The 5 Best Vegan Restaurants in Atlanta, According to Jermaine Dupri

If Jermaine Dupri were to write a song inspired by a vegan breakfast sandwich it would likely be the vegan "Buttermilk biscuit" JUST egg sandwich served up at Gregory's Breakfast place in Atlanta. It is... "Amazing!" As amazing and inspiring as his own musical artistry, which includes producing, writing, and recording hit hip hop and R&B songs that are memorable enough to get him into the Songwriter's Hall of Fame.

Although Gregory's is off the usual beaten path for Dupri, he went out of his way to try it.
