The Abbey Restaurant. The Abbey in Atlanta, Georgia provides a unique dining experience. The restaurant is in an old church and has 60 foot ceilings and stained glass windows. The male staff wear monks[base '] robes and the food is elegant, including a butter poached lobster with Jerusalem artichokes and a pan seared ostrich loin. The Abbey is large but there are private and semi-private dining areas available in the sanctuary, the wine cellar and the altar. The restaurant also has a cigar-friendly lounge area and a wine list which has earned Wine Spectator[base ']s Award of Excellence. [Luxist] 9:32:22 PM    comment []

But if you're paying a visit soon, check out the shop list . From Japan Today and Media Tinker . - Mia [Popgadget: Personal Tech for Women] 9:30:19 PM    comment []
