Beloved Decatur restaurant Cakes & Ales announced earlier today that it will close its doors at 155 Sycamore St. this weekend, and people aren't ready to say goodbye.
The restaurant was highly-lauded during its 10 year run -- AJC food editor Ligaya Figueras named it her favorite restaurant in Atlanta last year , and former AJC food critic John Kessler gave it a four star review in 2011.
Before you have that last perfectly prepared arancini, take a look back at Cakes & Ale in photos over the past decade:
