What does it take to feed 40,000 hungry baseball fans? Food & Wine recently went behind the scenes at Truist Park, home of the Atlanta Braves, for an inside look at how Delaware North delivers a standout food and beverage experience every gameday.
Watch the video:
The documentary – distributed through Food & Wine’s social channels that reach a combined network of more than 5 million – features interviews with Assistant General Manager Pete Smithing, Executive Chef Jaco Dreyer and Patina Group Culinary Director Franck Deletrain. It also spotlights Carlos Gaytán, a Michelin-starred chef who expanded his partnership with Patina Group this year to launch Tacos Mejor at Truist Park, and Braves Senior Vice President of Operations Hannah Basinger.
From massive prep operations to made-to-order dishes served throughout the ballpark, the feature showcases the teamwork, creativity and precision behind every bite served to Braves fans.
The documentary, which took two months of planning and four days of on-location filming, was made possible through collaboration among Delaware North’s corporate communications team, Sportservice, Patina Group and the Atlanta Braves.
