CAGE MATCH
Beer vs. Wine at 5 Seasons Westside
Tonight, bear witness to an epic battle between good and... good. The Beer vs. Wine Dinner lets you pit five
dishes (from Almond Dusted Skate Wing to Ginger Crème Brûlée) against five wines and
five beers, with you determining the winner based on which pairings you prefer. But at least you'll have 10
drinks to figure that out.
- 411:
- Jun 10, 7pm, $55, 5 Seasons Westside, 1000 Marietta St NW, 404-875-3232

THEY SEE ME STROLLIN' Wine, Wings and Lemonade at Project Pushpin The new lofts at Castleberry Hill are luring in art strollers with a new photo exhibition—not to mention wings from J.R. Crickets, frozen lemonade, a few strategic bottles of wine and a DJ. Just don't get any sauce on the prints. |

HORSEPLAY
Backstage at the Crazy Horse in Paris
Ah yes, Le Crazy Horse de Paris... legendary cabaret and high-kick institution since 1951. If you've ever
wondered what goes on backstage there (and you have), Janusz Kawa's exhibition of au naturel
black-and-whites called Girls of the Crazy Horse takes you beyond the fourth wall and into the
dressing room. Try to act natural.
- 411:
- Through Jun 24 (Mon-Fri 10am-5pm, Sat 11am-5pm), Hagedorn Foundation Gallery, 425 Peachtree Hills Ave #25, 404-492-7718
SOCIAL SOCCERING
Like Facebook for Soccer
It happens every four years... that sudden, World Cup-inspired urge to dust off your cleats and take to the
field. This calls for a co-ed pickup game. Infinite Soccer will tell you where to find it, who's playing,
their skill level and what kind of trash they're talking. Which will no doubt pale in comparison to your
cutting barbs.
HIGH STEAKS
Sunday Power Dining at Prime
For the most part, you try to keep your power dinnering (and power cocktailing) on a Monday-to-Friday basis.
But in case you need to put in a little overtime, Prime is now offering half-off steaks (petite filets, NY
strips and rib eyes) all night every Sunday. Think of it as casual Sundays.
- 411:
- Sundays, 4-9pm, Mon-Fri, 5-6:15pm, Prime, 3393 Peachtree Rd NE, 404-812-0555
POPPING CORKS
Half-Priced Wine at Joël
Tuesdays have always been a bit of a weekday stepchild. Thankfully, Joël Brasserie (your favorite
socialite-friendly oasis of osso bucco and truffles) has embraced this day as its own and is now offering
half-priced wine by the glass and bottle every Tuesday night. Because sometimes Thursday needs to be put in
its place.
- 411:
- Tuesdays, 5:30-10pm, Joël Brasserie, 3290 Northside Pkwy, 404-233-3500
