Ladybird heads west, with free parking

The Beltline favorite opened its second location in West Midtown, with an opening-weekend party, giveaways, and live music.

Good to know: customers get two hours of validated parking in the lot next door, a big deal in a neighborhood known for parking headaches.

Paschal's: Atlanta soul food since 1947

Robert Paschal's secret fried chicken and scratch-made Southern sides, served in Castleberry Hill and on Concourse B at Hartsfield-Jackson. The same family kitchen that fed civil rights leaders in the 1960s.
