Those waves shimmering on the horizon would be
oh, so chillin’ if they weren’t heat waves rising above the asphalt. Ride that
thought to Bantam
+ Biddy Avalon where $2 Harpoon Summer beer does its part to keep summer
sanity afloat. Cooling thoughts prevail: the $2 price tag stands all summer for
this German Kölsch-style ale brewed at Harpoon’s Boston and Vermont breweries,
destinations 10 or 20 degrees cooler than Georgia about now. All the more
reason to come in this summer for a Harpoon Summer beer and something light
like a pimento cheese snack, Jb Farm deviled eggs or a substantial rotisserie
chicken dinner. Bantam + Biddy Avalon in Alpharetta is open daily for
breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Go outside and play at the Bantam + Biddy Spring Festival at Ansley Mall on Saturday, May 9. On this Mother’s Day weekend, the casual eatery featuring regional, all-natural and pastured poultry fills the 11 a.m.-2 p.m. midday slot with family friendly festivities, live music, local vendors, a lemonade stand and a Mom’s Day card crafting table for children (adults, you should have your cards in the mail by now). Buy some steamy Bantam + Biddy chicken tamales and King of Pops popsicles if hunger pangs strike. Additionally, Jb Farm Fresh Eggs will be selling its grain-free, free-range chicken eggs and will bring baby goats for youngsters to pet. Grownups, check out The Cook’s Warehouse Big Green Egg cooking demonstration. To partake, steer your flock to the courtyard between Bantam + Biddy and Starbucks.
