Men Who Cook Summer Sizzler

The Women’s Center (TWC) is hosting its 2nd Annual Men Who Cook Summer Sizzler on Sunday, July 15 from 6:00 to 8:00 pm to kick off Harbor Days Festival Week.  This event features local chefs from throughout the South Coast area.  All proceeds benefit programs and services at The Women’s Center.

Last year’s event was an outstanding success with over 200 people attending.  TWC is hoping to build on the success of the first year and raise critical funds for local domestic violence, rape crisis and child trauma services.  There will be more chefs, more raffles and a smorgasbord of fine cuisine and South Coast favorites.

Just a sampling of chefs returning from last year are Chef Colby Rottler, owner of Commanding Cuisine Catering, local Chef Ken Dawicki and Men Who Cook veterans Chef Joe Perrone with his three sons, Chef John Larsen from Acushnet and Chef Joseph Cordeiro from Dartmouth.  Business donations are key to creating a successful event. Russell Morin’s Fine Catering is donating use of equipment to make cooking and serving more efficient.  New Bedford businesses Oceans Fleet Seafood have generously donated 30 lbs of scallops again this year and White’s Apartments donated another 10 lbs.  Clube Madeirense of New Bedford, a longtime supporter of Men Who Cook and The Women’s Center, is providing all the paper goods for the event.  A host of other businesses from throughout the South Coast are donating raffle prizes.
