“I need to take a picture of this to share on Facebook,” said Lauren Thom, owner of Fleurty Girl. “It was my favorite dessert of the whole event.”

Event organizer Nina Camacho’s involvement stems from her
industry connection as the National Events Director of Jazzmen Rice. She
quickly realized that joining the industry’s trade associations was where she
needed to be to help further the reputation and brand of her product.
“Working with all
these philanthropic chefs, restaurant owners and industry professionals to
create a special event that benefits such a wonderful cause is truly rewarding,”
said Camacho.

Le Meritage Chef Farrell’s short ribs, Grill Room Chef Dzejak’s seared loin of Nimin Ranch lamb, St. Charles Hospital Chef Guillot’s crawfish enchiladas with tasso and crawfish cream sauce and Restaurant R’evolution Chef Lusk’s blue crab pho were hits of the event. K-Paul Louisiana Kitchen Chef Paul Prudhomme was roaming around the event and provided each guest with a signed copy of Kitchen Expedition.
Proceeds from the event benefited Children’s Hospital, the
only full-service hospital in Louisiana exclusively for children.
