Situated in a cozy space adjacent to the Akers Mill Food Mart is the most recent addition to the metro Atlanta BBQ scene, Heirloom Market BBQ . Lauched by Cody Taylor and Jiyeon Lee, Heirloom is wrapping up its first week of business. In speaking with Cody several times in the run up to the opening, I learned that both he and Jiyeon have culinary backgrounds in fine dining (Repast and St. Regis, respectively) . The menu will feature traditional BBQ dishes along with a rotating list of side dishes that bear a distinct chef touch. Asian influences will also show up in subtle ways throughout the menu. When I visited Heirloom today, there was a Korean BBQ short rib on the specials menu. Given that Heirloom is just getting its legs underneath it, a review at this point would certainly be premature. I intend to visit Cody and Jiyeon for the next few weeks and sample some of the other dishes that they intend to offer (pork belly, rib tips, burnt ends, etc.) But the photos from today's visit came out so well, I could not stand to sit on them until I was ready to write a full profile. Hopefully, they will get you excited about Heirloom Market and you'll pay them a visit (2243 Akers Mill Rd. Atlanta, GA 30339).
