Catherine Lee with the City of Decatur writes in with this big news for Decatur restaurant watchers, who have been waiting for confirmation of this since a report back in May.  Here it is…

Guy Wong has signed a lease at 312 Church St. and will open up Big Boss Chinese in late 2014. It’s going to be amazing – affordable (and delicious) Chinese food, great drinks, and possibly some karaoke.

Ms. Lee notes the space will be a bit hidden from the street.  I believe it’s the space in the old book bindery building behind Sapori di Napoli, but I’m still working to confirm that.

This has been fermenting in the background of Decatur’s food and drink news scene for a couple of months now, and it’s suddenly snuck up on me!  Three Taverns Brewery and Tasting Room opens to the public tomorrow!  Nice spread in Atlanta Magazine today…

Purcell says the Three Taverns tasting experience will run similar to that at SweetWater Brewing Co. Drinkers will pay $12 and receive a souvenir tasting glass plus six tokens redeemable for 5.5-ounce pours. Initially, three or four beers will be available, including the five percent Belgian-style Single Intent, a 7.5 percent Belgian-style American IPA called A Night in Brussels, and a Russian imperial stout named Theophan the Recluse. The Three Taverns-Twains collaboration, called Decatur Ryeson, may be served as well.

“The unveiling of the tasting room will be an unexpected surprise for everyone,” Purcell says. “There’s a lot of texture. You’ll have an experience like you walked into an older time. It’s a very Old World experience.”
