About Just Call Me Chef Dinner Series

2020 marks the 100th Anniversary of Women’s Suffrage in the United States. To commemorate this significant occasion, we are hosting two dinners where we will be celebrating two different chefs who have pursued their dreams to run their own kitchen despite obstacles and challenges and have earned the right to be called chef – not female chef – just chef.
