Get down and dirty for a good cause
Radio station MyTalk107.1 is hosting their fifth annual charity event to combat hunger and food insecurity. Some of the station’s hosts have been paired with local chefs Jack Riebel, Todd MacDonald, Sameh Wadi and Zoe Francois and will prepare and serve a full four-course dinner at The Freehouse in the North Loop (NoLo, to those in the know.) Shows have been airing live from the Freehouse since Wednesday. The Weekly Dish, hosted by Stephanie March and Stephanie Hansen will air live from Freehouse at 5 p.m. Friday, followed by two seatings of the dinner, at 6 p.m. and 8 p.m, and what promises to be a rousing after party.
Fans can donate to each of the charities supported by this event here.

Kitchen in the Market is hosting a food fight, albeit a high class one, disguised as a cooking class. Landon Schoenefeld and Jack Riebel will battle it out with the help of participants, cooking two dishes each as a part of this unique class/competition judged by Stephanie March. Cost includes a champagne cocktail, appetizers, full dinner, wine, beer and, of course, serious bragging rights.
