State Farm Arena added Irie Mon Cafe (Section 219) and Sandy Springs' Bocado Pizza (Section 109) for the Hawks' home opener on Saturday, Oct. 24, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported. Irie Mon, which has six Atlanta-area locations, is the arena's first Caribbean restaurant and serves jerk chicken wings, Rasta pasta and brown stew oxtail. Chief culinary officer Chef G. Garvin also added new items such as an ATL Firecracker Corndog and dirty sodas.
Why It Matters for Atlanta Professionals
