The recent spate of closings (Dynamic Dish, Shaun’s, and, just announced today, Vickery’s in Midtown) and the modest pace of openings made 2010 one of the bleaker years for Atlanta’s recent dining scene history. So let’s look to the future with a brief roundup of the restaurants announced for 2011:

Food Photos of the Week: October 22-26, 2012
This week, our eyes (and taste buds) were attracted to Asha Gomez's fancy kitchen layout, a low-lit Fennel Old Fashion from Double Zero Napoletana, a messy but delicious looking platter of something or other at Bone Lick BBQ, a shot of pork belly and turnips from Hugh Acheson that looks like it could be a painting hanging on a wall at the MOMA, and an enigmatic shot from Fifth Group's Michael Erickson of what I can only guess are peas with freezer-burn.
