We are in Athens, GA, attending the
ThinkTank conference (radical art education). We made our way down to
Weaver D's, near downtown on Broad Street. It is famous for the "Automatic for the People" sign that influenced REM. We had to go late (it closes around 6pm). I would recommend going for lunch because they were out of some things. However, we had the sweet potato souffle. It was smooth, citrusy, and not too sweet. It was delicious! HB's catfish was amazing- light, tender and perfectly fried. It could give Taylor Grocery a run for its money.
Weaver D's aesthetic (oil cloth/panelling/random posters) is comfortable and no-nonsense and fits in with the "list." Although the menu is smallish, all items fall into the comfort/soul category. I should have gotten a fried porkchop sandwich to go....
