Homage to times with his dad.
GLENWOOD PARK — When celebrity Chef Kevin Gillespie announced his planned departure from Woodfire Grill last year to open an eatery here, residents were ecstatic. After all, Gillespie is a Top Chef alum and widely celebrated in the culinary arts world with multiple nominations for the James Beard Foundation’s “Rising Star Chef of the Year” award and a nomination for Food & Wine's “The People’s Best New Chef." And he's a resident of neighboring Ormewood Park to boot. So fans are looking forward to the eatery, which has a planned spring opening in the retail space at the corner of Garrett Street and Bill Kennedy Way.

Chef/owner Riccardo Ullio shows us how to make homemade pasta
Sotto Sotto has been in Inman Park for 13 years, serving some of the best (okay, the best) pastas and Italian fare in the city. Fritti has been dominating the authentic, gourmet pizza scene right next door for 11 years. Riccardo Ullio, the chef/owner of these two hot spots was hospitable enough to invite us into his Inman Park home to demonstrate how to make homemade pasta with a pasta machine. (Note: if you must, you can use already-made tagliatelle.) This traditional Tuscan dish is not as hard as you think. Tagliatelle with Zucchini, Saffron and Shrimp Serves: 1 (multiply recipe for more people) Time: 15 minutes (including prep) Pasta: 2 c. flour 1 egg Pasta machine (view Ullio's model here) Make a well (hole) in the flour mound and…

French chef Jalil Chikhaoui whips up one of his favorite spring dishes
Social Resto in downtown Atlanta is one of those special, tucked-away spots where first-timers become regulars and regulars don't want you to give away their secret. The casual-meets-elegant, French-meets-American spot is owned by brothers Jalil "Jay" and Rheda "Ray" Chikhaoui, who were born and raised in Lyon, France by Tunisian parents, and truly defines European hospitality at its best. Jay, Social's chef and also a certified sommelier, welcomed us into his East Point home to prepare one of his favorite simple dishes perfect for a spring evening: Chicken Milanese with Potato Gratin and a spinach salad with homemade dressing. Try it for yourself and bon appetit! Chicken Milanese with Potato Gratin and Spinach Salad Serves: 2-4 Prep/…

Benton - lol. I figured 'Gunshow' was a reference to how people show off their biceps and ask "does anyone have tickets to the gun show?" Which is funny and not at all offensive, but I like the tribute to his dad too. Either way, it will be an asset to the neighborhood, and people should not be so easily offended. Way to PC in my humble opinion. Looking forward to the trying the restaurant when … more ›
