Atlanta Food Writers Name Their Favorite Atlanta Restaurants of 2021 | Eater Atlanta

"For those who enjoy matcha and soft serve ice cream, head to Matcha Cafe Maiko on Buford Highway. The silky sweet texture of soft serve mixed with the slight bitterness of ground green tea leaves makes this ice cream pop with flavor while still being refreshing and not too sweet. For Atlanta magazine deputy editor Sam Worley, Matcha Cafe Maiko has become a regular spot for soft serve when he’s dining on Buford Highway. He likes the rotating flavor selections here. “The last time I was there, it was dalgona—the Korean sugar candy that played a memorable role in Squid Game. (Unlike on the TV show, though, at Matcha Cafe Maiko they don’t murder you if you fumble the ice cream cone.)”" - Beth McKibben
