In the midst of our 15 year anniversary, the Chefs Gala still proves to be one of our most exciting and successful events.  Even though Mother Nature stood her ground making travel a bit difficult, it didn’t dampen the excitement and glamour of the event.

As we expand our presence outside of Bergen County, for the first time at Pleasantdale Chateau, we welcomed many new attendees.   The kitchen was filled with the area’s most talented chefs and guests indulged in Italian cuisine that was truly second to none.  To all we say, “Bravo.”

Our celebrity Guest of Honor, Mario Batali, eloquently expressed his commitment to Table to Table and the promise we have made to feed hungry people in this community.   Along with Table to Table board member David Burke, Mario is truly an inspiration to the culinary world and we are so grateful for his support of our work.

Along with extraordinary auction items, fabulous food and wine, and the exceptional ambiance of Pleasantdale Chateau, everyone in attendance contributed to a solution that improves our community and our country.  Through the generosity of our supporters and guests, we are able to deliver nutritious food to more of the neighborhoods that surround us.  It’s the most basic of all human needs and our services could not have such an enormous impact without it.

So as we close the door to a wonderful evening, we open the next with our better than ever annual BBQ event!  Thanks to all who attended the gala and we look forward to seeing you on May 22nd!  Click here now for tickets!
