Fearless Innovation

This book explores the impact the immigrant community of Atlanta has on the food being served in restaurants across the city.

Atlanta is a cosmopolitan city made up of many immigrant cultures. That fact can be traced to the number of Fortune 500 companies headquartered here, the concentration of renowned institutions of higher learning and, of course, the presence of Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, the world’s busiest and most efficient. Atlanta enjoys large Korean, Taiwanese, Vietnamese and Indian communities in addition to South African, Brazilian and Mexican populations. A visit to Buford Highway Farmers Market will establish very quickly, through the dedicated country aisles, that there are many Russians, Chinese, Japanese Jamaicans, Nigerians, Ethiopians, Thais, Laotians and so many more nations that call Atlanta home.
