Chefs to the Rescue

POSTPONED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

RUE SAINT-MARC
APRIL 26, 2020

Tickets and Sponsorships

Every year in the United States, 40% of our edible food ends up in landfills while one in six Americans is food insecure. To fund our efforts to resolve this paradox while highlighting these statistics, Waste Not Want Not has introduced CHEFS TO THE RESCUE.  

CHEFS TO THE RESCUE is a mission-based concept that challenges local chefs to work with rescued ingredients to transform them into gourmet dishes.  Scott Alters, Executive Chef of Rue Saint-Marc, has accepted Waste Not Want Not’s challenge.   

Well-known for his skillfully crafted food, Chef Alters will prepare a multi-course menu for 100 guests on April 26, 2020 at Rue Saint-Marc.  The seated dinner will contain an element of suspense as Chef Alters reveals the rescued ingredients he was given and the gourmet delights he has prepared.  With special thanks to our Dinner Sponsors, all the proceeds from the evening will be used to further Waste Not Want Not’s mission.
