"Named for British painter Lucian Freud, this Buckhead wine cafe and bookstore at 3005 Peachtree Road (projected to open in June) is owned by sommelier Jordan Smelt and former Cover Books owner Katie Barringer; I learned it will specialize in books on art, design, food, and culture and carry nearly 250 wines by the bottle and 15 wines by the glass, and that chef Brian Hendrickson will lead a kitchen serving wine-friendly food throughout the day with larger, shareable dishes at dinner that pair easily with a mostly European-leaning wine list." - Beth McKibben
