Pay It Forward - The Next Great Chefs

In our kitchens and businesses, we believe in training, education, and systems. Knowledge is power, and the more our team learns, the further we can all go together. My education at the Culinary Institute of America shaped me and really taught me that learning and growing is a lifelong discipline. It is something I really try to show and share with our team. We have been fortunate that our team here has created a great reputation, and we attract some great young talent to our kitchens.

To show our commitment to education and excellence, we pay for the culinary education for our employees. Carver Career and Technical Center is right here in our home city of Charleston. Community and technical colleges are a great place to start a career in food and hospitality. We love Carver and are grateful to have it in our community and even more grateful for the young people who want to learn, grow, and build a career in this industry.

This year's students who are learning in our kitchen and in the classrooms of Carver are a huge part of our team, and we know they will be a big part of our hospitality community for years to come.
