Varuni Napoli, Downtown & Monroe Drive, Atlanta
If you're a lover of delicious, melt-in-the-mouth Italian pizzas, then head on over to Varuni Napoli. This outstanding, casual pizza company has two locations in Atlanta, one on Monroe Drive, just north of the Atlanta Botanical Garden, and a smaller grab-and-go counter location inside Krog Street Market in Downtown Atlanta.

Both locations serve up equally great pizza, with a soft chewy dough, blistered crust, and San Marzano tomato sauce. Be sure to try one of their fan favorites, such as the Amore Mio (roast artichoke, salami, and olive), or Margherita Bastardo (Pepperoni and spicy nduja sausage).

If you're not in the mood for pizza though, they have a great selection of salads on the menu if you plan on splitting a pie, or you can even grab a delicious Italian sandwich at their second location at Krog Street Market.
Talat Market, East Atlanta
Serving up a taste of Thailand, Talat Market brings to the table authentic dishes, inspired by the cuisine found in Chiang Mai.

Talat Market's extraordinary chef, Parnass Lim Savang leads the team in crafting a great range of authentic yet innovative dishes to sample from. It's recommended to visit during happy hour so that you can wash down a fragrant Thai curry with one of their unique cocktails.

Often referred to by the owner as a 'holistic cafe', Daily Chew prides itself on its nurturing and healthy dishes, making it the perfect morning pick-me-up for small groups or solo travelers.

This calming oasis allows visitors to step away from the hustle and bustle of city life, and unwind in a bright, relaxing space while enjoying a hearty rotisserie chicken or signature "brekkie bowl".

One unique selling point to this cafe (other than the delicious selection of healthy foods, of course), is the way its interior is split into two zones. One-half of the cafe boasts a communal, cafe-style interior, with a counter for grab-and-go items, while the other boasts a more relaxing zone, with couches, comfy rugs, and a selection of books to read while you unwind.

Tucked away on a street corner, Boccalupo is easy to miss unless you purposefully seek it out - something that I highly recommend doing if you're into delicious Italian cuisine. At this adorable contemporary restaurant, you can enjoy a great range of innovative dishes, inspired antipasti, curated cocktails, and a relaxed laid-back atmosphere.
