Announcments

Based of her work as a OFL Chef at City Harvest, Raquel was asked to be a part of the lunch of Chefs Move to Schools a part Mrs. Obama's Let's Move campaign. The campaign's mission is to stop childhood obesity by 2015. In this case chefs will work closely with parents, teachers, school nutrition professionals and others to help educate children about food and nutrition. On June 4th Raquel and hundreds of other chefs nationwide had the honor of going to the White House lawn, touring the garden and being among fellow chefs and celebrity chefs alike. Among those attending this "historic day of food", as described by White House Chef Sam Kass, were Anne Burrell, Marcus Samuelsson, Aaron McCargo, Daniel Bould, Carla Hall, Tom Colicchio, Michael Laiskonis, Cat Cora, Lydia Bastianich, Art Smith and of course first lady Mrs. Michelle Obama. The event was a huge success and very inspirational! Keep track of Raquel's journey of Chef's Move to Schools on her blog This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
