This past weekend Retaaza had the opportunity to support the James Beard Foundation through the Sunday Supper South event at Ponce City Market (PCM).

‍

Dinner was created by a range of talented chefs from all over Georgia (listed below) and curated by host chefs Anne Quatrano and Clifford Harrison, who are the Executive chefs and owners of Bacchanalia, Floataway Café, Star Provisions Market & Café, Little Star Provisions Sandwich Shop, and W.H. Stiles Fish Camp in Atlanta.

It has been three years since the last dinner in Atlanta, and we are proud to have been a part of it. The Sunday Supper South dinner raises funds for the James Beard Foundation. This year's theme was to pay tribute to the harvest of southern farms. Guests enjoyed dishes from a menu that was veggie-forward, sourced from some of our favorite local farms like White Oak Pastures, Riverview Farms, Woodland Gardens, Crystal Organic Farm, Sweet Grass Dairy, and more. And, Atlanta’s most talented pastry chefs created an amazing dessert table at the end of the evening.

All of this took place along the Atlanta BeltLine’s Eastside Trail at The Shed. Retaaza sourced produce for the cocktails that were served from Atlanta’s top beverage industry vets. The whole event and dinner took place on PCM’s third floor in the Trestle. Guests dined around festive communal tables in an orange and blue, candlelit, industrial space.
