Saints Heart and Vascular Institute's 8th Celebrity Chef event raised the bar even higher with an impressive stage and light show, an all new venue, local exhibitors, and a crowd of hundreds. Ingrid Hoffmann, host of Food Network's Simply Delicioso, lured in a crowd of 490 people to learn her heart, healthy cooking tips delivered with her upbeat stage presence.

Ingrid demonstrated a Grilled Rub-Down Chicken, Hearts of Palm Salad, and some delicioso Chocolate Truffles. Everyone in the crowd experienced a taste of the rich truffles, plus a few lucky event goers won door prizes valued from $50-$200. The event was a success by all measures.
