Porsche’s ‘Restaurant 356’ Planning Coca Cola-Inspired Prix Fixe Menu To Honor Bob Akin Racing
Porsche’s in-house restaurant within the Porsche Experience Center Atlanta, is hosting a new and creative Coca Cola-inspired menu of dishes to honor Bob Akin Racing’s contribution to Porsche’s history. Make your reservation now!
In case you were unaware, Restaurant 356 is Porsche's upscale dining experience located on the second floor of the Porsche Experience Center in Atlanta, Georgia (PEC ATL). Their head chef is a graduate of Le Cordon Bleu Paris, worked in the kitchens of Le Meurice, and has studied under three Michelin Star-awarded chefs. Needless to say, Porsche has an excellent kitchen and an excellent menu.
Being that Coca Cola is so inextricably linked with Porsche, primarily as racing sponsors for numerous seasons on the flanks of Bob Akin's 962s and 935s in IMSA racing, and secondarily as they both have their North American headquarters in the Southern economic capital of Atlanta. To honor the connection with Akin and Coca Cola, Restaurant 356 has put together four-course prix fixe meal that is inspired by Coca Cola flavors. The meal is only available on selected non-holiday Fridays through November and December, and limited seats are available, so make your reservation now if you're so inclined.
