Last Friday, my mom volunteered to babysit our kids so my dear husband took me out to dinner.  (We never turn down free babysitting from the grandparents!)  We went to The Old Mill Restaurant in Acworth, Georgia and I think it's my new favorite restaurant.

The atmosphere was so romantic and I loved the history of the building.....especially the story of the founder of the Mill, John Cowan, and the "Four Georgians" who went out to Montana in search of gold.  I had so much fun walking around and looking at the old photographs of Acworth on the walls. 

We had fried green tomatoes with roasted red pepper and goat cheese for an appetizer, Salmon that was perfectly cooked and served on a cedar plank, and sides that were so Southern it brought back memories of my childhood!  The okra tasted exactly like my Grandmother's, it actually brought tears to my eyes to remember it.

The service was also great....our waiter was very professional and attentive.  They had live music that was so nice and I later found out that the pianist was one of the owners!

If you haven't been, check it out.....dining at The Old Mill Restaurant is a great experience.  It's 5 star in my book!
