What Au Pied de Cochon Says About Itself…
French Brasserie open 24 hours in Paris, Mexico City and Atlanta at the InterContinental Hotel, Buckhead. When the original Au Pied de Cochon opened in Paris in 1946, no one dreamed the bustling brasserie would one day be among Atlanta’s hottest dining destinations. Always open, the restaurant offers a private chef’s table, private dining room, Lover’s Booth and outdoor terrace, where you’re likely to spot locals, hotel guests and celebrities. The menu features favorites, such as Foie Gras de Canard Poélé, Escargots de Bourgogne, Steak Tartare and the city’s best jumbo shrimp on the raw seafood bar. Chef Michael Buard is originally from Paris and comes to the InterContinental Buckhead Atlanta by way of the InterContinental Chicago.

- The ambiance is stunning, with soaring ceilings, Venetian glass light fixtures and tables that can be curtained off for additional privacy. Reviewed by Jane Garvey in Georgia EMC Magazine, 0609
- I have been about 4 times and have had a good meal every time. Reviewed by the Blissful Glutton 9/05
- Pigs’ trotter (a pig’s foot), available in two versions, is the restaurant’s iconic specialty. The simpler crumbed version fills the plate end-to-end. Your waiter will present the dish and debone it for you, although trotter enthusiasts prefer to perform that function themselves. Reviewed in Gayot
