Gourmet Asian Fare Fund-Raiser
Chefs from Betelnut, Three Seasons, Junnoon, Poleng Lounge, Red Lantern, Straits Cafe, and other top Bay Area Asian-cuisine restaurants will be dishing up their specialities for a good cause at 7 p.m. May 8 at San Francisco’s historic Ferry Building.
“East West Eats: An Evening with the Bay Area’s Best Chefs” is a fund-raiser organized by the Asian American Journalists Association San Francisco Bay Area Chapter to raise funds for student journalism scholarships. Each year, the organization doles out about $15,000 in scholarships to high school and college students interested in pursuing a career in journalism.
Emcees for the event will be ABC7 anchor Alan Wang; and ABC7 “View From the Bay” host Janelle Wang. Tickets are $85 for AAJA members; $100 for non-members. After today’s early-bird discount expires, prices go up to $100 for members and $115 for non-members. Tickets can be purchased, by clicking here.
awww, wish I had been paying attention to get the cheaper price. This sounds great, is this a first annual event?
Nope, the event has been held before, and in the same location, too. It’s been the organization’s big annual fund-raiser for at least a year or two.
