S C E N E S O F T H E S O U T H : S AVA N N A H S P E A K E A S Y Speakeasy It took a little bit of flapper fringe, a zoot suit, and fedora to be ready for the Secret Savannah Speakeasy! Patrons came ready to meet the tastemakers of Savannah. With small-plate tastings and libations, there was hand-crafted cocktails, craft brews, and a wide array of music and entertainment, just so we could all reminice about Savannah’s Prohibition heyday. This event took place in a “secret” location in the Historic Georgia State Railroad Museum. The finalists for the Bartenders Challenge all showcased their signature drink for y’all to vote on. Savannah Riverboat The Celebrity Chef Riverboat Cruise Lunch & Sip with Jernard Wells, known as the Chef of Love, was presented by the Tanger Outlets Savannah and sponsored by Barritt’s Ginger Beer.
