Wayne and I attended the Vero Beach Top Chef Qualifying event last night.  Now this is something I could really get into.  The best way to describe it would be to compare it to a Bite of Seattle, or any other event centered around food tasting or small bites.   Restaurants and country clubs offered samples of their signature dishes. I  think there were 14 last night.  After sampling each chef's offering we voted. 



It was Incredible food and a delightful evening.  The top four chefs from last night's event advance to the final cook-off on February 28.  I'll be there again, as an honorary judge.  Both these annual events benefit the Homeless Family Center in Vero Beach, one of my favorite charities..
