The Culinary Encourager

Start with dessert first at Silver Bay of Simpsonville in Simpsonville, S.C. Trust me.

Tonight, in the middle of one of the busiest weekends of the year, a wreck nearby caused a sudden power outage right in the middle of our Mother’s Day weekend dinner service.

Our team did everything we could to continue taking care of our guests — even serving tables in the dark. We are incredibly thankful for the patience, kindness, and understanding shown by everyone who was with us tonight.

Moments like this are a reminder that small businesses can be deeply affected by unexpected situations completely outside of our control. Lost product, interrupted service, and missed business on a holiday weekend can have a real impact.

If you’ve ever enjoyed a meal with us, celebrated with family here, or supported our team in any way, we would truly appreciate your continued support in the coming weeks. Every visit, every share, and every recommendation means more than you know.

Thank you again to our amazing staff who pushed through under difficult circumstances, and to our loyal guests who stood by us tonight. We love this community and are grateful to serve you. ❤️
