Southern Belle invites guests to explore the diversity of Atlanta’s culinary talent in the next installation of its monthly “Bless Their Hearts” guest chefs dinner series on Sunday, Oct. 31.

“When we launched this dinner series in September, the response exceeded our wildest expectations, and the first dinner sold out within two hours,” says Ward. “We are excited to get together again with colleagues of similar mindsets and who represent the new face of Southern cuisine to celebrate Halloween.”

Each dinner features five courses plus an amuse-bouche for $135 per guest (excluding tax and gratuity), and each chef is responsible for preparing one course. Ten percent of total sales from the evening will be donated to No Kid Hungry to help end childhood hunger in the United States.

Wine pairings from sommelier Cate Hatch will be available for an additional $70. Non-alcoholic pairings also are available as well as the restaurant’s full cocktail and beverage list.

The dinner is limited to 50 guests with seatings between 4:30-8:30 p.m. Reservations can be made online through Resy starting Oct. 1. To ensure guest safety, the entire Southern Belle staff is vaccinated and following all CDC guidelines.

• Chef Parnass Savang of Talat Market

• Chef Asha Gomez of Third Space and author of “My Two Souths” and “I Cook in Color”
