Restaurateur Justin Anthony of 10 Degrees South opened yet another spot focusing on South African cuisine. Yebo Beach Haus, a new interpretation of his restaurant, Yebo, that closed at Phipps Plaza in April, is located in the former Coast space on West Paces Ferry. The revamped menu features South African- American fusion—think shrimp peri-peri tacos, tomato and watermelon bruschetta, grilled swordfish sandwiches and boerewors (a type of minced-meat sausage) meatballs.
It just got a little bit easier to get your hands on some of our favorite goat cheese now that Alabama-based Belle Chevre is sold at Publix, including those in Buckhead. Currently, only Belle Chevre’s four breakfast cheeses are available, but trust us when we say the Honey, Coffee, Fig and Cinnamon varieties are good any time of the day.
Just in time for summer, The St. Regis Atlanta is now offering a special outdoor series at The St. Regis Bar every Wednesday night from 6 to 8 p.m. Guests of Tapas on the Terrace ($25 per person, includes unlimited food and a featured beverage) can watch the chefs grill up tapas-style dishes influenced by different global cuisines. The experience is topped off by live music.

Fans of the Yumbii food truck tacos and sliders will find it easier to locate them these days. That’s because 32-year-old Buckhead resident Carson Young has added a third truck to the fleet. But it’s more than just any food truck—it’s a high-tech “Super Food Truck” that’s totally eco-friendly. The truck’s exhaust is converted into nitrogen gas and water vapor that drastically reduces emissions. It’s the first of its kind on the entire East Coast and makes Yumbii the first Atlanta food truck with three vehicles. Pretty cool.
