Sérénité is a non-profit organization partnered with the Recovery Center of Medina County. They provide culinary training to students who are recovering from drug or alcohol addiction. Over the course of an eight-month training program, students are paid to attend and have full access to all of RCMC’s programming, case management, and support systems. Sérénité helps to change the face of recovery by providing essential on-the-job training for students and generates revenue to support the recovery center, supplementing the cost of education.


Sérénité’s specialty is traditional French cuisine and guests can always expect to enjoy classic, French dishes. In addition to French staples, Chef Todd’s dedication to culinary innovation keeps the menu fresh and ever-changing!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
