Chicago’s Chef Ball Dishes up a Good Cause

No plans next Friday night? Join fellow foodies and philanthropists for the annual Meals on Wheels Celebrity Chef Ball. Not only will you be supporting the philanthropic efforts of the Meals on Wheels program – which helps feed thousands of Chicago’s homebound and elderly – you’ll also get to attend one of the biggest chef events of the season.

Guests have the option of two exciting seatings: the VIP Chef’s Table and Chef’s Tasting Party.

Pretty much every chef, baker and mixologist of note will be on hand. Diners will sample dishes from the likes of Sixteen’s Patrick Fahey, Publican’s Brian Huston, and Blackbird’s David Posey, to name a few.

The VIP Chef’s Table event begins at 6 p.m. An exclusive reception followed by an interactive dinner at the table will offer up wine with cocktail pairings over multiple courses. A live auction will also provide entertainment along with the meal.

At 8:30 p.m., the Chef’s Tasting Party will start with numerous chef tastings on offer. Wine, cocktails and beer will also be served to complement the experience. Live music and a photo booth round out a memorable night.

VIP Chef’s Table tickets are $350 and Chef’s Tasting Party tickets are $150.
