Nineteen chefs from Del Mar’s leading restaurants will wine and dine guests at the 16th Annual Meet the Chefs of Del Mar on Sunday, April 22, from 1-4 pm, at the Hilton Del Mar. The event benefits Casa de Amparo, a San Diego leader in the treatment and prevention of child abuse and neglect. “April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month,” notes committee chair Laura McPhee. “Guests love being able to sample signature dishes from Del Mar’s finest restaurants all in one place. Best of all, the event supports a great cause and a great organization that has made such a difference to children and families in our community.” Tickets are $150 per person.
