Atlanta Restaurants: College Park Restaurant Virgil’s Gullah Kitchen and Bar Is Opening on Marietta Street in Atlanta - Eater Atlanta

"Virgil’s first opened three years ago on Main Street in College Park, serving soul food takes on Gullah Geechee cuisine, including crab rice, red rice, and shrimp and crab gravy. Gee Smalls was born and raised on James Island, north of Charleston, and many of the dishes listed on the menu are based on recipes handed down from family members still living on the island. The restaurant is named for Smalls’ late father and features a mural of its namesake created by local Atlanta artist C. Flux Sing, who hails from Charleston." - Beth McKibben
