Designed with the hotel chef in mind, Mise is intended to inspire, educate and create definitive action. Our action-packed agenda will focus on food, operations and marketing--all intended to drive your personal and professional development and drive bottom line profits for your company. There will be ample time for networking with other chefs and our Sponsor partners, to select a curriculum that suits your personal needs and to explore Atlanta on your own as a culinary mecca. ​​​​​​​

The 2022 Agenda is in development and we welcome inputs from you on the kind of content you'd like to see!

​

Here's a bit of what we've got working...

​​Meeting Planner’s Panel: Winning the Meeting

From a select panel of meeting and event planners, we'll hear what today’s meeting and event clients want most from venues, and how hotel F&B operations can rise to the top. How to make the right first impression, and how chef’s can be a property sales team’s secret weapon to secure M&E business. 

 
Brandon Smith:

Mise regular Brandon Smith, the Workplace Therapist, returns to teach us about moving from survival mode to a culture of thrive. Building vibrant teams that can take on multiple roles and with more autonomy will not only help you today, but will be your best recruiting and training tool for the future. 

 
FSR Panel: 

FSR Magazine Editor-In-Chief Nicole Duncan debuts at Mise to dive into the Modern Hotel Restaurant; what do the best restaurants at hotels look like, and what makes them tick? With a diverse panel from different parts of the country and different types of properties, you’ll take away insights to inform your next menu change, new concept or buildout. 

 
Breakouts:

• A cuisine deep dive into Turkish and middle-eastern cuisine, with a tasting, from one of the leading experts in the country. Learn the authentic dishes that are ripe for interpretation on American menus. (Haven’t agreed to terms yet, so we can’t name names)

• What happens in the kitchen…belongs on IG! Mise fan favorite Leigh Loftus returns with a focus on turning what you and your teams do every day into a regular stream of content that can boost your personal profile, gain interest from potential hires, and win F&B business for your property. This session will combine photo technique with social media marketing savvy. 
  

•  Meet Gin’s New Wave: Spirits in Motion’s Tony Pereyra shows us what’s shaking with the booming category of gin. So much more than the juniper-driven spirits of yesteryear, there are some amazing new entrants in the category from women- and minority-owned producers that are redefining what gin can be. This interactive tasting session will inspire you to new creations for the bar, and the food menu, too.
