Appetizing Aperture: American Spirit Works Terminus City Sour at Revival
How do they do that? Brand an “R” monogram to the foamy head of the American Spirit Works/Terminus City Sour at Revival? Leave it to chef Kevin Gillespie to pull this trick out of his toque for guests at his Decatur restaurant. Underneath the “R” pools a potent mix of rye whiskey and apple brandy, both from Atlanta’s own American Spirit Works Distillery, along with smoked spices, blackstrap molasses, lemon and bitters. Are spirits topped by tattoos next?

Mardi Gras Reigns and Henri’s Bakery has Your King Cakes
Crown your Mardi Gras festivities with a king cake from Atlanta’s local slice of NOLA life, Henri’s Bakery & Cafe. Henri’s creates tempting king cakes with cream cheese, cinnamon or almond fillings, dollops of creamy frosting, the sparkle of gem-hued sugar crystals, and tosses on a few strands of Mardi Gras beads and a mask to boot. The wreath-shaped standout comes wrapped on a foil platter for a regal presentation. The legendary bakery offers three sizes to accommodate your krewe or court: small, medium and large. Say, perhaps you have experienced the same calendar epiphany we’ve realized. This year, Ash Wednesday falls on the same day as Valentine’s Day, giving an extra reason to be sweet on sharing a king cake from Henri’s Bakery with all of your loved ones. What fun to see who will find the baby inside his or her slice and get to be “king” for the day (and host next year’s celebration). Order yours, allowing 48-hour notice, from one of Henri’s three locations: Upper Westside, 404-968-9412; Buckhead, 404-237-0202; or Sandy Springs, 404-256-7934. Lest we forget to mention, Henri’s rolls out some praise-worthy po’boys as well.
