Diane Rose, as a way to bring the best of the best together to help fight hunger, created Chefs Bite Back in 2003. Diane says, “Those of us who have a passion for creating food also have a true passion to help those who do not have food.” This year the event will be larger than any other year and has been underwritten by sponsorships as well as by donations of the generous chefs and wineries. Jo Mar Laboratory and Carol Burnett of Alain Pinel Realtors were first on board. Carol says, “This opportunity to be a part of helping feed the hungry of Santa Clara County make us especially proud to be a major sponsor.”
