You have no clue the amount of amazing awesome Asian food we have in Atlanta. You could spend a week here and eat something amazing and different every day. Most of it is in the northern parts of Atlanta and it’s suburbs. I recently moved south and the food is so bad here south of Atlanta. I am planning to travel up to Chamblee next week just for lunch and a stock up trip to H-Mart. You are so funny with the Bojangles. I was dying laughing at you. For some reason I could not fathom that you would even notice the spice in their chicken. You looked so happy eating it though.
