Taste of Hope: A Chefs Competition.
Taste of Hope: A Chefs Competition is a fundraising event hosted by the American Cancer Society, featuring samplings from some of West Michigan’s Top Chefs.
Now in its second year, the event is hosted by the American Cancer Society’s Taste of Hope Executive Leadership Committee and raised over $238,000 in its inaugural year to support the American Cancer Society’s mission and goal of eliminating cancer as a major health problem.
This year’s group of competing chefs promises to deliver a wide array of dishes, providing a true culinary experience to all guests. You will be able to taste, sample, and vote for your favorite dishes. And in the end, guests will witness a chef being crowned TOP CHEF of the year.
