This year, the chefs include a local business owner, a sales representative, an employee of the United States Postal Service and a director at Denver Health. Theyre from all walks of life, careers and industries, notes Sayer. And although none of them work in professional kitchens, theyll each prepare a favorite dish for approximately thirty people which means that if youre after cornbread or catfish, both of which were popular plates at last years fundraiser, youll want to get there promptly at 6 p.m., when the doors open. A lot of the food is great Southern comfort food, and it goes fast, warns Sayer.
The event is at the Crowne Plaza at 15540 East 40th Avenue in Aurora. Tickets, which include food samplings and a concert by Colorado R&B great Sammy Mayfield, are $65 per person; you can buy yours at 303-343-9389.
