Mongolian Beef and Ashphalt.
Today, I took a slow drive towards home, up one of Atlanta's greater treasures: Buford Highway. It's an explosion of ethnicity and a dumping ground for pop culture imitations and cast-offs. I can't think of any other stretch of road in the country where you'll find an assortment of establishments touting names like:
"Mi Havana Comida and Tax Service"
"Pho Kung Dragon and The Burrito"
"Dixie Guns and Motorcycle Emporium"
Granted, I'm paraphrasing here, but I'm really not that far off. I vow to do a photo exposition of Buford Highway in the near future. You will be fried, roasted and covered in salsa. I kid you not.

Work there for a year every weekend inside the buford hwy fleamarket and you'll tell me what's all about. ;-)
