A great event is coming to SweetWater Brewery this Saturday, November 21. PRIMAL describes itself as "a celebration of the culinary arts' appreciation for wood fired cooking methods, butchers, and whole animal utilization". Attendees will be able to watch as butchers demonstrate how to break down a cow, pig, goat and lamb. The meats will then be prepared over wood fires by local chefs. Attendees will also be able to enjoy sample a selection of wines and brews. While the meats cook, Grindhouse Killers Burgers will be on hand to prepare sustainable sliders from the freshly butchered brisket and top round cuts. Farm 255 will also hold a sausage-making demo and provide samples for attendees to enjoy.
Tickets for the event are still available at a cost of $55 for general admission and $100 for the VIP experience. VIP tickets include the opportunity to sample wood-fired oysters, Allen Benton's Bacon, fire-toasted breads, whole wheels of artisan cheeses (grilled over hardwood), and a selection of reserve wines and beers. PRIMAL promises to be educational as well as delicious! The event will be held from 6-9PM this Saturday evening (VIP experience begins at 5:30 PM).

Quick Bites: Essex Bagels & Deli
I stopped by Essex a couple of weeks ago (thanks to Chow Down Atlanta's heads up) . These bagels are massive, fresh, chewy and delicious. I fell in love with the Everything & Cinnamon-Raisin varieties (easily my favorites of the half-dozen I picked up that day). Pick up one of their flavored cream cheeses to go along with your bagels (I'm partial to Horseradish Bacon). A full breakfast menu (which includes hot breakfast sandwiches and three egg omelettes) is served all day. Essex is located at Johns Creek Walk, near the interection of Medlock Bridge & Bell Rd.Essex Bagels & Deli
