Help us ensure no kid in America grows up hungry!
In 2010 we plan to top last year’s successful event. On Thursday, April 23, 2009 Taste of the Nation San Francisco attendees enjoyed a sense-sational event featuring the finest food, worldly wines, scintillating spirits, live entertainment, and an incredible silent and live auction. The VIP dinner offered guests the chance to meet participating chefs first, savor their dishes, and bid in the fabulous silent auction.
Taste of the Nation San Francisco 2009’s Gala Dinner included an all-star line up of local and national culinary talent! Chefs included: Michael Symon (Cleveland’s Lola/Lolita), San Francisco’s own Traci Des Jardins (Acme Chophouse/Jardiniere/Mijita), Chris Cosentino (Incanto), Gavin Kaysen (NYC’s Cafe Boulud), and Koren Grieveson (Chicago’s Avec).
Taste of the Nation veteran Chef Elizabeth Falkner provided the dessert course and Host Chef Thom Fox graciously opened his Acme Chophouse kitchen again for attendees.
