Seed Hospitality Group Celebrates a Decade in East Cobb
Celebrating 12 Years of Kitchen & Bar and 10 years of Stem Wine Bar

Seed Hospitality Group is thrilled to celebrate over a decade in East Cobb. Since opening its doors in 2011, Seed Kitchen & Bar has served the neighborhood a seasonal menu that reflects the ingredients and hard work of local farmers and artisans whenever possible, in combination with an uncompromising pursuit of quality, all beautifully presented. Shortly after opening Seed Kitchen & Bar, Seed Hospitality Group expanded and welcomed Stem Wine Bar to the family in 2013 as a restaurant that embodies inspirations from collective travels to the wine bars, tapas bars and restaurants of Spain, Italy, France, New York and San Francisco.

To celebrate both anniversaries, Stem Wine Bar is featuring an unforgettable wine dinner. Executive Chefs, Adam Olejniczak and Clint Houghton, have created a very special five-course menu to pair with spectacular wine selections from advanced sommelier Brian Teague to commemorate both anniversaries.

The wine dinner will take place on November 3 and 4 from 6:30 PM to 9:00 PM. To purchase tickets, visit https://rb.gy/pw6za
