Nàdair (nuh-DARE from the Scots Gaelic phrase “dòigh nàdair” or “the way of nature”) is located at 1123 Zonolite Road in the former Floataway Café space. Atlanta chef and restaurateur Kevin Gillespie is drawing inspiration from 27 years of cooking in Atlanta and the Pacific Northwest and his time spent with family in New England, Scotland and the American South to create “reimagined Scottish” dishes, many cooked over an open fire. The menu is an evolution of a cooking style Kevin has thoughtfully refined for more than two decades in the kitchen. It started at Woodfire Grill, where Chef Gillespie was launched to culinary stardom in his 20s back in 2009. “Authenticity and intentionality are the guiding principles at Nàdair. We are not doing anything here ‘just because’ but rather because it’s important,” says Gillespie.
