Kentucky’s cuisine storyteller

Up Home with Ouita Michel, a video series that launched in April as part of the new Holly Hill lifestyle brand, shines a spotlight on the meaning behind food and how it builds community and shapes relationships. 

In 2001, Michel and husband, Chris, opened Holly Hill Inn in Midway, followed by seven other restaurants in central Kentucky. 

“Our story goes deeper than what’s on your plate. It’s woven by the people, places and ingredients behind every dish,” says Michel. “And when we celebrate these things, a new food culture is born—paving the way for generations to come.”
