Chop suey, phooey! Sushi, samosas, pho and fusion are more like it in Atlanta’s huge rice bowl of Asian dining options. Teaming up Atlanta’s Asian culinary prowess with the Olympic Games in Beijing, the Georgia Restaurant Association (GRA) invites diners to pick up their chopsticks for a “Taste of Asia” during its inaugural Dine-Out Week, August 10-16. Aqua Blue -- scoring some of the best sushi in town -- is on the team of participating restaurants with a special $28 three-course dinner menu (tax and gratuity not included). Begin with crispy ginger salad, move on to miso-glazed shiro magura – white tuna, baby bok choy, fresh spinach and a lush shitake mushroom broth. Finish with a warm brownie à la mode (okay, so brownies are not Asian, but we’re not complaining).Participating restaurants will offer a three-course meal for $28 or other Asian dining specials. A portion of the proceeds from GRA’s Taste of Asia will go toward a merit-based internship for a culinary student who wants specialty training in Asian cuisine.
Aqua Blue: 1564 Holcomb Bridge Road in Roswell; 770-643-8886.
