(Oahu)– Join Hawaii’s Great Chefs® for their 10th year at the Hawaii Foodbank’s signature culinary event to help feed Oahu residents in need. The Hawaii Foodbank warehouse in Mapunapuna, distributing over 50,000 pounds of food a day, will be transformed into a Foodie’s Fantasy to raise funds for the Foodbank mission of feeding the hungry.
Guests will taste savory and sweet samples from some of Hawaii’s most talented culinary artists, complemented by a selection of fine wine, craft beers, and local spirits tastings. Bid on exciting prizes in our Silent Auction. Try your key in the Cellar Door to win a collection of wine selected by Fujioka’s Wine Times, JMD Beverages, Southern Wine & Spirits, and Young’s Market Company of Hawaii. Enjoy live music throughout the evening by local entertainers including multi-instrumental melodies from JazzyJay, Hawaiian music from the Osorio ‘Ohana, rock and roll from WREKT, indie alternative tunes from The Fresh Preps and gorgeous ballads from Tahiti Rey on two stages. All proceeds raised by the Great Chefs® will help feed 1 in 5 residents in need this year, including over 32,387 keiki and over 33,000 kupuna on Oahu.
