"Named for the Parisian neighborhood where you’re most likely to find a sweets shop on every corner, this Old Fourth Ward favorite fuses the best of French patisserie with Southern hospitality courtesy of husband-and-wife team Heather and Mathieu Jourdan-Gassin. In addition to jewel box-worthy tarts and impeccable patisserie, the bakery serves perfectly flaky croissants that are sure to please the pickiest French mother-in-law. Be sure to try the macarons in flavors like raspberry violette and mango mimosa. You can also order a full cake in advance that serves six to eight people." - Sarah Bisacca
"You can find this fun wine bar inside a small house on St. Claude in the Bywater. They have a great selection of natural wines and a reservations-only, 10-course tasting menu that’s full of surprising dishes in a dining room reminiscent of a friend’s cozy apartment. The menu is always rotating, but think fermenting, braising, smoking, poaching—anything that can be done to get the most out of seasonal, local produce (a recent favorite featured prawns served with fermented tomato). If you can’t make reservations and the weather’s nice, stop by for some wine on the first-come, first-served garden patio." - Chelsea Brasted
"If you need to contribute a dish to a dinner gathering, walk in like a winner with one of Saint Germain’s savory quiches (we’re eyeing the one with salmon, dill, and capers) or dessert (like pumpkin pie, or you could show off with the custard-filled gâteau basque). Place your order before November 21 for pickup from their PCM or Buckhead Village locations. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation
"This Atlanta-based French bakery chain is known for their display cases of beautiful pastries, like their peach-shaped one with a velvety custard filling or their lemon cube cake, which looks like one of those bubble cube candles. And if you love macarons, Saint Germain has some of the city’s best, with one of the largest selections (nearly 20 flavors). We prefer their spacious venue in the Interlock because it feels like stepping into a Paris cafe with indoor and outdoor seating and small circular tables just big enough to hold your laptop, a coffee cup, and saucer. There are a few larger tables if you're trying to use the place as an office and work your way from breakfast quiches to afternoon sandwiches." - Nina Reeder
