recently and were WOWed by the fresh tastes, rich and savory flavors and excellent service. Indian, Jamaican and Greek flavors dot the varied and healthy menu. We asked co-owner, Nilam to share her favorite childhood dish. Here's her story. MEET NILAM When I describe my childhood, the only word I can really think of is LUCKY. I grew up with one of the most incredible cooks and bakers. Almost every night, my mom would make us a beautiful dinner, and we would eat together as a family. Even at the age of 8, I devoured everything. I loved the smell of making fresh butter and the strong, pungent taste of ghee (purified butter). I fell in love with food the way most kids fall in love with Disney World or video games. Watching my mom cook and bake was always romantic and enchanting. Even on her hardest days, when the three of us were terrorizing her and tearing apart the house, she always had a smile on her face when she was in the kitchen. And now, as the cook of my house, I catch myself with that same smile. Even though she made so many amazing dishes, one of my favorites growing up was Palak Paneer. Now, it's not glamorous or fancy, but it's delicious. It's a dish my

great-grandmother used to make for her kids, and our mom made it for us, just the way I'll make it for my kids. It uses simple ingredients and can be made in less than 20 minutes. It is comfort food to me, and every bite reminds me of those family dinners I had growing up. This dish is everything my mom is to me: comforting and absolutely incredible. And, Chef Raj makes it best! Enjoy his recipe and come see us soon. CONTINUED >

pleasing views from every room to the wooded backyard with old-growth trees and a stream. The house’s character changed from a typical 1960’s ranch (dark, low ceilings, sparse windows, long halls, many small rooms) into a modern, airy, open space with high ceilings, skylights and lots of light, while keeping the charming original fireplace and affording every possible view to the outdoors. The owner’s master suite includes French doors to a deck and more serene views, a dedicated yoga space, giant sliding barn doors open to Zen-like hanging sinks and shower room with a Japanese soaking tub. The roomsized master closet is complete with a washer/ dryer for easy in-easy out. Who calls this house a home: Julie & Michael are on-again-off-again empty nesters, with 23-year-old son Conor now living in the terrace level apartment while saving to start his own business. Although adult daughter Kaitlin lives in Cabbagetown, she works down the street and pops in often for dinner. Their business, Edge Solutions, is just down the street in Old Alpharetta, located in Food Truck Alley. They walk and bike to work, the farmers market,

Size matters: The home is 3350 square plus a terrace level, and sits on just under one acre. The large gourmet kitchen opens to a dining area and expansive living areas wrapped around a two-sided fireplace. A screened porch offers an additional gathering space and a deck stretches along the length of the house, a nice perch for reading and bird-watching. An oversized master suite has access to the deck. Through the kitchen, an office sits smartly in place of the old carport along with a pantry and another half-bath and a brand new garage with a mudroom. On the terrace level is an entertainment room, kitchen, large guest room with a bath, work room and storage. This family home is ready for the next chapter.
