Benefits Galore this Weekend
Brother/Sister, can you spare a dime (or $200)? Two benefits this weekend may catch your eye: firstly, Meals on Wheels' Celebrity Chef Ball this Friday (Macy's on State, 8pm, tickets start at $125) brings chefs like Paul Virant and Stephanie Izard together to cook in the name of helping others eat consistently and well; a DJ-styled evening of cocktails and dancing, as well as a silent auction, follow.
On Sunday, Paul Kahan and Blackbird will host chefs from several restaurants (Town House of Chilhowie, VA; Red Medicine of Beverly Hills; and McCrady's and Husk of Charleston, SC) for a benefit dinner event for the James Beard Foundation at Blackbird at 5pm. Admission $175 for JBF members, $200 for everyone else.
