Episode Details

Sérénité’s Culinary Institute has reopened in Medina, Ohio, reviving its mission to empower recovery through cooking — now with a vibrant Southern-French fusion menu, a bustling restaurant, and a powerful community partnership. Chef Niko Courey’s inventive dishes like shrimp and grits are already drawing crowds, while Sunday brunch is set to launch in September. The reopening event featured a fundraiser and silent auction, highlighting the nonprofit’s collaboration with local economic development and recovery centers. Board president Evangelene Brown stresses that the institute is the heart of Sérénité’s work — turning hardship into growth, one plate at a time — but warns that continued funding is essential to keep this transformative mission alive.
