Why benefit World Central Kitchen? 

When the COVID-19 pandemic began in New York City, Mike, Grandma's Kitchen's cook, was managing a Food Pantry. While many Food Pantries in the city closed down during the pandemic, his remained open despite concerns for their own staff's safety as the virus was not yet understood at all. Mike journeyed into Manhattan each day wearing a hazmat suit and a scarf wrapped around his face, hoping for the best.

It was during this time that we became aware of the work of World Central Kitchen. They quickly began providing hot meals to the Food Pantry that were able to be distributed to the community.

Grandma's Kitchen did a fundraiser for World Central Kitchen and another organization in March 2022, soon after the war in Ukraine began. After that fundraiser and with the support of our community, we were able to donate $1770!

This dinner will feature a Five Course Dinner based on recipes from The World Central Kitchen Cookbook: Feeding Humanity, Feeding Hope by Chef José Andrés and World Central Kitchen.
