"The crème de la crème of foodie events"

Barton Seaver bested his competition in last year's Capital Food Fight, whipping up exotic dishes like Vanilla Poached Halibut and Apple Walnut Salad with Foie Gras. The sold-out event was an incredible success: great food, fast-paced action, and tremendous support of our fight against hunger. Thanks to everyone who helped make the event special!
Onstage at last year's Food Fight, Robert and Nancy Torray pledged 1 million dollars to support the programs of DC Central Kitchen. This is in addition to the million dollars they gave at the previous year's Capital Food Fight, and to the tremendous support they have given every year prior. As an investor, Bob Torray sees the benefit of investing in the vision and the people that surround the DC Central Kitchen and its mission. Thanks again to the Torrays for their deep commitment to our mission!
