Paul looks ahead to Alpharetta Grand Tasting: Grand Tasting Alpharetta, presented by Taste of Atlanta, will take over The Hotel at Avalon on Thursday, August 27th from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., filling the ballroom with more than two dozen of the community’s top restaurants and beverage partners. In other words, the event is a culinary journey through Alpharetta all under one roof, with top chefs and owners serving up samples of what makes their respective restaurants so special. And yes, the entire evening will be accompanied by one heck of a soundtrack: local favorites Bogey and the Viceroy will play live during the event!
