Inside the 1st Annual HMSHost Foundation Chef’sTable

It was every foodies’ fantasy when celebrity chefs came to town to prepare tableside signature four-course meals exclusively for guests and donors at HMSHost Foundation’s 1st annual Chef’s Table.

Each chef cooked and entertained about 150 people while guests enjoyed a live musical performance by Tony Award-nominated performer Denée Benton, with proceeds from the exclusive event benefiting HMSHost Foundation in its mission to fight poverty with food, shelter, education and workforce development.

The evening’s top celebrity chefs came from all over North America, including favorites chefs like Scott Drewno of CHICKO, George Pagonis of Kapnos, Lorena Garcia, and more.

Held at the popular Dock 5 at Union Market, guests enjoyed interacting with the
chefs and they prepared meals live at their tables… and the inevitable delicious food and drink that came as a result.

“We are extremely proud to host this inaugural event right in our backyard, bringing so many business and culinary leaders into one room to support our fight against poverty,” said HMSHost President & CEO Steve Johnson, with plans for the 2nd annual event to be just as — or even more — satisfying.
