What are Monday Meditations with Wine you ask? Monday Meditations with Wine began as a way to connect wine professionals through virtual means starting in 2020. The interview series was originated by JSU Graduate and Certified Sommelier Charles Springfield. Among his wine accolades, Charles is also an award-winning Journalist formerly of The Clarion Ledger in Jackson, MS, and the Times-Picayune Newspaper based out of New Orleans. In December 2021 Charles decided to step away from his Monday Meditations live stream to focus his attention on other avenues of his career and has passed the baton to BRAVO!’s very own Chuck Nix aka The Bearded Wineaux. Chuck joined the BRAVO! team in December 2021 as our sommelier and assistant service manager. Chuck is a Specialist of Wine with The Society of Wine Educators and a Certified Sommelier with The Court of Master Sommeliers and a southern hospitality veteran of 20 years and counting. Starting Monday, January 31st at 6 pm CST Chuck will host his first Monday Meditation with Wine. Monday Meditations with Wine will be a weekly live interview session highlighting hospitality, culinary, and beverage industry professionals from the American South. The southern gastronomic community is burgeoning and the roots run deep here. This weekly series is meant to shine a light on the enthusiastic, passionate, professionals in the south blazing trails in their respective fields. We are telling the stories of the south’s brightest in the hospitality industry. So, grab your favorite glass of wine and experience southern hospitality from your living room, office, dorm room, or wherever you please, every Monday at 6 PM CST on Facebook Live, with your host Chuck Nix aka The Bearded Wineaux. « Previous 1 … 6 7 8 9 10 … 17 Next »

He approached Jeff Good and suggested a partnership promotion where central Mississippians getting their first vaccine shot could get a treat from Jeff’s restaurants and a great suit from Kinkade’s. “We’ve all been through a lot this past year. And we have come so far as a state… but we need to do better,” states Keith Kinkade, the owner of Kinkade’s Fine Clothing. “We are pro-business, and we are pro-Mississippi. And Mississippi is made up of the best people in the world. So, we wanted to come up with a way to do our part to help increase the vaccination rate in our community.” With Mississippi vaccination rates well below the national average, Keith and Jeff came up with the idea to incentivize those choosing to get their first vaccine shot with a $10 gift card to BRAVO!, Broad Street, and Sal & Mookie’s as well as a chance to win a tailored suit from Kinkade’s! “If you got your first vaccination shot on July 23rd or thereafter, just bring your card to one of our businesses: Kinkade’s, Sal & Mookie’s in the District, BRAVO!, Broad Street or Sal & Mookie’s in Madison, and we will give you a free $10 gift card!,” Jeff Good explains. “That’s not all! One lucky person out of every 100 will receive a free tailored suit from Kinkade’s! So, the more people who get vaccinated, the more suits will be given away! More gift cards, more suits, and better vaccination rates… it’s a win/win!” The promotion starts Friday, July 23rd, and will run indefinitely. “We hope our efforts entice some folks who have not gotten around to getting their vaccine to doing so,” adds Keith Kinkade. “We just want to do our part to keep Mississippi open!” Participants will need to bring their official vaccination card, dated no earlier than July 23, 2021, for the first shot, to one of the host businesses: Kinkade’s, Sal & Mookie’s in the District, BRAVO!, Broad Street, or Sal & Mookie’s in Madison to receive their free $10 gift card. At that time, they will be able to register for the free suit drawings. A new drawing will take place with every 100 entries. Participants can only enter once and may only receive one free gift card. # # # If you would like more information about this program or to schedule an interview, please contact Brandi Stodard at 601.982.4443, ext. 17 or email at BrandiS@bravobuzz.com.
