On Tuesday, June 14, DNV Rooftop will host the summer installment of “Chefs Behind Bars,” the popular cocktail competition featuring six of Washington, DC’s most acclaimed chefs. All proceeds from ticket sales will benefit Share our Strength’s No Kid Hungry campaign, which works to end childhood hunger in America.

Guests are invited atop one of DC’s hottest rooftop bars for an unlikely chef showdown for best cocktail. Each chef will be paired with a liquor sponsor to create one signature drink, which they will serve to the crowd and a panel of notable industry experts throughout the evening. A “people’s choice” award will be presented based on cash tips from the general public, while a “judges’ choice” award will be based on ratings from the judging panel.

In addition to cocktail sips, DNV Rooftop will provide tastes from their Japanese street food-inspired menu.

The confirmed line-up includes Chef Yo Matsuzaki (Zentan, DNV Rooftop), Chef Jonathan Dearden (Radiator), Chef Matt Adler (Osteria Morini), Chef Ryan Hackney (Macon Bistro and Larder), and Chef Seng Luangrath (Thip Khao).

“This event brings together six great restaurants in the District, their talented chefs, and host DNV Rooftop for a fantastic evening in support of No Kid Hungry. Chefs Behind Bars will raise critical funds and help us fulfill our mission of ensuring kids get the healthy food they need every day,” said Billy Shore, founder and CEO of Share Our Strength.

“I’m thrilled to host ‘Chefs Behind Bars’ on our rooftop this summer,” said Chef Yo Matsuzaki. “The friendly competition among local DC chefs is a fun way to fundraise and bring awareness to No Kid Hungry’s great work in the community.”

In the event of rain, “Chefs Behind Bars” will be rescheduled for the following Tuesday, June 21.
