Helen Mitternight is a former AP reporter and current freelancer living in downtown Charleston. She grew up eating food prepared by a country Southern grandma on her dad’s side and a Sicilian grandmother on her mother’s, and her best memories involve food. Helen’s byline has been in Charleston's Post and Courier, Local Palate, Edible Charleston, and HealthLinks Magazine, among others. She has two monthly columns for Skirt Charleston -- one on food and one on nonprofits. She’s a blogger: her lifestyle blog is, "Stilettos Not Required," and she’s the relationship/sex blogger for Charleston Magazine's Grit, "What's Love Got to Do With It?". And she’s a podcaster. Her 30-minute weekly interview podcast for over-50s is called "Keep it Juicy!" and her love of food has led her to start a column and a podcast called, "Hidden F&B," celebrating the hidden heroes in the food and beverage scene.

Operations Manager, Ms. Rose’s Fine Food + Cocktails. It takes humble persistence and an inspired stomach to go from a rural town outside of Cincinnati, Ohio, to an executive chef in culinary hotspot Charleston, S.C. But that’s the story of Amanee Neirouz.  She came to Charleston in 2005 and was a butcher at the Sanctuary on Kiawah Island before starting at Relish Restaurant group as a part-time pastry chef in 2008. In the near decade that she has been with the group, she has worked her way up the ranks to serve as both an Executive Chef and Executive Pastry Chef for the restaurant group. In her current role for Ms. Rose’s Fine Food and Cocktails, Amanee serves as Operations Manager and oversees catering functions, manages teams, streamlines operations and handles administrative duties. Some of Amanee’s most prized professional moments include traveling to Cortimellia, Italy, to represent America in the 2014 International Hazelnut Festival and having her smoked chocolate parfait named “Best Frozen  Dessert” by Food Network Magazine in 2013. She also participates in many charity events, including Chef's Feast, Feed the Need, Chocolate Affair, etc.
