Summertime holds so many exciting events at the Southern Food and Beverage Museum, such as the second cooking class by GW Fins Executive Chef and Co-Owner, Chef Tenney Flynn.  By the time June ends, SoFAB will barely take a breath before the annual gala.  Southern Food and Beverage Museum honors Chef Leah Chase of Dooky Chase’s by naming SoFAB’s Louisiana Gallery in honor of her.  The Leah Chase Gala will celebrate her tremendous contributions to culinary, the arts, and civil rights and will take place on July 2, with food from Southern restaurants, music, drinks, and a special cocktail created in her honor.  Don’t forget: This summer marks the one year anniversary of the Southern Food and Beverage Museum.  While in town, stay in the French Quarter!  Hotel St. Pierre and Andrew Jackson Hotel are steps from world famous Bourbon and Royal Streets, Jackson Square, Convention Center, Riverfront, and Aquarium of the Americas.
