Each chef has his or her own table for 12 with the responsibility of providing linens, flowers, theme-related objects or any other items to make each table unique. The setting also includes a cooking station so that all food preparation can be done right in front of the gala’s guests who enjoy at least five courses with accompanying wines. This allows all guests to interact with the chef and with one another while learning some tips from the experts.
