Listen to the episode here! Today on
Atlanta Craves we take a trip down fabled Buford Highway, the bustling corridor
that runs from midtown through Brookhaven, Chamblee, Doraville and beyond 285
into Gwinnett county. This fascinating melting pot includes distinct pockets of Korean, Mexican, Chinese, Vietnamese,
Indian, Bangladeshi, Central American, Somali, and Ethiopian business and
culture.And, perhaps most known to
Atlantans are its dizzying variety of restaurants.
Today
we are joined by Lily Pabian from the non-profit organization, We Love
BuHi.We Love BuHi's mission is to bring
individuals and communities together for multicultural experiences shared
through our people, places, and stories to create connection, awareness, and
belonging within Buford Highway's international corridor. Welcome,
Lily. Let's talk about Buford
Highway!
