Not that I do much at all myself, but I'm sure everyone has heard things about ATL. Below is a link of what is considered 50 fun things to do in Atlanta.
http://www.atlanta.net/50funthings/index1.htm
The only things I saw that I have done in the list are the following:
Stone Mountain Park
Six Flags over Georgia
Centennial Park
City of Decatur(Downtown Decatur scene)
Piedmont Park
Atlantic Station
Buckhead scene
Downtown Atlanta/Underground
Malls(Lenox, Phipps, Perimeter, Stonecrest, Northlake)
Virginia-Highlands
I'm very boring and laid back. I love the restaurant and bar scene(Barnacle's, Dudley's, Los Arcos, El Azteca, Spondivits, Pappadeaux, Chequers, etc.). Let's not forget my favorite spots with drink specials(Chili's and Applebee's). I have also been to events at the Georgia Dome(Battle of the Bands) and Philips Arena(Mariah Carey Concert). I've been to Too Groovy spa off Ponce De Leon. I've attended the Car & Bike Show. I know it does look like I do a lot. However, I'm pretty much a homebody.
Are there any good predominately AA neighborhoods?
I hear there are some in Lithonia and Conyers(which is about 25 min from downtown). However, they are rebuidling a lot of the downtown area right now.
Where do the young professionals hang out?
There is a club called Twist that is great for sophisticated adults who want to network and mingle.
Where are the clubs and hot spots?
Depends on what you like. There are tons of clubs. My ghetto friend's love Mama's Primetime and The Ritz.
What are the favorite AA-owned businesses?
I like a restaurant called Arizona's that is AA owned. I don't really do my research to know about who owns what.
Is there a First Friday's or other events?
Good question. I don't know.
How are the men and the dating scene?
Like someone else said, don't be naive. Plenty of DL men.
