Photo Essay: Meals on Wheels Gala 2019, part 2

The second of 2 photo essays for the San Francisco Meals on Wheels Star Chefs and Vintners Gala fundraiser of 2019 featuring behind-the-scenes and desserts.

Meals on Wheels San Francisco Star Chefs and Vintners Gala 2019

I recently shared photos from the appetizer portion of the Meals on Wheels Gala here in San Francisco. The event raised $3.3million and is one of the biggest food events here in the SF Bay Area.

That money will not only go toward helping feed homebound seniors but it will also help with the new kitchen that Meals on Wheels San Francisco is building. This new kitchen will allow Meals on Wheels to increase their meal output from 8,000 meals to 20,000 meals a day!

While the attendees were shown a virtual 3D tour of the new kitchen, the chefs and cooks were hard at work creating the 4 course sit down meal, after the appetizer portion and the finale, with the desserts. All in all, Gala was amazing! (Check out some of my previous Gala photos from 2018, 2017 and 2016).

Special thanks to Meals on Wheels San Francisco for providing tickets to the Star Chefs and Vintners’ Gala. I was not monetarily compensated for this post and all opinions are my own.

"Mr. Lin, a graphic designer in San Francisco who writes the food blog Eat the Love, takes risks in nearly every one of the 150 elaborate recipes in his book. He doesn’t just paint the lily; he bejewels and shellacs it, too."
–MELISSA CLARK for the New York Times

“My goodness, this cookbook! It’s filled to the brim with recipes for the most splendidly beautiful cakes, cookies, breads, and tarts I think I’ve ever seen. My eyes kept getting wider and wider as I turned every page—both the flavor combinations and the photos are out of this world. Irvin Lin has most definitely outdone himself. This book is a triumph!”
—REE DRUMMOND, New York Times best-selling author of The Pioneer Woman Cooks

“Irvin Lin gives home-baked treats a twist, ramping them up with a range of contemporary flavors that are sure to surprise and delight. From beer-battered brownies to smoky butterscotch taking a classic cake to the next level, I can’t wait to mix, stir, and bake my way through Marbled, Swirled, and Layered!”
—DAVID LEBOVITZ, author of My Paris Kitchen
