Chef's at the Shore IX
Call for restaurants for expanded event; Tickets now available with discount before June 1st
Some of the area’s finest food will be showcased at the 9th Annual Chefs at the Shore, a fundraiser for two local causes—the Atlantic City Aquarium and the Professional Chefs Association of South Jersey. Chefs at the Shore will take place on Thursday, June 21, 2012 from 5:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Atlantic City Aquarium in Historic Gardner’s Basin.
Part of Professional Chefs Week, the fundraiser attracts local celebrity chefs from casino and regional restaurants. Chefs at the Shore features signature dishes from area restaurants, cooking demonstrations, live music and an open bar of premium beers and wines. Chef J.D. Austin and his band, The Kitchen, will be the featured entertainers.
Call for Restaurants
Growing since its inception in 2003, Chefs at the Shore last year attracted over 500 attendees. This year, more than 600 guests are expected. As a result, organizers are seeking additional restaurants to be part of Chefs at the Shore.
There is no fee to participate. Restaurants need to prepare one signature dish that can be served in tasting size portions to approximately 600 people. Chefs must staff their own tables. Electricity and tables are provided.
Discounted Tickets Now Available
Chefs at the Shore tickets are $50 each or $450 for a block of ten if purchased on or before June 1, 2012. After June 1, tickets will be issued at the at-the-door price of $60 per person.
Sponsorship opportunities also are available, and donations of silent auction and raffle prizes are needed. Proceeds from Chefs at the Shore are used to fund scholarships for culinary students and for educational programming at the Atlantic City Aquarium.
