First Round Begins January 22!
Join proud sponsor and host, Rocky Top Catering, for this series of cooking competitions back again for another great year! All events will take place at the newly renovated 1705 East in Raleigh.
Delectable dining for a great cause — this unique philanthropic event features eight of the region’s premier chefs bringing their BEST to compete in the kitchen, with the ultimate winner driving away in a beautifully restored 1949 pickup truck! Chefs will prepare three courses each using at least two secret ingredients. Guests and chef judges will be in the driver’s seat, voting to decide who moves to the next round.

Each night you’ll enjoy SIX delicious courses and the opportunity to vote for your favorites PLUS bid on one-of-a-kind packages offered by the competing chefs! There will be a cash bar featuring local craft beers, craft cocktails and delicious wines, with all proceeds going back to the Lucy Daniels Center.
