Eighth GAYOT.com Dinner Series | Anaheim White House, Anaheim, CA
April, 2012
Chef/owner Bruno Serato of the Anaheim White House restaurant and I are joining forces for the next event in the GAYOT Dinner Series on April 26th to benefit Caterina’s Club.
Caterina’s Club is a non-profit organization, founded by Bruno Serato in 2005, that focuses on feeding the youth of America. Serato’s mission has expanded to feeding nearly 300 kids, 7 nights a week, 365 days a year. More than a quarter of a million meals have been served to date in Orange County. His dedication earned Serato the honor of being named one of the CNN Heroes 2011. Each year only ten people, selected from more than 4,000 candidates, are awarded this prestigious recognition.
The evening will start at 7 p.m. with a cocktail reception in the garden, followed by an elegant sit-down dinner at 8 p.m. During the cocktail hour, chefs will do cooking demonstrations with some of Bruno’s child protégés. During dinner, the eighth in the GAYOT Dinner Series, the chefs and I will sit with the guests.
Serato and his team will prepare and serve a five-course meal for $250, which includes complimentary drinks during cocktail hour plus Champagne with dinner. ALL ticket purchases go straight to the charity, which will use the funds to house and feed needy kids. I am happy to donate my time for Serato and Caterina’s Club, and hope you will do the same.
