Palate is a great place to take a date or relax with friends after dinner or a movie. It's a dessert and wine bar in Oakhurst, near Decatur. The desserts are fine and they have some appetizers and cheese plates if you're hungry. The wine list is extensive and they serve it all by the glass, so you can try a lot of varieties. They break the wine down into 4 tiers and charge the same price for a all glasses within any given tier. On Sunday night, any wine in an open bottle is steeply discounted. On Thursday nights this summer, they're advertising wine tastings with a $5 tasting glass. What really makes Palate a winner though is the location in the historic, restored Scottish Rite Children's Hospital. The large windows and high ceilings and the art from the neighboring Seen Gallery lend a sense of sophistication to an exciting and casual find.
