#54 - Visit three new neighborhoods around Atlanta (50/101).

I live in the Virginia Highlands neighborhood of Atlanta, Georgia. I have lived in Atlanta for two years and have tried to make an effort to explore as many neighborhoods as possible - here are three neighborhood highlights:

• Candler Park: Candler Park is a cute neighborhood south of where I live in Atlanta. I first ventured to Candler Park to eat brunch at Gato, a diner neighborhood that has a bunch of eclectic cat trinkets lining the walls. I ate huevos rancheros and shared sweet potato pancakes with friends, it was delicious! It is a tiny restaurant so we waited for a table for a bit and got to explore some of the small shops, restaurants and graffiti in the neighborhood. Fun fact: the original Flying Biscuit is also in Candler Park.
• Grant Park: I have enjoyed exploring different parts of Grant Park, both parts of the 130 acre park and some of the restaurants close by. I have not gone to Grant Park without there being some type of festival going on there, so it has been fun exploring the park while also seeing lively and sometimes quirky festivals. I have also ate at Mezcalitos (delicious margaritas).  I have not had a chance to explore the Oakland Cemetery, which is quite close to Grant Park, so will have to return to explore the cemetery at some point.
• Decatur: I have been to Decatur a few times, to eat at some of the delicious restaurants and most recently, to solve the Clue Town Downtown Decatur scavenger hunt. Clue Town is a company that creates ready-to-solve scavenger hunts around the Atlanta area and uses clues on plaques, statues, etc. and a compass to allow you to explore an area while taking part in a scavenger hunt. Before we got started, we went to Chai Pani, an Indian street food restaurant, for a delicious lunch. After lunch, we started the scavenger hunt which led us around Downtown Decatur and through a series of thirteen clues and riddles to solve. It was so fun!
