"Getting a bucket of fried chicken in Atlanta isn’t as easy as it should be, but Mother’s Best Chicken in Decatur delivers when you need a cool place to feed a small crew. Buckets range from half- to two whole birds and come with two or three sides, like savory LA-style red beans and rice and tangy collard green coleslaw. The thin, crunchy, herby chicken breading is outstanding. The food comes out fast. And the nostalgic diner vibes are fun. Just know the place gets packed, so come for a late lunch or early dinner unless you want to perfect your speed-eating technique while making awkward eye contact with the people hovering near your table." - jacinta howard
