Beyond the Hospitality Dinner – SOLD OUT

We have teamed up with Euphoria to bring SSF founder Chris Shepherd to Greenville to collaborate with Chef Michael Kramer of JIANNA for an unforgettable evening.

Guests will enjoy a carefully crafted menu while making a meaningful impact on the lives of the hard-working individuals who bring flavor and joy to our dining experiences. The talented lineup will share stories of their journeys in the hospitality industry, emphasizing how food and wine serve as the threads that weave communities together and how important it is to support our hospitality community. As you create memorable connections & experiences, your glass will be filled with perfectly paired wines from our local urban winery, Carter Family Wines.

$35 from every ticket purchased will directly support the hospitality industry through the Southern Smoke Foundation. We thank you for your generosity.
