Hey Everyone! I'm Thomas Smith IV, a 31-year-old entrepreneur from Louisville, KY, also known as Derby City. My family has always been big on starting businesses, and I've been around it since I was a kid.
I started learning how to cook when I was just 7 years old, hanging out in the kitchen with my grandma and mom. At 15, I got into selling food at parks, which really got me interested in cooking. Over the past 15 years, I've gone from working at Sonic drive-ins to leading multi-million dollar restaurants, focusing on solving problems and making customers happy.
I have picked up a lot from my grandma Norma, my mom, Lisa, and my dad, Thomas III. They've taught me a ton about cooking. Now, as the owner of The Velvet Plate restaurant, I'm excited to welcome everyone to come try our delicious Southern food and experience some real Southern Elegance!
The Velvet Plate is open from 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM CST from Monday thru Thursday, and from 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM. Closed Friday, Saturday, Sunday for Weddings & Private Events.
