"There is a block in Atlanta where you don’t need 88mph and 1.21 gigawatts to do a little time traveling. Juxtaposed with contemporary and luxurious north Buckhead homes, the Mt. Paran Country Store stands out as a beacon of the past. It’s a seventy-five-year-old convenience store with a hot bar of biscuits and sandwiches. The friendly cashier was excited to tell me that Robin Williams’ movie, A Merry Friggin’ Christmas, was filmed inside the store. If you need a place in the neighborhood to take an Instagram photo worthy of that Lord Kelvin filter, I’d recommend this spot." - Russell Shaw Design
