Grille 151 Partners with South Shore Food Bank; Donates Portion of Specialty Cocktail Proceeds to Organization

WEYMOUTH, ROCKLAND, MA: Grille 151 (www.grille151.com), an upscale yet comfortable American restaurant specializing in seafood, beef, and comfort foods, recently announced a new partnership with the South Shore Food Bank.

As part of this new affiliation, Grille 151 created a new strawberry mint julep cocktail, and is donating a portion of the proceeds from each cocktail served.  According to Chris DiMambro, managing partner at Grille 151, this specialty cocktail was created in part to reflect the commitment of South Shore Food Bank to increase access to fresh food, with garden-grown ingredients like strawberries and mint.

Under the leadership of Pam Denholm, executive director of the Weymouth Food Pantry, the South Shore Food Bank is part of a united community effort to bring food, dignity and hope to people throughout the South Shore.

“We’re very excited to partner with the South Shore Food Bank,” said DiMambro.  “It’s a privilege to be able to contribute to this vital resource for those struggling with food insecurity and barriers to food access.

“We are so grateful to the South Shore Food Bank for its outstanding work and hope to broaden our partnership with the organization in the future,” continued DiMambro.

“Grille 151 is a wonderful community partner; Chris and his team recognize food security needs to be a collective effort and have demonstrated a true commitment to making a positive impact,” added Denholm.  “We are very appreciative of their support.”
