Chefs Against Hunger Series

Culinary Collaboration and Charity Come Together to Celebrate Tellers Anniversary

Tellers, An American Chophouse, announces the inaugural Chefs Against Hunger series, in honor of its 20th Anniversary.

Chefs Against Hunger is a collaboration of some of Long Island’s most well-known culinary talent working together to support the local food-insecure community through a series of
intimate chef experiences.

The charity series was created to honor Tellers commitment to culinary excellence and the Bohlsen Groups continued support of the Long Island community. The Bohlsen Foundation will be donating proceeds from each event to Long Island Cares. Long Island Cares is the largest regional food bank on Long Island, and one of the most diverse hunger relief
organizations in the country, serving over 259,000 a year.

“Long Island's culinary landscape has changed quite a bit since we opened Tellers 20 years ago. Today, we are rife with great talent and restaurants tout wonderful expressions of Long Island's bounty.” Says Co-Owner Michael Bohlsen.

“While we are all ostensibly competitors in the same business, we are also aware that this rising tide lifts all of our ships. Therefore, we thought the best way to celebrate how far the food scene on Long Island has come over these 20 years was to bring together some of our best and brightest and use these efforts to help eradicate hunger for some of the less fortunate on the Island” continues Michael Bohlsen.

“We are extremely grateful to The Bohlsen Restaurant Group and all of the wonderful guest Chefs that will work their culinary magic at Tellers as part of this special event to support Long Island Cares mission to solve hunger on Long Island” adds Paule Patcher, CEO, Long Island Cares.
