Sun In My Belly

For a forthcoming article in Epicure, I've been researching Atlanta's fried chicken. In the process, I discovered Sun In My Belly. After just a few moments in the cozy restaurant, with it's friendly vibe and quirky decor, I found myself wondering why I hadn't heard of or been there before.  I had quite literally just popped in to taste the fried chicken, so I wasn't seated long and I didn't sample anything more than what's shown in the picture--fried chicken that was a divine combo of tender, juicy meat and crispy, flaky coating. Plus green beans (usually, it's served with collard greens but the kitchen had run out, fine by me), and creamy mac-n-cheese. All fantastic. I highly recommend this meal. And I can't wait to go back and try more of the Sun In My Belly menu.

Bottom Line: Worth a visit for the fried chicken alone.
