasty.
The Decatur community is known for being vocal and expressing their opinions and this gives us a chance to show our support of our outstanding restaurants! Decatur will be profiled along with the other nine cities in the April issue of Southern Living where they will announce the winner.
We are up against the likes of Charleston and New Orleans, along with Baltimore, Birmingham, Charlottesville, Houston, Lafayette, Louisville, and Raleigh. We are the only city in Georgia chosen for this honor and we are thrilled.
They cited Decatur as “an emerging mecca for foodies who relish DeKalb Farmers Market and destinations like Cakes & Ale, Feast, and the Iberian Pig.” They also mention Farmburger, No. 246, and Brick Store Pub calling Decatur “proud but not pretentious.”
I just voted for the first time – it was simple and so far, New Orleans is ahead with 60 votes with Charleston one vote behind at 59. Right now Decatur has 12 votes and is ranked #7. But this is just the first day. Let’s go Decatur!
Let your voice be heard. You can vote once or once a day until Jan. 31. Our potential new six word story has quite a ring to it – Decatur – Tastiest Town in the South.
