The conversation highlighted ticket details, the event's atmosphere, and the camaraderie among local chefs.
It's you know a great way to support amazing causes and have fun and you get to taste this food and then you get to decide, okay, I want to go back to their restaurants and try their food. I like that. That's the cool part about it, John, right? Like it's it's you go and you take your wife or your friends or whatever, and you're like, oh, that was really good. I didn't even know this place existed in Louisville. Let's check it out. You grab their pamphlet, you go and have dinner with your friends and family there. You you you get the it just the the atmosphere is worth a million dollars and it only costs you 90 bucks to get a ticket. You can't beat that. It's the best of the best, and I promise you're gonna go out of there. Your taste buds will be happy, you'll feel good in your heart. You know, you we say we're a culinary town, but if Khalil, you know this. It's true. You can you can go to the food network, any food publication. Louisville has always mentioned we've got chefs who have been on, you know, all of these contests on TV and they continue to win them. Yeah. Talk a little bit about the pride you have as a restaurant owner. Oh, it I mean, the the pride that I have is the experience and the ability to be in the same room with these great culinary professionals. Um, and it just gives me a um just a sense of hope that their skill and talent will rub off on me. No, you've got plenty of talent, my man. And you're doing a lot for the city. I appreciate it. Ronna, okay, feed Louisville, being a part of this for you. As a chef and as someone who is doing something, as you said, Khalil, God's work. This is a great combination, isn't it? And chefs, I find it's kind of you can sorority, fraternity. It is a brotherhood, isn't it? I mean, it isn't like don't go to this restaurant, oh, we're really competitive. It's like, no, let's all work together, make Louisville a better place to live, right? Yes, absolutely. I mean, I've always experienced this kind of camaraderie and support amongst uh, you know, uh all the different restaurants, even when I was, you know, before Feed Louisville, when I was operating a restaurant, you know, you see this willingness to support each other. And then when it comes to something like hunger relief, I mean, I always say keep your chef friends close because they really do. They'll feed you in the worst of times, best of times and worst of times. So Louisville comes together at a taste of Little the 52nd annual. You need to be there.
