Atlanta Restaurants Satisfy with Seafood and Vegan Offerings During Lent
The season of Lent spans 40 days—beginning on Ash Wednesday, Feb. 22 and culminating on Thursday, April 6—a time when Christians worldwide fast, pray and offer service to others. During Lent, many refrain from eating red meat, particularly on Fridays. From fine dining to fast casual, Atlanta restaurants offer numerous vegetarian and seafood selections to satisfy guests such as the multi-course vegan tasting menu at Georgia Boy, seared jumbo scallops at Ocean & Acre, a limited-time fish tikka masala at NaanStop and the Fisherman’s Deck sandwich at Zunzi’s.
