Participants include Honorary Co-Chair and local legend Wolfgang Puck, the stylish Colin Cowie, Bon Appetit's Test Kitchen guru Cat Cora, and the ubiquitous Border Girls Mary Sue Milliken and Susan Feniger, and the magazine Editor Barbara Fairchild. A portion of the proceeds will benefit Chefs for Humanity.
