The 2005 Chimney Park Bistro/Chef2Chef Culinary Extravaganza Nets $9,000 for Culinary Student Grants

On Tuesday, August 9, 2005, Chefs from all over North America, including The Yukon Territory, New Jersey, North Carolina, California, Toronto, Colorado, Michigan, Wyoming and Oregon converged on the town of Windsor, Colorado  and The Chimney Park Bistro for a fund raiser. 100% of the proceeds from this fund raiser will go into the Chef2Chef Culinary Grant Program which is handled by the Yampa Valley Community Foundation and non-profit organization.

Chef Florian Wehrli, Sarah McGregor and the entire staff at the Chimney Park Bistro were most gracious hosts to a sold out crowd for a dinner and wine pairing for $100 a plate and a silent auction that featured donated items from Chef2Chef Forum members, Chefs, C2C Advertisers, Chimney Park Bistro Purveyors and local businesses.

On behalf of the team at Chef2Chef.net and the staff and owners of the Chimney Park Bistro, I would also like to thank the participating chefs who traveled to the event on their own time and money to create the most wonderful food that helped ensure the success of the evening.

The next Culinary Extravaganza and Fund Raiser will be in Standardsville, VA. at The Lafayette Inn on November 14th, 2005..stay tuned

The news you have been waiting for is finally here! The Chef2Chef.net "Share A Recipe Cookbook" is now available for purchase.

A few months back, Jean Denham, CC suggested that a book of our Forum members favorite recipes could and should be compiled and made available to our members, with ALL the profits going to the Chef2Chef.net Culinary Grant Fund project. Who wouldn't want to participate?

She tirelessly took the "Bull by the Horns" and collected all the recipes from our participating members and has compiled them in a spiral bound book that contains 82 entrees, 10 side dishes, 23 desserts and 8 'extras' (didn't fit anywhere, but needed!) So, one hundred twenty-six recipes that anyone would kill for. These recipes are all Chef2Chef.net Forum Member family treasures and are tried and true.
