Sustainability
Sinfully scrumptious and sustainable? Absolutely.
Consider the midwinter strawberry. Served out of season (and flown thousands of miles as a result), it bears scant resemblance to the rich, decadent strawberry served in warm weather months.
All this underscores why our team strongly believes in fresh, local ingredients served in season. If it can be driven to Atlanta in one day, we consider that local. It’s just more efficient, cost-effective and green—not to mention wickedly delicions—without the need for your food to rack up frequent-flyer miles.
So at A Divine Event, anything currently in season is sourced locally from regional farms and ranches. In 2011, all of our menus will be seasonal—and as a result, largely local. Already we’re implementing an entirely U.S. made menu of artisanal cheeses, every bit the equal of those flown across the Atlantic Ocean.
As food culture continues to move from the “3,000-mile Caesar salad” to more sustainable, farm-to-table options, we’re helping lead the charge. Some of our local suppliers include Sweetgrass Dairy, Belle Chevre Creamery and Springer Mountain Farms.

Signature Dish
Bing Cherry Soup
While we mostly focus on sourcing foods from our region, some things are just too good to pass up! This sweet little gem hails from the Pacific Northwest and has a very short growing season. That season falls during the sweltering Southern Summers and these little soup sips are sweet and refreshing! Topped with crème fraiché and a fresh Bing Cherry, they're a perfect addition to any summer soiree! Check out menus
