"When chef Angus Brown died unexpectedly in early 2017, four months after opening 8Arm, many wondered whether his funky, rule-breaking restaurant would survive. Chef Maricela Vega’s arrival last March answered that question in triumphant fashion. Her fearless menu—13 inventive plates, most of them meatless—has sent Atlanta’s food world into a tizzy. Locals show up in droves to 8Arm’s small white-brick building, which sits in the shadow of Ponce City Market in the Poncey-Highland neighborhood." - Allison Weiss Entrekin
