Saying goodbye to the things you've created always comes with a rush of reminiscence. I can't imagine what Dante has gone through traveling through 43 years of memories. See the process of saying goodbye to Dante's Down the Hatch in the documentary now on Kickstarter. www.kickstarter.com/projects/1034533204/dantes-down-the-hatch?ref=user_menu

Matches

A match only lasts but so long, much like the people that come in and out of our lives. If you want that fire to keep burning you must use that flame to ignite something that will burn brighter and longer, you have to participate. Sometimes it becomes difficult to manage but if you tend the fire it's well worth it in the end.

The coolest restaurant around. I first heard of Dantes from a few Navy buddies that said we had to go. After visiting the first time we had the opportunity to speak with him about his past. What a great guy. Will be missed. Thanks for the Video. great memory.
Funnest restaurant I've ever been to. It was heartbreaking to hear it was closing. You could be seated in a waterfront harbor town looking out an open "window" at the ship and a starry sky. Or you might be on the ship itself. The lady's room was haunted. If I remember right there was a ghostly witch behind the mirror. I might be wrong about that. I did see it, but I'm male, so what was I doing in the lady's room? Maybe my g/f or mother/sister pulled me in there to see it. Or maybe it was the men's room I'm not exactly sure. I'm also not exactly sure what triggered it. A tile on the floor?
Where can I find the full length documentary? Any time I was in the Atlanta area, we always went to Dante's.

Thank you for the memory. One of my all time favorite dining experiences🎶👸🏻🐊🎉
I really hated to hear that Dante's Down The Hatch closed... It truly was a landmark of Atlanta and it disheartens me that I will never be able to take my children to experience the aura, mystique and ambience that Dante's gave to the public. It truly was a one of a kind place that will never be able to be recreated...thanks for memorializing this restaurant with your documentary!
TooTall3277 thanks for saying that, it was my favorite safe space!
Is he still apart of the American Private Railcar Association? I worked on a private before and spoke with him once. I Book for Independent and National Artist now. Was curious what all jazz groups played at his venue
Where is Dante these days? What cool jazz artist played at his venue
Noel Bradley Dante is living the life, still living on the train car and taking trips all over the world. Many of them are to ride on other trains.
Noel Bradley the John Robertson trio plays as the staple. You might be thinking of Freddy Cole, he’d come in a lot to say hi and sing a tune.
@@jefbredemeier Is Dante still around living the good life?
Heather Bailey yes he is, he’s still on his train and a few of us check in on him regularly. JT is living close and works with him daily.
@@jefbredemeier I am sorry to say that Dante passed away yesterday evening. RIP Dante
the film is wonderful, Jef...such a great story and a magical place!
HOLY HELL BUDDY! Freaking Amazing!!
