Culinaria at Appalachian Grill joins Cartersville's 'Under the Bridge' line-up

Regional fans of Appalachian Grill in Cartersville are in for a few extras next time they stop by. For one, sidewalk cafe dining is now an option in front of the Black Bear Lounge and also in front of the new Culinaria at Appalachian Grill (14 and 18 E. Church St.)

Inside, Appalachian Grill has its same charm, service and wonderful meals. But the storefront one door down is

now connected to part of the dining room and is home to jazzy culinary smorgasbord of cooking equipment, wine bottle tops, a specialty kitchen and some food-to-go.

If you haven't been on East Church in a few months, give it a look. Culinaria is a perfect bridge between downtown Cartersville's most popular restaurant and the retail shops lining East Church.

Regulars at Riverside Gourmet in Rome will get a kick out of the Cartersville shop as well.  The timing of the cafe and Culinaria are perfect as "backyard neighbor" Booth Western Art Museum prepares to open its 40,000-square-foot expansion next month.
