Anne Quatrano, the chef and restaurateur behind Bacchanalia, Floataway Café, Star Provisions, and Abattoir, will be creating traditional Southern picnic dishes for a Nickel Bottom Community Garden fundraiser on May 19. The event, called BUDS, will take place from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. behind Floataway Café and include bocce, cornhole, live music, a raffle, a wildlife release, and of course, food prepared by Quatrano and Floataway executive chef Todd Immel.

Todd Immel, who has run the meat department at Star Provisions since 2008, has been named executive chef of Floataway Cafe. Under Immel's control the meat department flourished, putting out fresh sausages, terrines, and cured meats that rival the best in any butcher shop or restaurant in Atlanta. Speaking over the phone, Immel said that helming Floataway Cafe, which is part of the Anne Quattrano owned restaurant group that owns Star Provisions, had been in his sights for some time.
