Kyma

Last week my best foodie friend and I decided to partake in Buckhead Restaurant Week, and after much heated discussion and research of the prix-fixe menus, we decided to go to Kyma.  Once we got there, we ended up ignoring the prix-fixe menu and ordered four small plates off the regular menu as this was more economical and gave us more cash to spend on the equally important part of the meal, the wine.

The Zucchini Fritters were the first to arrive and they came with a saffron yogurt dipping sauce.  The fritters were more like lightly battered cheese balls with a hint of a vegetable...delicious.  The sauce was a bit sweet and a good accompaniment to the fritters.

Next, we tried the prawns which came in a tomato sauce with feta cheese crumbles.  The sauce was amazing!  After we finished the prawns, I was literally spooning the sauce into my mouth.  The prawns were good, but just a little tough and a bit dry. But that sauce.

We then were brought the scallops atop a yellow split pea puree.  The scallops were cut thin and were perfectly cooked.  The combo of the scallop, pea puree, and the capers were super delicious, salty, sweet, and a little tangy.

Finally, we had originally ordered the spanakopita, but we realized it had been forgotten.  Fortunately, we were already super full and told our nice server we were ok without it.  Out server was so sweet about the whole thing and brought us a free dessert!  We each received one of these delectable donut spheres topped with cinnamon and honey.  I think this was probably way more appreciated than the spanakopita would have been.  It was the perfect little bite to end our meal!
