Guest Chef Night
A weekly highlight for the FareStart community is Thursday Guest Chef Night, held at the FareStart Restaurant at 7th & Virginia. For FareStart students, it is a unique opportunity to work with Seattle's premier chefs. For FareStart supporters, it's a great opportunity to enjoy an excellent meal, introduce new supporters to the organization, or volunteer. Since 1994, Guest Chef Night has raised more than $2 million, revenue which has gone directly back into our program, to support our student job training and placement services.
Every Thursday night, a different Guest Chef works with the students to prepare a three-course meal for over 200 guests served at the FareStart Restaurant. Guest Chef Night has been called "Seattle's best food lover’s event" and for just $24.95 it's one of the city’s best values as well. Hard-working community volunteers serve the guests who enjoy great food in support of FareStart and our students - 100% of the proceeds and gratuities from Guest Chef Night go back into the program and fund student services and training.
Guest Chef Night is open to the public and reservations are strongly suggested. For last minute requests, call 206-267-7601 to check for availability.
