TNG INCUBATOR

The cornerstone of CERES Chatt Hills is the TNG Incubator—a living laboratory for culinary talent and the spark behind our mission to shape Chattahoochee Hills into a thriving gourmet cluster and destination for food lovers.

Through the Incubator, talented chefs are transformed into enduring entrepreneurs. Graduates are supported in launching their own concepts within ten miles of CERES, creating a powerful ripple effect of opportunity for artisans, purveyors, craftspeople, and farmers who bring the ecosystem to life.

  • OPERATES LIKE A RESTAURANT

    A fully equipped, professionally staffed venue featuring three to four independent, chef-driven food concepts at a time—ranging from fast-casual to fine dining—delivering real-world service, guests, pressure, and performance every day.

  • EDUCATES & TRAINS LIKE A SCHOOL

    Expert coaches, business trainers, and industry mentors guide each participant through operations, leadership, finance, and brand-building—preparing chefs not just to cook beautifully, but to lead enduring, successful hospitality businesses.

  • ROTATES CONCEPTS LIKE A POP-UP

    To keep the experience fresh and dynamic, both culinary talent and restaurant concepts rotate every 18 to 24 months—ensuring a constantly evolving dining landscape while giving chefs a defined runway to test, refine, and launch.Description goes here

  • ENHANCES THE INDUSTRY

    Programs extend beyond chefs to support hospitality staff in building meaningful careers and to empower farmers and purveyors to form lasting, profitable partnerships with chef and restaurateurs, strengthening the entire local food ecosystem.
