Atlanta Food: Sights Sounds and Smells of Europe

Atlanta Food: Sights Sounds and Smells

If you have been inside of a Public Market in Europe, you will know what I am talking about.  Mercat Boqueria in Barcelona was actually my first venture into a public market.

I have seen farmers markets in my life, and many of them felt like people bought bulk produce from Sysco or Sam’s Club and spread it out on a table and sold by the pound. Even though I knew the secret of where the produce came from, I still enjoyed picking up some apples from a wooden table and feeling like I purchased something special.

A few years ago, I had an opportunity to go to Spain.  After leaving Madrid, we went to Barcelona (Google Catalonia ).  There I found the Mercat Boqueria. http://www.boqueria.info One of the largest and most famous Public Markets in the world.  I went crazy and bought many things I really did not need just because of the excitement and opportunity to purchase things like a few fresh vanilla beans, or Jamon Serrano (Google that one MMMMM!)

That was a memorable trip, and I could have stayed in Spain, but that was not the time.

This year, I found a couple of markets that brought back the images of Barcelona. One is the Dekalb County Farmers Market in Decatur.

If you want to experience a real international market, you have to make the trip to Decatur.  http://www.dekalbfarmersmarket.com/ This is a rare opportunity, and smack in the middle of Georgia! Whooda Thunk it! Fish for dinner is found swimming alive in the huge tanks, and looking for a spice that is found nowhere in the Southeast, you will probably find it here.   The huge café was an international delight! While this is not necessarily a Public Market, it is the next best thing.

Dekalb is a little bit of a drive from Downtown Atlanta, and there is yet one more market that brought back the sights and smells of Barcelona, the Sweet Auburn Curb Market! www.sweetauburncurbmarket.com Right in the city!  I love a good experience, and while you may not find everything you need here, you will find enough to interest you. You have to make time to go see this wonderful historic Public Market.  Lunchtime is a great time to experience the culturally diverse offerings of this market.  From a Calzone that is unrivaled in the South East to being able to buy a single BBQ Rib from an Asian vendor complete with huge woks in their kitchen.   I bought some smoked meat to take home and put in a fresh pot of bean soup.  With easy access and free parking (rare in Atlanta) this market is an experience not to miss!

This is a place that needs some TLC and would be great to operate as a lunch business feeding downtown workers.

Does a restaurant need a web site?

Doug Marranci Restaurant Broker

Doug Marranci Atlanta Restaurant Exchange – Atlanta Georgia www.AtlantaRex.com

I believe that any business will benefit from having a website. I have worked with internet marketing for many years, and I have seen that people feel like a business has “validity” when they have a website. Web design is a passion and hobby of mine. I have created many websites.

One main point is that it should not cost a fortune to have a website. An excellent one page site and maybe a contact page is easy to accomplish. Microsoft Office Live http://www.officelive.com/ is offering a free domain and hosting for one year, as well as providing an easy way to create your own website without any experience.

Keep it simple is an adage that works well here. People need to only know the vital information about your business. IE: Cuisine, address, contact info, reviews, etc.

There are many ways to promote yourself on the internet. One example is the last restaurant that I owned. Go to google and type in: hot dog charlotte
My place is the first that comes up. City Hot Dogs, or my site www.cityhotdogs.com .. My site is still active, however it tells my friends in Charlotte that I have relocated to Atlanta!

I would be glad to assist anyone who wants to increase their presence on the internet if you currently have a site. Any GRA member is welcome to contact me, and we can meet at my office for 30 minutes and I will provide you with enough information and simple tips to get you started, at no charge! I will provide this information on a personal basis, but not publish all right here, because I support the small business folks who are making their living doing this type of work while supporting the restaurant industry.

If you don’t have the time to make your own site, look at the GRA website buyers guide and you will find great resources to create a website for you, and these people can help you optimize your site to be found on the search engines. I would highly suggest that you use one of the GRA partners to do you site. The main thing that you have with these folks is personal contact.

Every day, every restaurant receives solicitation phone calls (especially during lunch hour, don’t they know they are calling a restaurant!!!) and many big companies try to sell you a site for more than 250.00 per month. Once your site is up, their job is done. Spend your money wisely, and preferably with a local designer who knows their stuff (and preferably a supporter of GRA)

Here is a link to web search statistics for my hot dog restaurant while it was in operation.
You can see what people were searching for when they found my place. I have no doubt that my website brought new customers to my place.
http://www.atlantarex.com/statistics.pdf
Statistics

So, in summary, Yes, in my experience, a website is important, however, it does not have to cost an arm and a leg!
