Peter Pierce
General Manager


If there was ever a man destined to manage a bustling restaurant, it’s Peter. This Vermont native was born into a family of 11 who were farmers. If they didn’t raise it or grow it, they didn’t eat it! This upbringing taught Peter at an early age to appreciate good food. While working his way through high school at a local Bed & Breakfast, Peter decided to attend culinary school at Johnson & Wales, Providence, Rhode Island.

After graduating, Peter spent summers as a sous chef at Booth Bay Harbor Yacht Club in Maine and winters at Yeaman’s Hall Country Club near Charleston, SC as assistant club manager. When both properties wanted to promote Peter to managerial positions and full time opportunities, he had to choose and the warmer climate in South Carolina won out.

That’s when he started cultivating relationships with local organic farmers and green grocers – the people he and Executive Chef Frank Lee now rely on for the picked-today flavors that go into everything on the menu.

Peter joined Maverick Southern Kitchens in our restaurant High Cotton in 2000, and was promoted in 2003 to the position of Restaurant Manager at Slightly North of Broad, located just across the street.
