There’s truly nothing better than a full stomach and open heart and there’s a great way to do both in the coming days. Sunday Supper South, the annual charity dinner held to raise funds for the James Beard Foundation’s Impact Programs, returns to Ponce City Market on Oct. 28.
Created to embrace the simple cooking philosophy and inspired flavors of the South, Sunday Supper South will be hosted by Chef Anne Quatrano and W.H. Stiles Fish Camp.
This year, the event will feature a “Bewitched” theme and honor the whole hog cuisine of Rodney Scott, a 2018 James Beard Foundation Award winner and celebrated pitmaster. Tickets are now on sale here, and a full press release with more details is here.
