Weekends are perfect for rising late and going to brunch.
With so many options available, Atlantans can have sweet or savory dishes to kick off their Saturday or Sunday.
But which dish do brunch-goers turn to more than the others?
For another year, our readers chose the Comfy Chicken Biscuit at Home Grown as the Best of Atlanta brunch dish. This fluffy buttermilk biscuit topped with fried chicken and sausage gravy garnered nearly a third of all the votes and nearly twice as many votes as its closest competitors.
Tied for second place were the Peach Cobbler French Toast at Atlanta Breakfast Club and the Pimento Cheese Omelet at Buttermilk Kitchen.
Atlanta Breakfast Club executive chef Anthony Sanders had Georgia on his mind when he created his peach cobbler French toast, Wendell Brock wrote for The AJC last year. "To put a local twist on the classic, fried-bread confection, he dollops it with a brown-butter peach compote fortified with a kiss or two of John Pemberton's secret recipe."
Why have a cheese omelet when you can have a pimento cheese omelet? Did we mention it also has smoked bacon and housemade red pepper jelly? Well, now we have.
Next weekend, why not try something new?
