Summary ? Atlanta Restaurants

I recently posted a request for suggestions for eating in Atlanta 
within walking distance of the convention center because my GF daughter 
and I were traveling to the city for a big cheerleading competition.  
Thank you to my responders!

I received one response from someone looking forward to seeing the 
summary.

One person suggested I could take the MARTA metro trains to the Lenox 
stop.  They also advised me that Atlanta has a very active support 
group that could be helpful.

Another person sent me a list of contact information for the support 
group and listed some suggested Atlanta restaurants.  I?ve included the 
list at the end of the summary.

So here?s what I ended up doing:

There's not a lot of free time at these competitions, so I really 
needed to find things that were fast and within walking distance.

I called the Holiday Inn ahead of time and spoke to the kitchen 
manager.  He was fantastic.  We talked about cross contamination and 
what on the menu would be easy to adjust.  I felt like I was in very 
good hands and it went very well.

I also called the Convention Center ahead of time and spoke with the 
executive chef.  He told me what would be sold at the event and we 
worked together to identify safe foods.

Fortunately, the CNN building next to the convention center has an 
eatery with a Wendy?s and a Chick Fila .  There also a McCormicks & 
Schmidts Seafood restaurant at the CNN building.  They are usually very 
helpful, but I didn?t have an opportunity to go there.
