“…underfed or overfed, people aren’t getting the nutrients and vitamins that lead to proper development.”– The Chicago Tribune, 10/01/07

The Chef Advisory Board boasts masters like Gale Gand, Paul Kahan, Nigella Lawson, Carrie Nahabedian, Jamie Oliver, and Charlie Trotter. These chefs have volunteered recipes for the children to create and guest teach in our kitchens.
