All-inclusive hospitality venue set to welcome double the number of Atlanta chefs on site, August 21-25

ATLANTA, GA – After a successful inaugural year, the TOUR Championship, in partnership with East Lake Golf Club, announced today that it will elevate an already robust line-up of celebrated Atlanta chefs who will prepare exclusive culinary fare in the all-inclusive 1904 Club. From August 21-25, the historic East Lake Clubhouse will be transformed into a members-only hospitality venue offering premier services and amenities. Due to overwhelming demand and increased popularity, members will have access to even more dining options curated by double the number of chefs!

New this year, members can enjoy an all-inclusive dining experience prepared by East Lake Golf Club and 12 of Atlanta’s renowned chefs in both Kiltie’s and The Boathouse Pub. All 2018 participants are set to return with Chris Hall from Local Three Kitchen & Bar and Warhorse; Nan Niyomkul of Nan Thai Fine Dining; DeeDee Niyomkul from Tuk Tuk Thai Food Loft and Chai Yo Modern Thai; Kevin Rathbun of Kevin Rathbun Steak, Rathbun’s, Krog Bar and KR SteakBar; Kevin Gillespie with Gunshow, Revival, Communion and Gamechanger; and Philippe Haddad from Cape Dutch slated to prepare curated dishes for members.

New for 2019, Matthew Ridgeway of Cooks & Soldiers and The Iberian Pig; Gerry Klaskala from Aria; Matthew Basford with Canoe; Andre Gomez of Porch Light Latin Kitchen; Linton Hopkins from Restaurant Eugene, Holeman and Finch Public House, C. Ellets Steakhouse, Hop’s Chicken and H&F Burger; and Brian Horn from JCT Kitchen & Bar will serve up delicious dishes throughout the week.

"I am honored to have the opportunity to partner with East Lake and the PGA TOUR to share Cooks & Soldiers tapas and dishes with the members of the 1904 Club,” said Chef Matthew Ridgeway. “I can’t think of a better way to kick off the week of festivities and I promise to deliver a high-quality culinary adventure to the patrons enjoying this elevated experience."

Members will also have access to private seating on the Clubhouse lawn with drink service adjacent to the tournament practice green, featuring stunning views of the famous par-3, island green 15th hole, as well as additional on-course viewing areas.

From delicious dining options crafted by even more celebrated Atlanta chefs to additional viewing areas providing exclusive access to watch the top 30 golfers vie for the FedExCup, the 1904 Club is set to offer the premier fan experience.

The 1904 Club is limited to 500 memberships annually, and the tournament is expecting an imminent sell out for the 2019 event with plans to transition into a first right of refusal for future years.
