Mrs. Helen Harden, founder of Bankhead Seafood, passed away Sunday, weeks after I interviewed her on opening day of the reimagined Westside Atlanta restaurant. She was as real as they come and a pillar of her community — an amazing lady who lived to see her dream realized. 🕊️🙏🏾

I’m at what I think is the best restaurant in Atlanta — which I’d put up against any restaurant in America — for the second night in a row and thank God for great restaurants and the great people who make them great. Also I’ve had wine so I might be geeked but it’s true.
