As a Tech student I ate there many times. My father would eat lunch there 3-4 times a week in the 60’s and 70’s. I am bringing him there next week for dinner. He is 89 years old and it’s one of only places he wants to eat on his visit to Atlanta other than the Varsity.

I am taking my mother there for no special ocassion, she’s just always wanted to go and I could never find the time with my busy schedule of school and work. But I have set a date and I am sticking to it. I can’t wait!

Ponce de Leon has gone though a lot of changes. I am a fried chicken fan, 7 day a week I eat chicken not always freid, but it is my favorite. Thanks again God Bless

Mrs. Margaret Lupo goes over the menu and tells the News Monster’s food and adult beverage editor, Ted Vigodsky, how she transformed Mary Macs on Ponce de Leon into a world class restaurant. (From December 16th, 1983.)

Limited holiday posting through Christmas 2011.

Thanks for reminding me about our kindergarten teacher’s name. I had forgotten.
I am really enjoying looking back at my life with Mother and the inspiration she was to me for following one’s passion. She certainly did! And, Mary Mac’s was an amazing testament to that.
Marie

Thanks for this walk down memory lane. Pam Foster, here. You and I have a bit of shared history – you were at my 6th birthday party! We were in Mrs. Cunningham’s kindergarten class together. We also have a friend in common. Karen Carter used to spend afternoons in the kitchen at Mary Mac’s with you. Your site, blog, Serenbe itself – breaths of fresh air. Thanks for doing what you do, following your passion.
- Pam

I work with John Ferrell on Mary Macs marketing items like the book and website, but I’m a huge fan of the history of the area. Thanks for taking the time to write and post it. And of course we love Serenbe. Haven’t been in a while but always love it.
