The Atlanta Falcons showcased the new restaurants coming to Mercedes Benz Stadium during a preview event in downtown Altanta on Wednesday.
Participants were treated to favorite standbys such as The Varsity’s chili dogs and Chick-fil-A’s chicken sandwiches to pork cheek tacos from The Iberian Pig and curry chicken salad from Snackology 101.
“We decided to take a different approach based on our philosophy of listen and respond by asking the most important people – the fans – what they want. We’ve responded,” AMB Sports & Entertainment President Rich McKay said during the event. “Tonight we showcased the best of Atlanta’s restaurants chosen by our fans.”
