Chef Jeff is bringing his mission of transforming lives and providing second chances through food, especially to those that are in at-risk and underrepresented populations.
The competition will be made up of four teams consisting of one local professional chef, one Pima Community College student, and a local high school student. The local chefs include Chef Lindy of Thunder Bacon Burger Co., Chef Devon Sanner of Zio Peppe, Chef Gary Hickey of Si Charro and Flores Concepts, and Chef Kyrie of Tanque Verde Guest Ranch.
Each of these four diverse teams will compete against each other, and the top team standing will then compete against Chef Jeff. During the competition, Pima Community College will be offering scholarships to a few of these students (both high school and college).
Before the competition on Thursday, May 5, there’s a career and education expo from 2 – 8 p.m. and a VIP reception from 3 – 4:30 p.m. — be sure to check those out, too.
The event is free to attend and you can register for tickets online.

So, to celebrate Tucson’s specific location’s second year anniversary, Postino is teaming up with the University of Arizona’s Campus Pantry by donating proceeds from their anniversary promotion, the Wildcat Winedown, to the organization.
From Monday, May 9 – Sunday, May 15, those who stop by the restaurant can get $2 off favorite Arizona wines by the glass after 8 p.m. For every glass, $2 will be donated to Campus Pantry, which will use those funds to pick up grocery items for students and staff of the university.
“On average, a third of college students experience food insecurity at some point in their academic career and we’re excited to partner with Postino,” said Bridgette Nobbe, Coordinator of Campus Pantry.
In addition to the Wildcat Winedown $2 off deal, Postino is raffling off two annual memberships for their premier wine club, the Wine Cult — a cult that you’d be proud to tell your family about. All proceeds from the raffle will go to the Campus Pantry, too.
If you’d like to enter the contest and donate, you can do so online, and the prize winners will be drawn and contacted on Monday, May 16.

This of this event as the museum’s toast to the Sonoran Desert and all of its beauty — featuring craft beer from more than a dozen brewers, a handful of local food trucks, dancing, and an audience of regional wildlife.
This event is celebrating Endangered Species Day, giving everyone the opportunity to learn about the importance of protecting endangered species (like our Mexican gray wolves, for example). Plus, it’s a reminder that your everyday actions can help out the critters of the desert.
Only folks 21 years and older are allowed at the event, so leave those kids and strollers at home. Tickets, which tend to sell out quick, are $49 for General Admission, $139 for Pursuit of Hoppiness VIP, Designated Driver tickets start at $25 each, and there’s even an Animal Spotlight add-on for $8 (an exclusive 30-45-minute tour).
