The chefs will be paired with individuals from PARC who have received culinary training to collaborate on entrées. Signature drinks and decadent desserts will also be provided throughout the night, and guests will get the opportunity to place their vote for categories like Fan Favorite, Best All Around, Best Flavor, Best Presentation and more.
The ooey gooey cakes that The Dessert Spot crafts are mind blowing and we cannot wait to pair up their treats with a hot cup of Kahwa coffee. Better yet, cool down with a fruity ice pop from The Hyppo and sink your teeth into the golden avocado treats from The Library.
