Cyrus Todiwala prepares Seasonal Game Feast for ‘An Evening of Hope’
(7th November, London) Families of servicemen in need and ex-offenders on the road to rehabilitation will benefit from a charity bash – An Evening of Hope — being thrown on 22nd November 2011 by celebrity Chef Cyrus Todiwala and Pipe Dream, a new organisation dedicated to helping aspiring restaurateurs realise their dreams.
Chef Patron of landmark Indian restaurant Cafe Spice Namaste and the brand new Mr Todiwala’s Kitchen at Hilton London Heathrow Terminal 5, Cyrus will be creating a five-course gourmand’s menu featuring seasonal game specialities using all-British produce. Courses include Pheasant and Partridge Chilli Fry a la Goa-Portuguesa, Norfolk Turkey Nargisi Kofta Curry and Welsh Hen Crab and Mussel Chaat. Proceeds from the dinner, an auction, games and raffles will go to ABF The Soldiers’ Fund and The Clink Charity. Pipe Dream will be converting the Maze Inn in Southgate into a 70-seater dining room, while Game-To-Eat, the campaign organisation dedicated to increasing the eating and enjoyment of British wild game, will be one of the main sponsors of the evening.
Cyrus Todiwala said, ‘I am delighted to be able to help support two fantastic charities that are doing so much good during a time when our society is facing so many social and economic challenges. The ABF Soldier’s Charity helps individual soldiers and their families who have fallen on hard times by extending much needed financial support. This is the least we can do to thank these brave people for the sacrifices they have made to keep the rest of us safe. And I’ve seen firsthand how The Clink Charity helps prepare prisoners for a new life outside by providing them with catering skills and qualifications that can help build their confidence.’
Mike Matthews, Founder of Pipe Dream, said, ‘My partner Jim Patel and I are over the moon about having such an eminent chef as Cyrus Todiwala cooking for our Evening of Hope charity dinner. Pipe Dream relies on the support of established chefs like Cyrus to inspire up and coming chefs to make their dreams of owning a restaurant come true. This is one of the messages we want to send out on the night — never stop hoping you’ll be a success or overcome challenges because of you have the talent, attitude and most importantly, support, it can happen. This is what the charities Cyrus personally chose to support on the night are saying too, whether it’s to ex-offenders or servicemen.’
