Chef Works is proud to announce that we are sponsoring the chef jackets and kids chef apparel for the 2013 Palm Beach Food & Wine Festival. The festival, already considered a distinguished, staple event on Palm Beach’s annual social roster, will take place throughout Palm Beach County, December 13-17, 2013. Net proceeds from Palm Beach Food & Wine Festival 2013 will benefit multiple charitable organizations. Chef Works is providing over 50+ Chef Jackets for the volunteering chefs, English Chef’s Aprons, plus our Kids Coats and our Kids Aprons for the two Kids Kitchen events lead by celebrity chefs.

The Two Kids Kitchens will have chefs Robert Irvine and Christina Tosi each lead a 90-minute cooking demonstration and class. Each child will have his or her own station; one parent may accompany. With the rising urgency to teach children early about proper nutrition and food preparation this event is the first of its kind in a setting typically stereotyped for adults only.

With a full line up for the whole weekend, the 2013 Palm Beach Food & Wine Festival is going to be the place to be this coming weekend. Events and special guests such as:

• Robert Irvine, Elizabeth Falkner, Jeff Mauro, Dean Max, Darryl Moiles and Marc Murphy are on-hand for the afternoon pool party Chillin’ N’ Grillin’ at Four Seasons Resort Palm Beach, with host Ted Allen. Save room for pastry chef Johnny Iuzzini’s grilled dessert.

• Sultry, southern fare comes to The Breakers Palm Beach with An Evening in the Garden of Good and Evil, hosted by Marc Summers and the resort’s Executive Chef of Banquets Jeff Simms and Master Sommelier Virginia Philip.

• After a lavish lineup of festivities, spend a lazy and delicious, al fresco afternoon of recovery with Lindsay Autry, Timon Balloo, Michael Ferraro, Darryl Moiles, Marc Murphy, Clayton Miller, James and Julie Petrakis, Daniel Serfer, Stephen Stryjewski and Marc Vetri. The chefs are creating a true, farm-to-table afternoon during Southern Comfort: A Hair of the Dog Experience at Swank Specialty Produce, a hydro-natural farm in Loxahatchee. Vetri’s band, with Grammy Award-winner Phil Roy, Sounds Good- Tastes Good will also be performing.

• Chef Mike Lata knows the true meaning of fresh seafood. Inspired by his South Carolina restaurant, The Ordinary, Lata brings Sustain by The Ordinary —a pop-up concept—to life, with the help of PB Catch’s Aaron Black.

• Powerhouse chefs Todd English and David Burke, along with pastry chef Joanne Chang, join chef/owner Clay Conley for The Last Supper at buccan, the final evening event before the Grand Tasting.

• The festival concludes with the 7th Annual Grand Tasting at 150 WORTH. This food fiesta highlights nearly 100 chefs, restaurants, mixologists, sommeliers, vendors, vintners and more, culminating with the Grand Chef Throwdown competition featuring last year’s winner Eric Grutka.
