Lewiston’s – A Chefs’ Affaire
A Chefs’ Affaire is The Idaho Foodbank North Central’s only event, and an opportunity to share our mission with 200 very important guests. This year’s event will be on LC State College Campus working with the Hospitality and Culinary Arts Professors/LCSC Staff. Our aim is to collaborate with students, local supporters and vendors to create an event showcasing their hard work and to support the Idaho Foodbanks mission. The goal is to raise $110,000 to support The Idaho Foodbank’s programs and services directed at the 1 in 7 Idahoans in North Central who struggle with hunger. With the collaboration of premier Chefs, local producers and vintners, this amazing event is made possible with your support.
This year, 3 Chefs’ will prepare and serve appetizers to the guests as they mingle and sip wine. The event will kick off with the Black Box Challenge: Chefs Blaine and Chef Aaron will compete with the same surprise ingredients for a Amuse-Bouche. The guests will try both and pick a winner. An announcement of the winner will happen at the end of the evening and crowned. The following courses will be prepared by Chef Magen and Chef Rodney with students of the Culinary Arts Program of LC State. The Skalicky’s Bakery will prepare a dessert for everyone to enjoy and savor.
