'Hood Talk

Following the recent news that Pura Vida/Super Pan/Abattoir chef Hector Santiago will help open forthcoming restaurant Big Sky Buckhead, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution poses a good question: "Could this be the beginning of a renaissance of the Buckhead dining scene?"

Leave opinions in the comments. [AJC]
